From our sources, we know that Target is saving have received more stock for both the PlayStation 5 (PS5) and Xbox Series X consoles. While Target corporate hasn’t announced dates for the upcoming drops, here’s’ everything you need to know.
In case you don’t know, we’ve successfully reported on the target declines since December. We reported on the Target Drop on January 20, December 29 and December 21. Our Discord community also predicted and reported the Target Drop on Feb. 2.
Stores are starting to receive inventory, according to a source holding a higher position at Target. During the January 20 drop, stores began to receive inventory around January 19, and Target dropped immediately the next morning.
This could mean, we will possibly see a Target drop sometime between tonight, ie February 14 (ie 3am to 8am EST) and tomorrow. If not, we can look forward two more days. Usually Target is known not keep stock. This means that once they receive inventory, they release the consoles for sale.
As I wrote in a previous article, “stores are getting very little stock and so we can’t expect much from Target at this point. From talking to multiple PS5 trackers, I can say the drops would be to follow relatively weaker than what we’ve seen in the past. So it is better not to have high expectations while still looking forward to an opportunity. “
