Well I know some of us are or have fallen into victims in this case, but my friend (and some of you guys) may be right that they should've release these cards to the other stores to avoid frustration. Looking at the reviews, there has been 1 star negative reviews since other ppl have been trying to get the cards, but haven't said a word of a review about it from the store site. I don't know what the store's deal is, but i dunno how the store will deal with this problem or rather how nintendo and/or sanrio will deal with the problem.
I did look at another related article about the card packs. it seems that the scalpers have skyrocketed the price of the card packs. i mean seriously, no one will buy card packs at that (or those) kind of prices.
Good for targetI believe Target removed all the 1 star reviews with words due to the reviews most likely being about not be able to get the cards opposed to reviewing the actual product.
This ^ but I disagree about the approach of taking out the reviews. First of all someone not aware of the whole fiasco may actually believe the product itself is bad hence the 1 star ratings upon first glance; secondly consumers should have the right to review a product factoring in their purchasing experience. Of course, leaving a rude review would be completely uncalled for, but there's no rule to say that a review should solely based on evaluation of product quality. In fact, I think a lot of people were turned off by how Target handled the launch of the sanrio cards this time that it might have impacted their opinion about purchasing from Target on other items in the future. In such case, I think Target needs to hear these feedbacks and know how to improve to avoid same mistakes again.I believe Target removed all the 1 star reviews with words due to the reviews most likely being about not be able to get the cards opposed to reviewing the actual product.

You’re a better person than me. My Red Card is still safe in my wallet lolThis. I have since canceled my Target card and account and have deleted the app, etc. I will never purchase from them again. My store began selling them in person at 8 am. Had I known they were going to do that, I would've been there waiting outside before the doors opened. They were sold out completely before the app would even let me attempt to purchase at 9 am. (I am EST.) I never even had a chance and had no clue. I wasted 2.5 hours that morning trying to get the app to work with no idea that it was hopeless to start with.
Maybe it would, maybe it wouldn't.But, if more people stood up to Target for these shenanigans and put their money where their mouth is, maybe it would hurt them a little.
I agree. To each their own, but I like shopping at Target and this isn’t enough to stop me from doing so. No disrespect to anyone who feels differently, but I don’t see it as a reason to do my own little protest to Target.Maybe it would, maybe it wouldn't.
But without everyone doing it all you achieve is hurting yourself.
And of course, everyone is going to care to various degrees. This wouldn't be enough to stop me shopping somewhere I like.
Of course do what you feel is right but yeah.
