eBay did not loose much money on the Skype acquisition. They were able to sell for what they bought it for which not a bad deal.

- potatolicious 16y agoStill a bad acquisition overall - one of those "what were they thinking" things? It's like they bought a company because it was cool, not because it had a place in the portfolio or they offered something of value to the core business (or even a tangential spinoff business).
- vamsee 16y agoUnless Skype made them a lot of money to make up for it, what about interest on that $3bn?
