Listen: Toys R Us to Sell Intellectual Property

 

Toys R Us is looking to sell off its intellectual properties, creating what experts say to be one of the best brands to ever be sold by a company going out of business.

Domains such as lodges-r-us.com, burgers-r-us.com and even cigars-r-us.com are going to be up for sale as Toys R Us is in the aftermath of declaring bankruptcy in late 2017.

Though the company has fallen on hard times, it’s nice to know that the brand has left a lasting legacy for us.
