You placed 2 orders of 6 megas and the second transaction went through?

I tried this and the second transaction of 6 got canceled. Looked like it went through and then I received an email saying they were canceled.

Two accounts with two different shipping addresses.

Yeah, and I was actually ordering two orders for two different households in different cities: 1 for me; 1 for my dad. But I guess the same Target account can't place two orders. Called my mom and she was able to navigate the Target website to get 6. My dad would still be trying to find them even if I sent him a direct link.

Tried this as mentioned: two addresses in two different cities. Were you not logged into a Target account?

Yeah I’m not going to complain though. If they still sold these is stores I may have been able to get 2 instead of 12.

I went ahead and got the max of both. I don't really care if I'm getting some massive bargain, I'm content to get to open some stuff and have some smaller dollar items that I can sit on and trade/keep LT. If Austin Martin winds up being a stud then any sort of sealed product will do well long term.

Sorry forgot to also say, two different access IPs. One on phone over cell and one my home internet.

I was able to place (2) orders of 6 each for the mega boxes....will probably keep 6 sealed and open 6.

Thanks for the heads up

This is what retail shopping in 2021 looks like, "stopped in" to a forum to get online at the right time...ha.

Managed to get 3 Contenders Bball and 3 Bowman Megas.

More then enough to open, whenever I get greedy and try to add more to my cart, checkout always fails. I'll take it!

So what did Target do differently with Bowman Mega's that they didn't do the last 12-16 months? This is the first time I've seen a product last more than five minutes online, and this particular one is usually one of the hottest items each year, it was fairly hard to find in stores before the pandemic even.

Is it because there is so much more product available online since they aren't selling any in stores? Is it because Topps printed so much more? Is it because their 6 per account limit is stopping the bots this time?

very very few ended up in stores so they loaded all they had on the website (more than 100k) and they cancelled attempts to place more than one order. Also, bots are hunting basketball and football, not baseball.

This product is selling on the resale market (StockX) for $38 per mega. At $30+tax for MSRP, there is zero profit for flippers. I’m perfectly fine with it!

I see them selling for around $50 on eBay...but I suppose once you take out fees and shipping, it drops to a pretty tight margin for the flippers.

Target isn’t make it fair for us west coasters. Are the Bowman blasters the only product that’s left?

With 100,000 boxes loaded probably not too many more reloads. There was a 50,000 reload last week. Not sure how many went to BN and other outlets but Target had the largest amount.

Exactly no product in stores since it was removed and now all of the product condensed probably in 1-2 major warehouse across the nation. Instead of product being delivered daily all across the nation over months this is a simple way to put it all online and once it’s sold out it’s gone . Shorter inventory period and less hassle stocking at stores for Target.
