Not sure if this is hoax but I read via Tomshardware that Ebuyer reportedly closing its doors — staff at UK’s second biggest PC retailer sent home early, company sued for liquidation.

Frasers Group has a habit of buying distressed retailers cheaply and similar has happened with MatchesFashion, Jack Wills, Game, and others.
