@iskim I doubt the scalpers got most of them. They didn’t have anymore access to the app on launch day than any normal fan (you might argue..”but bots”), yeah but since it seems that a lot of stores were selling cards in person physically as well, then their “bot (bought) cards” were just as like to be cancelled as someone who chose to trust the website or app rather than going physically @ 9:00A.M.

The real fault is Target because instead of this hybrid web/physical launch, they should have just gone an all digital preorder (still limiting the order to 1-2 per customer, maybe even verified by web Internet address+payment to stop mass scalpers) OR gone all physical with “first-come-first-serve (still limiting those to 1-2 packs per walk-in)”.
