Big W in Australia had this, mostly gone but see it occasionally...

I haven't seen one since Christmas.

I went on target.com and some are actually at store, but limited stock, so check around guys.

Call a head of time if your local Target shows available online.

Found out the hard way when I went to one about 40 mins away cause it said online it was available.

When I asked the guy working electronics he said that their is a major disconnect from the store inventory and what Target.com says. To the point he wouldn't trust what the web site says.

FYI the target I went to still say's they have in available in the store and he said they haven't had him in a long time.

I concur with this statement by Pirg.
Yesterday, I went to a Target and gave Granite Crusher's DPCI to the customer service desk clerk. She input it into the computer and printed out a receipt paper for me that showed 4 different local Targets having a stock of one-to-three Granite Crushers. Both the clerk and the paper print-out encouraged me to actually call the individual stores to confirm inventory. I'm glad I did, because all four stores had no Granite Crushers, despite what the inventory database said.

My wife used to work in retail long ago, and she said she wasn't particularly surprised by this. There are lots of reasons why an inventory database would show stock when there isn't any actual stock. These include: theft, mishandled returns, and employees hoarding items for themselves, among other things.

Anyway .... does anyone know of an actual way to purchase Granite Crusher at retail prices now? Or it is fair to say that the supply is totally dried up and the only option is Ebay?
