Amazon Reportedly May Buy Some Toys R Us Locations

Amazon is considering buying some Toys R Us locations, according to Bloomberg News.  Toys R Us filed for bankruptcy in September.

It announced last week it would close or sell  all of its U.S. locations .

But there was some discussion of a potential buyer saving some of those locations.  That doesn't seem to be the case here.

Sources say the goal of a purchase would be to use the stores' physical locations for Amazon's own endeavors.

Amazon launched Amazon Go, cashier-free brick-and-mortar stores, in January, and it purchased Whole Foods last year.

If a purchase goes through, online competition will have officially ended Toys R Us.

Web retailers like Amazon were major contributing factors to the company's downfall.
