LIBERTY MEDIA CORPORATION

and

QK HOLDINGS, INC.

 

Pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

in respect of

 

GSI COMMERCE, INC.

 

This Report on Schedule 13D relates to the common stock, par value $.01 per share (the “Common Stock”) of GSI Commerce, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer” or the “Company”).

 

This Amendment No. 8 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Statement on Schedule 13D filed by Interactive Technology Holdings, LLC (“ITH”), QK Holdings, Inc. (“QK”), QVC, Inc. (“QVC”), Comcast Corporation, Comcast Holdings Corporation, Comcast Programming Holdings, Inc. and Comcast QVC, Inc. (collectively, the “Former Reporting Group”) on September 22, 2000, as amended and supplemented by Amendment No. 1 thereto filed on October 6, 2000, Amendment No. 2 thereto filed on August 29, 2001, Amendment No. 3 thereto filed on May 19, 2003, Amendment No. 4 thereto filed on July 29, 2003, Amendment No. 5 thereto filed on September 19, 2003, Amendment No. 6 thereto filed on October 2, 2003 by Liberty Media Corporation (“Liberty”), QVC, QK (each a “Reporting Person,” and collectively, the “Liberty Reporting Persons”), and ITH, which Amendment No. 6 constituted the original filing of a report on Schedule 13D by Liberty, and Amendment No. 7 thereto filed on February 11, 2005 by the Liberty Reporting Persons, which Amendment No. 7 constituted the first amendment to the original filing of a report on Schedule 13D by Liberty (the original Schedule 13D filing together with all amendments thereto collectively, the “Original Filing”).  This Amendment also constitutes Amendment No. 2 to the original filing of a report on Schedule 13D filed by Liberty on October 2, 2003. 

 

The purpose of this Amendment is to report the entry by Liberty into the total return swap with respect to the Common Stock described in Item 6 below.  This Amendment is not intended to amend or otherwise affect the Original Filing to the extent the same was filed by and relates to the Former Reporting Group.

Item 5.

Item 5 of the Original Filing is amended by replacing the second and third paragraphs of clause (a) thereto with the following:

Accordingly, Liberty, QVC and QK may each be deemed to have beneficial ownership of 25,550,914 shares of Common Stock, which includes (i) 8,218,968 shares of Common Stock received by QK in the Distribution, (ii) warrants to acquire 300,000 shares of Common Stock received by QK in the Distribution, (iii) 8,378,096 shares of Common Stock (which includes outstanding options to acquire 1,237,500 shares of Common Stock) beneficially owned by Mr. Rubin (based upon information contained in the Issuer’s Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on June 9, 2005) (the “Proxy Statement”), and (iv) 8,653,850 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by SOFTBANK (based upon information contained in the Proxy Statement).

The foregoing 25,550,914 shares of Common Stock constitutes approximately 55.6% of the Common Stock outstanding, based upon (i) a total of 44,443,859 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of November 4, 2005, as reported in the Issuer’s Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended October 1, 2005, filed with the Commission on November 15, 2005, (ii) assumed exercise of warrants to acquire 300,000 shares of Common Stock received by QK in the Distribution, and (iii) assumed exercise of options to acquire 1,237,500 shares of Common Stock held by Mr. Rubin (based on upon information contained in the Proxy Statement).
