ARE PEOPLE HAVING PROBLEMS BUYING THE NXT ELITES/BASICS

nope, no problem at all at the store I found them at. They were in the back but the guy went and grabbed the 2 I wanted w/ no issues

Mostly because I dont get paid until Tuesday. Ive got a couple stores that seem to be honoring the street date. Others...have depleting stock...

They are not street dated. If they were street dated Mattel would have printed it on the cases. Some stores are holding them until the 18th because that is when they are scheduled to reset the department. So the product is in the backroom on pallets with no official location for them on hold for when they reset the aisle. And once they reset the aisles by putting the NXT tags with the dpci on them onto the pegs they are going to want to have the product to put on the pegs. But there's no official street date to them.

When I got mine I had gone to that Target early in the morning to see my friend who works there because he had something else for me, but I knew they weren't in stock as the Tracker had shown zero in stock when I had left the house. Later that afternoon I happened to look on the tracker again and it said they had a case. I then called the store and asked to speak to my friend, but he was already gone. So I asked to speak to someone in electronics and got the Team Leader for Toys/Electronics and I gave him the dpci #. He told me none of the tags had that dpci number. So I told him they were a brand new item and according to brick seeker site they had just received them that day. He said there was no pegs in the aisle for them and no backroom location either. I then explained to him they were a brand new item and he then said hold on for a couple minutes as there was one other place they might be. A few minutes later he said he found them in the stockroom and would hold the ones I wanted for me. 20 minutes later I had them. When I got there the case was behind the counter in electronics and there was no street date on them. If they were street dated he certainly wouldn't have sold her to me because the store would get in trouble.

This dude at target gave let me open the case of basics no question asked

Just ask to speak to an ETL (executive team lead) Its basically the manager on duty. If you have proof that something is there, they'll sell it to you. Your team leads and red shirt schmucks usually wont go that far.

If they weren't restricted to an American store then there would be no problem.

No prob for me, the lady had a worker bring the case of elite to customer service for me & I even got to open the case. Got a full set no hassle at all.

NO MOST PEOPLE ARE NOT

The only problem I have had with them is the WRONG KICKPADS FOR SETH!!!!! Ugh...still angry over this.
