Back in the day, eBay’s (Nasdaq:EBAY) acquisition of PayPal was not exactly universally praised. Not only did eBay pay a steep price (about $1.5 billion), but there were questions about whether eBay was throwing good money after bad in the wake of the failure of the Billpoint acquisition, and whether this was an unneeded step away from eBay’s core business of facilitating online auctions.
