Ya the place I was at had maybe 5 topps chrome value packs and 15 or so chronicles packs. 8 guys on line, I'm not a fan of the loose packs so I was hoping for a topps chrome value.

Then the lady had another box in the back and suddenly comes out 8 chronicles megas, 15 hangers and another 10 or so topps chrome values. I was 8th in line out of 11, poor guys behind me on the megas.

We all got one of each as per limit and I traded a chronicles pack to another guy for his topps chrome value pack prior to purchase.

Nobody really took the chrome so I went back in case they would just let me take the rest as I love opening these, and this guy was holding the last 7 and offered me 3 which I feel is fair, prob so I didn't say anything lol.
Overall, the hunt is what makes it fun. Even if no bball, I would have been happy with the chrome. But you need to take the bball just because.

It is amazing to me that people actually stand in lines at Target to be rationed sports cards. What a time.

Yea half a dozen college kids waited outside target today and just stared at all the fire, which was all that was there. Same product would have been emptied instantly a week or so ago. Another kids mom emptied the box of a&g six card packs, which probably cost more to acquire and list then you can sell them for.

You might just be in the wrong area.
Yesterday, Local target had 30 chronicles hangers (could have been 2 weeks of excell boxes) as that is my first time finding anything there.
Today, 7 fat pack boxes of chronicles at a different target. (both stores, definitely people waiting)
I thought product would have tapered by now, but I stand corrected.

Kind of a tease this morning, 3 full or semi full stadium club gravity, 1 full or semi full A & G, and about 12 archives blasters.

I've already found and bought some of all of these products so I left it all for the kids. Most product I have seen in a while and lately I have witnessed people waiting at wal marts for the first time.

Am I gonna regret not clearing out?

Someone will clean it out. But not worth it unless you collect those. Although i want some A&G retail

Also be very careful, my target had no returns if you have buyers remorse, only buy stuff you will definitely rip or store in the rainy day wax shelf

I've also been wondering that. I know selling wax is prohibited but I've never seen anything about trading. I can never find any more Chrome but I would definitely scoop Stadium Club, etc. & swap if I could.

I dont think you can trade wax either, but easiest bet is to scan over the rules page again.

I walked into a fully stocked Target in my area yesterday, couldn't believe it. Usually there are 2-3 people waiting when she arrives. The lady at the register said it was stocked 3 hours ago, I was stunned. There was no basketball, but I didn't see any spaces, so I don't think any came in.

There was about 20 hangers of Donruss Football, 3-4 blasters of Fire baseball, Allen and Ginter packs and blasters. Super suprised.

I decided to only take home 8 hangers of donruss and one Fire blaster. Also had a good convo with another dad and his boys about the hobby.

Either the guy(s) that buy it all had a long night and forgot to go out, or possibly they have overspent and not moving product as fast as they thought lol

Thats what I think too, but sometimes the local vendors will stock, let people take product, go to toys then come back and fill it back up if there's more boxes. I have been faked out too many times.

Yep, I've picked up a ton of these. I need to count up how many I have. These are a no-brainer buy given it's basically a free pack inside (even though both packs are not Darkness Ablaze; the other pack is from a less popular release but still a free pack!).

Been checking my Target about three times a week for Fire and the best I've done was finding four blasters one day. All of a sudden today it was fully stocked with nearly 50 fat packs, over 50 hangers, and 12-ish blasters. No boxes. Plenty of other stuff I didn't really pay attention to.

Anyway, blew about $250 and got about $20 of cards LOL One base auto. One base Luis Robert. Zero base Bo Bichette, but did at least get a Gold Minted Bo. And one Magenta Trent Grisham RC. That's all, folks! There's one of me born every minute!

No shipment today, and I'm on vacation for the next week, so no updates for a little while.

Don’t be too hard on yourself - you got to open a ton of packs, which is a rare treat this year. 👍
