• After two years of legal wrangling, a New Jersey judge has ruled that Amazon.com violated its exclusive contract with Toys R Us when it allowed vendors to use its portal to sell toys and baby products. The judge severed the contract that was supposed to bind the companies together for a decade, allowing Toys R Us to begin operating its own e-commerce site. However, he did not assess Amazon with any fines or damages.
While Toys R Us had filed suit against Amazon alleging breach of contract, Amazon had counter-sued charging the toy retailer with not living up to its fulfillment obligations.
Amazon said it was disappointed with the decision and would consider an appeal.
