This was due to Covid and has nothing to do with toys. They also stopped checking stock over the phone, because people were calling all day asking if they got in TP and hand santizer.

I can understand that, for me I check Popfindr, I go to Target for normal supplies and look at the toys aisle. I may ask and associate while I am there if I have reason to and can find one.

Actually, now that I'm thinking about it, I even had one location that specifically said they no longer put toys or collectables on hold for anyone. I called a good 20 locations total, over the course of several weeks. (Not every location every day, chasing popfinder leads essentially) But over that time, I noticed a clear change in policy, and the way they went about requests. Anyway, just my opinion based on my experience, your milage may vary.

Popfindr is extremely accurate with Target stock and updates at 5pm eastern.
It is complete bullshit with all other stores. There are no walmarts around me so I cannot verify but Walgreens for sure is almost always wrong. But as far as the Joes go, the Target popfindr is 100% accurate in my area. Its actually uncanny. |

I found a Baroness at a Target store. They had two on hand and I purchased one of them. Within 20 to 30 mins Popfindr showed 1 on hand instead of 2. I also had to call them and they put out one Baroness for me. Sounds like they are onto collectors and didn't want to put both of them on the floor to be scooped up. I haven't seen anything in about two weeks. They only stocked Baroness and no other figures. Now I wonder if they are no longer being stocked.

Again, disagree on the accuracy. I have had no less than 6 individual examples of walking into Target and finding Troopers and Baroness on the shelf and PopFindr showing zero in stock.

If it says zero I find zero. Good for you to have found troopers and Baroness when it says zero. That would be cool. LOL. |

Hey everyone, after the Pulse con Target Viper sell out I've been doing Target.com surveys and one item buys to get the receipt survey to let them know what is going on.
I got a response back today, and the customer service representative said in the email that "we have sold out of that brand due to popular demand". Sorry, but if the Customer Service people have gotten the message that Cobra Island is sold out, then that means there is no more product out there. Good luck in the hunt for leftovers, but this whole situation leaves a horrible taste in my mouth. |
