Yea I had same thing happen. This Target has been stocked at least 4-6 weeks in a row every Thursday or Friday. If not Thursday then Friday morning for sure. Today nothing.

Stopped by my personal most-successful WM so far (thanks to stumbling across the rep stocking at 9 pm on a Friday a few months ago lol) earlier today, and it appears they are getting rid of cards - at least for the time being. What was once a full aisle in the checkout area with mostly Pokemon/Magic/etc. and some empty shelves where sports sometimes shows up is now mostly candy (or soda - I didn't pay much attention other than noticing it wasn't cards) and a few feet of the aforementioned non-sports collectibles. Checked with someone else who I've seen at retail stores searching for cards, and he said another WM that has consistently had plenty of empty display boxes of sports cards has changed the aisle up a bit. Not sure how, exactly, but it doesn't sound promising.

Just missed the vendor at the ghetto San Jose target today. Plenty of Champions Path Pokemon (no elite trainer boxes, those were backdoored) and a lonely Raichu Hidden Fates tin. Sports wise there was plenty of Donruss football blasters, hangers and fat packs which was cleaned out by a raiders fan when I was looking at the Pokémon cards. Also Chronicles Baseball Blasters, Allen and Ginter blasters and complete Topps sets.

Anything with a 2.5x+ secondary market resale value is being backdoored. The only remotely valuable product that has hit the shelves in 2 months is Donruss Football.

I have to imagine that this is the work of one or more local brick & mortar gaming mainstays, as any "general" online flipper would buy anything, including Donruss retail, that could generate a few bucks.

The only thing that I can say that just makes no sense, I found a full gravity feed of A&G in a weird tucked away spot in a Target on a Thursday and when I went back to the store 3 days later it was completely cleaned out. Just can't explain that.

There's nothing being stocked right now that's 2.5x value.
The best that you can get right now is mosaic football.

There won't be anything on the market anytime soon that will be 3x market value except maybe prizm football.

Yeah we've got no new retail until Nov.6th with Topps Update. Hopefully this means things will slow down in Targets/WalMarts so we can start getting product.

Been finding donruss football lately in all retail formats. I do go the days the stocker comes but I go after work . I have no idea what actual time they are there.

Also the coupon is unlimited. So stop and start over once you hit $100.

For sure. I’d be surprised if it’s under 4x.

Fight back TBP! Demand 1 CASE! Tell them it's still a quantity of 1! I'll support ya brotha!

This is a classic case of taking the limits to the extreme. I have no issue with limits but at least think stores should be more reasonable about it.

The only thing the Excell rep around here had to restock today at 4-5 Targets was a few fat packs and tins of UD Hockey...

Everything else was already gone by the time they went to restock.
