Toys "R" Us Selling Used Games

Wayne, N.J. – Toys “R” Us has begun selling pre-owned games at most
of its 587 stores nationwide.

The effort follows last year’s launch of a video game trade-in
program at the nation’s No. 1 toy chain.

The moves mirror Gamestop’s successful buy-sell model for used software,
which is also being emulated by

.

Toys “R” Us will offer a broad selection of pre-owned games,
priced less than $30, within the chain’s electronics departments, a spokesman
said.

Separately, the company is also rolling out about 600 pop-up
“Express” stores in malls and shopping centers across the country, effectively
doubling its brick-and-mortar footprint in advance of the holiday season.

Toys “R” Us launched the program last year with nearly 90 Express
locations, many of which have remained open through 2010. The retailer has
already opened nearly half of this year’s crop of 4,000-square-foot shops,
beginning in June.
