Play It Again Sports is a national chain that was franchised locally by Dave Rust. It’s possible the company could name a new franchisee for the market, he said, although he tried selling the business without any luck.

“I had quite a few inquiries, and a few people took it a ways down the line, and for various reasons it didn’t work out,” he said, adding the decision to close was difficult because he knows the store brings value to many in the community, especially parents.

A closing date hasn’t been set, but all merchandise is discounted between 10 percent and 30 percent for now.

Local owner David Rust announced plans Wednesday to retire and eventually shutter the store at 3534 S. Western Ave.

Rust said it was very hard to decide to close Play it Again after running the city's only franchise location for so many years.

"I've been trying to figure it out for two months," he said. "We offer a service to the community with our pricing and trade-in and sale of used stuff that's going to be missed."

Play it Again has sold sporting goods to Sioux Falls customers for 28 years. The store will launch its going-out-of-business sale Thursday, with deals available to customers heading into Christmas.

However, Rust said he and his staff are already hanging signs for the sale and will honor prices a day earlier.

There is no closing date in the store's announcement it was closing, but Rust said he expects the inventory to quickly sell out.
