Toys R Us faces bizarre race row over children's dolls
Toys R Us is facing a bizarre race row after selling a family of black dolls for £3 less than white ones.
The children’s retailer was found to have the ‘Wooden Dolls Family’ product of a white father, mother, son, daughter and baby figures on sale for £9.99 on its website.
However the ‘ethnic’ version - which features the same five dolls, but as black relatives wearing different outfits - was available for about two thirds of the price, at just £6.99.
A Toys R Us spokesman told The Sun that it had made a mistake, adding: ‘This £6.99 was simply a keying error on a pricing - the ethnic family should be £9.99 as well. The price will be changed.’

The professional complainers will always find something to fuss about on behalf of others who probably do not care anyway.
Hey Toys R Us, why don't you just admit that the "ethnic" version was just not selling and you wanted to move 'em?
A talking liberal doll it gose WHINE,WHINE,WHINE
What is this crap doing posing as news? Who beyond the professional whingers who really gives a shit? What would the whingers claim if the prices were reversed? Do black kids really want to play with the ethnic dolls?
Why do liberals always insist on being such a bunch of sniveling,whining little pansies?
