Online seller eBay is rejecting an unsolicited $56 billion takeover offer from GameStop, calling the proposal "neither credible or attractive."

Ryan Cohen's GameStop disclosed earlier this month that it was pursuing a takeover of eBay, seeing it as a vehicle to compete with online retail giant Amazon.

The national gaming retailer said at the time that its approximately 1,600 U.S. stores could become drop-off and shipping locations. One proposal included live sales broadcasts from GameStop locations featuring eBay products.
