All Mail Orders from Beatties have stopped including the website one

All Stock from closed shops have been sent to the remaining shops, i think
Newbury is staying open, so is Sheffield and Nottingham.

Lets hope Beatties can turn around from the Money Sharks :-)

A bit more info:

...of the original 60ish stores, 20ish will remain open, but as already
stated, they will concentrate more on models. Where stores are big enough,
they will still cary toys too.

The unwanted stores are being sold off. Some have been sold to toy store
chains like Toy Stack who is owned by Hamleys, so that might be where the
Hamleys name came into the equation.
