Once stock gets to a certain point where they have little left the website won’t let you order online, so going to the store is probably worth a shot in that case. Stores don’t open for an hour yet over here, or I might have tried that.

I think they have their stock totally messed up anyway. Anyone who places an order probably won't have it honored in my area since cards are being sold to customers at the electronic counter.

I understand the complications of running a small business, but I'm failing to get how selling NFC tags/cards on Etsy for an insane markup is any better than scalping. I woke up an hour ahead of launch to get my cart ready and just now stopped spamming at checkout. I didn't end up with the cards, and the website forced me to empty cart. Went on Etsy to see if I could get an unofficial pack and lo and behold, vendors are really showing their rears today.

Controversial opinion, but there is absolutely no reason to sell a 6 dollar pack of cards for 40 bucks. I get charging double. Sure. But these cards take literal pennies to make and media (cards, cds, books) are among the cheapest things to ship in the US. To me, this is not business. It's taking advantage of desperation and hype.

Target made a mess of this, that is for sure!

I got confirmation for my pack but still waiting to be told I can pick it up. My worry is I pull up to pick-up my pack and get told "oh sorry, we got our stock count wrong and don't have any" because people have been walking in and buying them.

I'm scared of that too tbh but my pick up email said I had until Monday to go get them so I think they hold the online orders and the ones people are walking in to buy are the ones people haven't bought online yet

This is my worry . My mom is going to pick my pack up for me, I just hope they don’t cancel it . This should not be so stressful.

To those heading physically to Target, remember to wear your masks & try to distance.
Just felt I'd post a reminder since it seems people all over are flocking to get these and we are still in the middle of a pandemic.​

 

[Marshmallows]

Was trying to order them for the past hour and now says no stock. The closest stores say "limited stock, not available for pickup"... what? I'm really hating Target's website now. It shouldn't be this complicated. I wish they would have had them on the shelves for first come, first served.

Hopefully there'll be a restock...

Let's not go down the rabbit hole of discussing illegal cards, please.

 

[jiny]

theres 6 packs left at one of my local targets im glad i got a pack when i did!!

 

[Mick]

Regardless, the situation is what it is, and there's not enough stock to meet the demand. Hopefully Target will get more in, but honestly I always felt like this was going to be a one-time thing. I pray I'm wrong, just based on this thread alone there's still considerable demand for these cards!

Yeah, not much we can change about this. There's definitely demand, and not bringing in any more stock when the first shipment sold out this fast seems like an incredibly poor business move! Let's hope for the best.

Looks like my order went through and is now available for pickup. I got 2 packs, the 2nd one I'm going to offer to a coworker first but if she doesn't want it then I'll pay it forward and offer it up here

 

[Twinsouls1145]

i am so sorry about this yall. my friend just got me one at their target but they live like. in another state than i do lmao. i hope yall can get them at the next restock

 

[JasonAldeanMG]

Kinda off topic, is it likely Nintendo will do another reprint of Series 1-4 ?

 

[Fawg]

These cards have been printed before. This is a reprint.

Ahhh, ok, thank you

 

[ForbiddenSecrets]

Me, my wife, and my friend [who lives in a different state so has different stores to try] all couldn't get one. What a mess.

 

[AccfSally]

Goodness! this thread. I have a Target right near my house, but I'm not sure if they have these cards in stock.

 

[Eureka]

Guys please be aware that apparently even if your order is processing it can still get canceled. I'm not trying to stress us out even more with this info but I just want us all to be mentally prepared in case it happens. I've been seeing people are having their orders cancelled.

I'm staying hopeful since the store I ordered at isn't even open yet.

 

[JasonAldeanMG]

I truly did not expect some Animal Crossing cards to end up like the Hunger Games.
This was a nightmare and I feel for everyone who tried to do the right thing and order online. Only reason I was able to grab my pack of cards was I went to the store and grabbed them.

 

[tajikey]

My concern with ordering was if I placed an order if the store would hold my cards until I could get there to pick them up. Once I found out that people were walking in and buying them I don't think they were reserving any for online orders.

My stores don't open for another 36 minutes, so hopefully they're pulling mine before the stores even open.

 

[Marshmallows]

That's another thing.... the cards should have gone on sale at midnight or an hour before stores open. For East coasters, the store was open already and cards already snatched up possibly. I know my store opens at 8 and cards went on sale online at 9.

 

[Kate86]

Aaaand my order just got cancelled.
