KB Toys files for bankruptcy


KB Toys has filed for bankruptcy for the second time in four years. The 80-year old company based in Pittsfield, Massachusetts, operates 460 stores and reported total debt between $100 million and $500 million, with total assets in the same range.

Things must be really bad: Most toy stores do as much as 50% of their sales in the weeks leading up to Christmas, but apparently KB didn't even think it could hang on and try for a Christmas miracle to save the company.
