Toys R Us collapse imminent as buyer walks away

Embattled toy retailer Toys R Us UK has edged closer to complete collapse with administrators poised to take control as early as Tuesday.
Sources revealed on Friday that the retailer’s frantic attempts to secure a buyer before the deadline for a £15 million VAT tax bill was due on Tuesday had failed, with a potential investor walking away at the last minute.
