i just wish they would do it when people are awake on the west coast. it’s pretty shitty to continue to drop at 3-4 in the morning.

I’ve often refreshed the site around 11am est hoping for this…

it’s honestly pretty surprising they continue to do it, i’m sure they get regular feedback. it’s an FU to west coast consumers. they could just as easily drop at 11 like you said and not 6-7am.

They havent even released Target Prizm Megas or 24ct retail boxes. Im not sure why the delays but they usually get all retail out before or soon after Hobby. That date was late March.

They sold 20,749 blasters in less than 15 seconds? My notifications must have been delayed.

Solid day for me. Was about to start on a task at work, when I randomly refreshed Target to see that the links to the items about to be dropped were preloaded. So dropped what I was doing and refreshed the crap out of the page. Started off getting 10 Prizm blasters, then I started getting a lot of notifications as people were realizing products were being dropped. Missed the Select, and waited for the Prizm multipack box, but I just couldn't score any. Probably should've went with one box. Followed it up with 4 NFL Contenders blasters & an NBA Contenders fat pack box.

I'm regretting trying to change the quantity to 3 on the Prizm multipack box. Should have just tried to zoom through but it's so hard to not get greedy lol.

Other than “favorite” it did you flip the little notification switch on the page? Sometimes they don’t have it (select blaster)

It’s not crazy. It’s only 2000 checkouts. It was gone in like 20-30 seconds maybe.

On the plus side the site seemed more responsive today (probably because no one expected it)

How do folks determine the sales run numbers?

The notifications from Target come too late. The stock has already dropped and discord groups have sent notifications. Too bad Target notifications don’t come quicker.

#@#@#@#@, now I see the card I used for the multipack box got declined. So I actually had the order in, but my bank was decided it was fraudulent activity. Damn.

it's more checkouts than that, a lot of bot users used quantity 3 and a lot of manual people grab one because they are afraid to change quantity for fear of missing out. Couple that with nobody expecting the drop and the West Coast being pretty much left out, and its pretty wild they went that fast still. Sign of the times I guess.

It was definitely closer to 60 seconds than 20, I hit 10 manual from the app of all places. I wasn't immediately on it either.
