Subject: Toys R Us preparing to liquidate

Written By: SeaCaptainMan97 on 03/08/18 at 6:20 pm

Toys R Us is going the way of Circuit City, Blockbuster, and Kmart. According to the Wall Street Journal and other sources, they're already making preparations for liquidation.

What's your input on this? What retail stores do you believe are next? What are some of your memories from Toys R Us?

When I got PlayStation 2 Slim, it didn't come with a memory card, so we went to Toys R Us to get one.  ;D

I think GameStop is next, though it won't go away for a while.

I usually went to Toys R Us from about 2003-2006 from what I remember. It used to be fun getting my Etch-A-Sketches there because I used to love those as a child. It's no surprise that Amazon is taking all of its profits since who would want to go to a store and see something that's more cheaper on the Internet.

If you've read now, the website is gone, if you check the site, it is no longer.

I thought Gamestop was going to go out of business last year.

The site is still up, but it gives us this notice.
