| Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. One of the cruelties of war... [REGNUM] In Russian toy stores, a shortage of the popular Monopoly and Uno games, produced by Hasbro, which left Russia, has begun, RBC reports on April 8 . Stocks of board games left over from last year are already depleted at many points of sale, and marketplaces often have no more than one set. New deliveries from abroad are not expected. On sites selling games, as a rule, there are only thematic versions, such as, for example, Monopoly of the USSR. Buyers note that some sellers offer them unofficial versions of the game, in many cases significantly inferior in quality to the original game. As previously reported, Hasbro has decided to leave the Russian market. Hasbro admitted that leaving Russia affected its financial results. On March 15, the Russian Ministry of Industry and Trade approved an updated list of parallel imports , which included Hasbro products. However, the situation with the parallel import of board games is complicated by the fact that they are not translated into Russian. |
