barrons3	Buy - Price 23.28 on Nov. 23 by Collins Stewart Target: 32. eBay has [recently] experienced some technical issues resulting in a search malfunction....Looking at the nature of the issues, surging merchants' listings is a good problem to have (largely responsible for the outages) and we don't think eBay has to invest heavily...to avoid or reduce system-unavailability instances....we reiterate our Buy rating and 32 target, derived by applying a multiple of 10.5 times to our 2010 estimated Ebitda of $3.44 billion (Ebitda per share of $2.59), adjusting for 2009 year-end net debt of $4.59 billion, or $3.52 a share, and 85 cents for eBay's stake in Skype....We're giving a higher multiple to eBay relative to our current estimate[d] long-term growth outlook; we believe that, with a sustainable rebound in its core business and PayPal being one of the fastest-growing...businesses online, the multiples will very likely expand. Market cap: $30 billion.	Love	November 28, 2009

barrons3	Another favorite is eBay (EBAY), the online-marketplace operator, which also sells online payment and communications services. Barron's profiled the company favorably in a cover story in the summer ("Make a Bid!" Aug. 3, 2009). It trades around 24, or about 15 times forward earnings. Miller has faith in the new management and sees the beginning of a turnaround. "It's more buyer-centric than seller-driven; it has a dominant position and no inventory risk," he says.

Stockpickr Staff	"On one side you have the big would-be buyers. On the other, there is a host of smaller players. The big fish are Amazon (AMZN), eBay (EBAY), Google (GOOG), Microsoft (MSFT) and Yahoo! (YHOO), according to Aggarwal." <a href="http://www.thestreet.com/story/10605255/1/google-yahoo-techs-top-deal-hunters.html" target="_blank">Read more from Scott Moritz here.</a>	Love	September 30, 2009

barrons3	He sees similar opportunities closer to home, such as eBay (EBAY), Apple (AAPL) and Ontario-based Research in Motion (RIM) -- which appeal to him because they, too, are global.	Love	August 02, 2009

barrons3	It's funny -- two I own, VMware (VMW) and eBay (EBAY), both ran up ahead and then kept running. But that's because they were so beaten down and expectations were so low.	Love	July 23, 2009
barrons3	Then you have to try to figure out how real Ford (F) is -- seems very real -- and whether I am right on eBay (EBAY) (I own it for Action Alerts PLUS) and wrong on SanDisk (SNDK) (a guest columnist says I sure am).	Love	July 23, 2009

barrons3	I am a continual believer that eBay (EBAY) should be purchased just for PayPal, and the company's recent presentation didn't do much to quell such thoughts.	Love	June 18, 2009

Stockpickr Staff	"Or Amazon (AMZN): It does just get better and better, with easy use hopping, better auctions than eBay (EBAY) and a new product that is universally loved, the Kindle. The company is just so well run that you marvel at its efficiency and how much money it can make on selling goods that, again, are not necessities."

barrons3	We've seen it going on since the market bottom, the endless driving of tech higher and higher. We get the wireless bottom, thanks Nokia (NOK); the personal computer bottom, thanks Intel (INTC); the gadget bottom, thanks Taiwan Semiconductor (TSM); the TV bottom, thanks Corning (GLW) and Best Buy (BBY); the software bottom, thanks to Oracle (ORCL) buying Sun Microsystems (JAVA) for its software and IBM (IBM) celebrating its software on its quarter; and the dot-com bottom represented by great earnings from Google (GOOG) and decent numbers from rejuvenated management teams at Yahoo! (YHOO) and eBay (EBAY).	Love	April 23, 2009
Stockpickr Staff	Hold the phones! At long last eBay (EBAY) is hanging up on its disastrous Skype acquisition. <a href="http://www.thestreet.com/story/10487261/4/five-dumbest-things-on-wall-street-april-17.html" target="_blank">For more, click here.</a>	Love	April 17, 2009

vikasd	The stock only prices the paypal business. Auction business will benefit from slower economic growth.	Love	January 03, 2009
barrons3	Q: Where are you nibbling? A: We're willing to settle for 10% to 15% gains in a four- or five-day period, rather than buy and hold, because one quarter today can ultimately destroy a stock. For example, eBay [EBAY] was a growth stock until in the fourth quarter of 2004, when it missed its number, and since then it has gone off the charts. You can't just have a wonderful long-term perspective. We are willing to set up for 10% or 15% gains, especially in a short time period, because we've seen the markets reverse so often and so swiftly.	Love	January 03, 2009
