eBay has acquired a minority stake in Turkey’s leading auction site, GittiGidiyor.com.  It’s really the first second global internet company acquisition in the Turkish market (after Ticketmaster’s acquisition of Biletix.  Thanks, Tahir).  More should follow, as Turkey’s significance as an internet market is getting more visible.

Congratulations to Serkan, Burak and Tolga, the founding team at GittiGidiyor.com, who have created a great company.
