If StockX was using phpass (which is a KDF that uses MD5 as a base but adds multiple permutations on top), it is quite a bit safer (but still not recommended and these hashes should be considered to be compromised).
The bigger issue is if they were actually using raw MD5 (which is sadly quite common), which is benchmarked at 25 billion (with a B) hashes per sec per GPU.
