ToysRUs - Liquidation and Closings thread
Will share the news as it comes up
|
Somewhat good news, but still sad to see so many people lose jobs. Retail needs to thrive to allow certain people to have jobs. Not everyone can afford or make it through college.
33k losing jobs is sad. At least 200 stores may survive, probably mostly on the coastal cities, but still bittersweet as TRU has a chance to still be seen by kids and future generation(s) at least I hope it's a silver lining. |
If Toys R Us gets permanently closed down, where the hell are the kids going to buy their toys now?

Heck, according to a thread on /toy/, Walgreens might become a more dedicated toy retailer now and return to an era when drug stores regularly and actively stocked toys more than just in a token way, with NES consoles even being sold at them back in the 80's. |

Bankruptcy sucks.

Sad, but the golden age of these types of stores has long past. Besides stiff online competition kids just don't play with toys very long if at all. The age window grows shorter with each generation.

This had less to do with declining sales and more to do with the torch and burn industry that is equity firms, but sure. Let's keep saying that competition is what did them in.
And that's all I'm saying on this matter. |
Well... at least TRU UAE is still around... for now...
