 It's still showing as in stock to me, in fact I haven't seen it go out of stock yet at target.
 Have other people seen continuous availability or have you been seeing it out of stock?
I have 0 doubt this is a winner but it is unnerving me that it is still available right now

Shows unavailable for me...been this way all morning...

target likes to give a false sense of availability on a lot of sets that have the red buy button.  buggy website.

now that its oos we can have fun picking them off F5 style when the inevitable handful are found.

Yeah, Target is having issues with false inventory.  I ordered one of the clone sets last week.  Said it was in stock, put it in my cart, checked out and didn't get any errors.  Looked at my email receipt and the set wasn't on the receipt.

Guess it's official now.

Why even bother selling them? I may pick some more up for the longer term hold if they're $40 on Ebay.

Edit: They're not $40....

that's weird...I just did a search a few minutes ago and saw 3 solds for around $40...gone now. 

I can confirm the sold prices I see now are avg $75...there was one for $45 a couple days ago.

Unless you could go the multiple account angle, I'm not sure you could have wound up with that many anyway with limit 1's.  Unless you are doing multiple accounts and risking ordering too much . . .

Agreed. I ordered 18 under one account and that was as many as I was comfortable with. Initially, I was going to try for about 50, but then after they started canceling orders, I didn't want to raise too many flags so ended up with the 18 from Target and 3 from LEGO Shop at Home.

[fourkidsbuilding]

I ended up with 3 from Lego and 11 from Target.  All one account.  I had my second to last order cancelled through Target so I stopped shortly after.

[Saruman]

I didn't have a target account. But am super happy that I bought 3. Tonight, I will probably watch Diagon Alley sell out at $400 and see if they reach 1K once people's orders ship.

Thought it might be fun to track the W shaped curve this one will take.

Ebay SOLD prices have moved from 75 shipped to 85 shipped since yesterday. 

20200901 8am EST

232 live

532 sold

Average buy it now price with offer looks to be 99.99 shipped.

Prediction: Sept 1 -8 are the expected delivery dates I have. Volume of available sets will jump from 232 to 1500

buy it now will drop to 69.99 shipped.

If that volume is absorbed quickly, this jumps to 149.99 shipped in a month for early Christmas shoppers.

If the volume stagnates, this set sits at 65 shipped for eternity.

If this set gets added to Amazon, it will increase the ceiling of the price helping everyone. (hopefully someone will)

**Edit**

of COURSE someone already has. 107 shipped, which is in line with maybe a bit below? 99 shipped on ebay.
