I got the tracking # for Select Megas already but nothing yet for boxes of Topps Chrome I ordered from the Tuesday Restock.
I finally got my Chrome shipping notice a few hours ago.

I've had zero problems with any of the cards from Target shipping being damaged. This is where it is an advantage that Panini makes a mega box that can fit 75 packs only have 8 packs in there. Tons is padding and open space on all sides. You could cave in one of the ends three inches and still not touch a pack.

Lack of packing materials shouldn't be a problem unless the package gets crushed in transit or it's something heavy like a factory set. Most times if your card boxes look a bit beat up, it means they weren't delivered in a master case to the shipping center but thrown in willy nilly in a mishmash of different products.

Even though cards that non-bots can get on Target are mostly useless for flipping, it's still nice to get undamaged boxes.

Any one having an issue with their Target favorites loading on a PC? I cannot get mine to show on a PC. The page loads but no items appear. I know I have plenty of items saved other than cards that should show and they do in the app. Cleared cache/tried different browsers and even a second PC, no dice. My wife's account favorites load fine on my PC. Target chat support was useless told me to call the specialist team.

Just wondering if this happened to any of you and how you got it fixed?

My favorites didn't work for the longest time and one day they decided too. Haven't found a rhyme or reason for it. Doesn't sound like Target.com has either.

Depending on the item they sometimes take away products. All the basketball is gone from mine, but I do have select football fat packs, prestige Megas, & Topps factory sets.

I would expect that Prizm is now done for this year. Select I'm sure will be back though and maybe they are trying to fool the bots by using another URL for the next drop.

I’m guessing Select hangers come this week. They’ve had really big drops of both blasters and megas for a couple weeks now, but still no hangers so those should be next. I agree about Prizm…they had a super small stock of a couple things last week, so even if they’re not totally done yet, humans won’t have a chance so it won’t really matter at this point.

Yes after 80k Megas last week I'd hope they're done .

The Topps factory set is back in stock, I have $20 in gift cards and 10% off when I use PayPal, anyone think it's worth it at a cheaper price?

Personally I'd rather have the green Walmart sets for the chase

Yeah, that's what I was thinking, plus I'd rather save the $20 in Target GCs for something else later (Bowman Chrome next month?).
Thanks!

Bowman Chrome has been hobby only until last year there were BC megas, but only sold through WMs.

What ended up being in the Bowman Chrome mega boxes to cause them to go up so much? I remember people calling them junk when it came out. I picked up a few initially but left a bunch on the shelf as I too thought it was a dud release. I recall walking into a Meijer one time and it was filled with like 20 of them and that was the only thing left. I didn't buy any either. LOL

Not true there were other years there was retail BC, but there for a stretch it was hobby-only.

It was originally $40 or so? Now going for 90-100 so not a huge jump.

Yeah, 2013 and prior. But it has been a few years so did not know how relevant that was to the conversation.

Chance at autographs? That’s really the only draw.

That seems to be a lot of releases. 2019 Topps Update, everyone was trashing it, 2018 Topps Series 1 and 2020 Bowman Chrome Mega Box.

Plus it just takes one player to chase for the product and everyone will want it after it.

I think some of the base are going for decent money so worth it to mine some of the top prospects and possibly RCs.

It came out right in the middle of the frenzy when people were clearing shelves of everything. So, made it more notable that this was one of the few things that sat on shelves. I think re-sell prices were right around MSRP, or just slightly above, at the time of release as well, which is why it just sat. And now, you're looking at a price that is close to triple MSRP I believe (think Wally was $30 MSRP).
