Ehh Panini doesn't know what the hell is going on. Two days prior to Target stopping all sales, Panini made a blog post saying that card sales would remain on Friday and nothing was really changing. SO yeah, no one at Panini is a reputable source

Megas also $45 so not sure what’s up with pricing.

Couldn't load either to cart but I was also probably late. Guessing without a discord to know right away there was no chance anyway.

Step in the right direction but they are out of touch with Donruss Diamond Kings being $39

That is a problem with a retailer settings arbitrary prices that do not reflect MSRP. Such a big company does such a weak job posting/pricing items on their own website

Wouldn’t have mattered what time you tried.

Sweet baby Jesus, not sure if that makes me feel better or worse. At least they got all those @ 45 bucks instead of 20 I guess.

Why does everyone do nothing but whine about bots instead of just buying their own? One google search shows me they are very cheap

There are three bots that hit Walmart, maybe one or two more. One is closed group you can’t get, another is about 30k, not sure I haven’t look inawhile. Def not accessible and DEF not cheap.

Some don't want to be a parasite. I'd also be super skeptical of any cheap bots you stumble across on a random google search. I hates the botters, but I do realize as soon as someone starts a blowout bot service I'd probably jump in under the old, "if you can't beat em ," mantra.

If I purchased more than one 12 count hanger lot, the order would be cancelled.

WalterAZ31 · 05-19-2021, 05:05 PM

Wouldn't surprise me one bit if walmart used bots to buy up their own inventory

multiple single addresses

You can format a single address a bunch of different ways. They all end up at the same destination(s)

For about 400 orders?!? Lol that's impossible to have that many address variations. Unless changing the first name counts. It's either just the same address or a bunch of forwarding address's. Either way Walmart doesn't care. If they cancel any orders the bot can just reorder or it will go to another bot.

JeremyNick · 05-19-2021, 05:29 PM

I feel like botting Wal Mart’s website is the equivalent of being able to beat up a small child.

Nah. Good bots will cost you a couple grand. Plus monthly fees for the cook groups. On top of servers, VPNs, VCCs. It’s not cheap and it’s time consuming.

Meanwhile people are camping for 1 box.

This guy gets 4100 hangers and will profit over $100k in this one drop.

LOL!

Retail is dead.

It will become "available" when the bubble bursts and it's no longer as valuable.

I hope the IRS looks extra close at all the botters that love to brag.

That means nothing ! At the end of day. They cant manipulate the other side. Until, a developer who can create a code to manipulate the time of purchase. It’s really over. If target releases a product at a certain time, where it goes live on the app or website. We have chumps on Twitter screen shot there cook, dude the time says 8:02am. The product doesn’t go live on the site until 8:10am

They know the problem, but our lazy to fix it. To fix this problem is not time consuming one bit for them. Trust me AIO, and others couldn’t beat the system. They create a software aka bot application to automate the checkout process faster then humanly possible. Proxies and VPN hide IP address, filter firewalls. At the end of the day, if I was running the security team. I would just have my team seat back, and joke about these guys. 5 minutes, cancel all the orders. Realistically no product with 15,000 boxes should sell out in a minutes.

It’s not rocket science, the people chirping our the ones who our cooking the system. I would love someone who can challenge my theory.
