i live in knoxville tennessee and i was looking at targets website and they say most of the stores around here have the firebat and sharc so i go to taget nothing i went to one of the people and asked them if they had any that they were getting ready to stock he told me just figures no vehicles (not sure i believe him) i went to a couple of other targets and wal marts and tru and squat. has any one had this problem when a website says these stores have the items available?

all the vehicles have the same DPCI numbers. if they have 1 vehicle in stock, all will show in stock regardless of what it is. it kind of sux the way they do that. I went on a couple wild goose chases because of that gayness.

definetly, i did the target search in socal. the search says every single target in my area has the sharc, firebat ,rattler, and conquest. it was a lie. they never update that system. the onlt thing there was, was the rattler and conquest but those were there for like 2 weeks, i already have 2 so i didnt get them.

I didn't even mention what kind of peace of mind comes with knowing that your stuff will be hand carried to your doorstep instead of dealing with the anger and frustration of finding nothing in the retail stores. Just some advice, so throw it out if you wish. I know what works for me, and it's online shopping. |

Thanks for the compliment. Relating to online shopping, I discovered last year that I am happier with this concept. Scalpers and other collectors have driven me away from the retail circuits altogether. The odds of me finding something truly cool or unique are about 8:1. My averages are 1 major find for every 8 stores I visit. In the end, it amounts to a colossal waste of time and gas to do "store to store hunting" these days. PS... Send me a PM if you want some online websites and discount codes. I will do my best to help you out. |
