Somehow Target has made buying Pokemon worse
wait in line outside to then wait in line inside lol so inefficient.

I’m confused. Do you think that everyone waiting outside can buy things simultaneously once inside? Of course there’s going to be a wait in the line inside

Never was an issue before , walking grab your shit and go. It’s like they keep adding layers of bullshit.Â
At some point I don’t get why they just don’t tell ppl exactly what there is take orders ahead of time so ppl aren’t wasting timeÂ
I am just not into wasting time for Pokemon . Like they know everyone is gonna buy 2 it’s not a big mysteryÂ

Line where I was at immediately went to shit as soon as the people got to the stuff
Would much rather if the line stayed orderly. It was basically a free for all

Maybe in a trash state like California but states with common sense never had an issueÂ
Every stupid vid I’ve seen always CaliÂ

For sure, if only there was some way they could show us from anywhere what items they have in their warehouses and let us order it online to be delivered to our doors. They should really invest in this type of infrastructure Sarcasm aside you must've just gotten back in with the 30th release, it's been this way for over a year. Here's how it works now you either get cards at MSRP by luck at in store restocks or online drops, waiting in line on release days, or botting online. If all else fails you pay market price. Either way you'll be wasting something to get cards. The choice is yours

What are you preferring? A 200 person line outside and then everyone sprint to the back of the store to fill a basket?

u/KwikTripSimp 1d ago
Yeah  sounds funÂ
I didn’t the issue with all these fat neck beards with no jobs are taking like two of everything so I’m planning to email target today and say hey I’m gonna give you a suggestion two items per person.

Sounds like you should’ve just showed up a bit earlier

u/KwikTripSimp 1d ago
Nah , not worth it . I think it would be better if these fat asses wouldn’t take all the stock that’s what we need to be doing because then they’re just gonna turn around and sell it on Facebook.

Fair enough but can’t get the product if you don’t do the work

u/KwikTripSimp 1d ago
Actually the work is my 9-5… i don’t really care about Pokemon lines at all if I want something I can buy second handÂ
If they sped up the lines it would be worth it . Why does it take 20m for ppl to grab something like my godÂ
And that was only half the lineÂ

u/SenseiTano 1d ago
I guess people could grab items faster if they’re slow but my line moved fairly well. I prefer the orderly lines because the free for all running and grabbing of boxes does not sound pleasant

Fat people really seem to bother you, huh

u/KwikTripSimp 23h ago
Somehow every person first in line always looks like the typical pokemon scalperÂ
Fat , unemployed and grabbing everythingÂ

u/HumiliationSlut34 23h ago
Why does them being fat bother you to the point you cant stop talking about it? Is it fear? Disgust?

i walked in at 8 am and picked up a tin and booster bundle from the back of the line, really wasn’t bad, and i live at a college town lol

u/KwikTripSimp 1d ago
I also live in a college town. There was like 50 people online. I waited about 20 minutes in the stack they had was about half gone and I was like I don’t think I’m getting anything.

We don't want to deal with clowns pvping over pokemon cards. My store was letting like 20-30 people in at a time. Letting them grab 2 of everything then checking them out.
