How to buy Blockbuster shares

Invest in Blockbuster, the former high street staple, by buying BB Liquidating Inc. shares in just a few minutes.

Blockbuster bit the dust back in 2010 – filing for bankruptcy after consumers stopped heading out to rent physical DVDs in favour of streaming from the comfort of their homes. What remains of Blockbuster is now held by BB Liquidating, and interest in its stocks surged recently following threads on social media channels including Reddit.
