TIME TO HUNT

54043501

207 29 0180

​

Do these numbers mean anything to you? Well if you've spent the last month searching for the NES Classic, these numbers are bout to mean EVERYTHING to you. I'm going to tell you why, but first let me say a few things.

​

I will never ever NEVER EVER NEVER knock another man's hustle. If you take the information I am about to share and then turn around and "make that money" as it were, that's on you. If it's out there to get, go get it playa. I have always been one that supports the idea to get out there and #HUSTLEHARD 

​

But with that said, I do have to say that I personally do not appreciate the amount of shade that has been tossed my way this past month. So its ASSUMED that I am hoarding these things and making all kinds of money "scalping" these in the secondary market, all while selfishly withholding information on how I get them. And to that I have to say you are WRONG!!!! I have never withheld the information that I come across. Every single time someone has asked me about how to find one of these things, I have sent them a private message explaining in detail how I do my hunts. I have always given numbers. I have even gone out of my personal way to make sure others got what they were looking for before I even got what I wanted. And even when I did start finding these I only asked for RETAIL + A FULL TANK OF GAS!!!! You know, because it's so scummy to expect a little compensation for my time and efforts getting something for someone else. The wear and tear on my vehicle and time spent hunting, driving, and waiting in lines mean NOTHING RIGHT? Let's not forget I was one of those people who got their feelings hurt on day 1 when I tried to go out and get myself a NES Classic at retail. I went to 4 different stores locally trying to get one, and at each one I was met with disappointment. Then the following week I foolishly put myself on a call list for another store that I knew was getting 12 systems, where I was #7, and do you think I got one? NOPE. I even let Nintendo have a piece of my mind on social media about their shameful practices and how short baking these was very much counterproductive. Maybe not from a business standpoint, because they are making their money with these selling out, but more from a moral standpoint, as in this latest fiasco does nothing to garner good will for the big N this holiday season, especially with them gearing up to release NEW hardware early next year. If we can't find the NES Classic, will it be the same song and dance with the Nintendo Switch? Well it was at this point that I decided to take matters into my own hands.

​

Coming out of retirement and pulling out my old utility belt from the amiibo days (remember that debacle....also on Nintendo hmmm), I opened up all my old inventory tracking accounts on various sites. And for the last couple of weeks I have found that one in particular works head and shoulders above the rest. And that one is

LET ME REPEAT THAT IS

Did you get that? OK GOOD. Now let's go.

​

Well on this website, what you do is you choose either Walmart or Target, you input the proper item code (those numbers I told you about earlier), put in your zip code, and then watch the magic happen. The first number 54043501 is the SKU number that Walmart uses. The second number 207 29 0180 is the DPCI that Target uses. I will go ahead and tell you that even though I have given you both stores unique codes, you only need to use the one for Target. The reason I say this is because most Walmart stores are 24 hours, and they also do not restrict their employees from making purchases on their shift.  At Target the employees cannot make purchases because the registers are down due to stock being processed while the store is not in operating hours. They also cannot "hold" a system.

​

Let me tell you that once you put the info in, IT IS ACCURATE. So whatever amount of units the website says are in the store, that's how many are in there. This is really helpful info because from there you can then look at the exact location of the store and decide which one you want to drive to. Its not worth gambling trying to hit a store with 1 or 2 systems. 3 or more is usually a safe bet. So plan accordingly.

​

But let me tell you right now, do not sleep on this information. I have given you the tool. Now its up to you to use it properly. When you do the search and it shows you where the system is, GET UP AND GO GET IT!!!! I don't care if its 4am, which coincidentally is when you should be checking the inventory, that's when you put on some clothes, gas your car, grab a book and a snack, and claim your prize. Don't call the store asking about it. Don't sit on your butt and think that you can just casually walk in the store at open and there will still be systems there. Because I guarantee they wont be there. If you call yourself REALLY wanting one of these, then you're going to have to put out some effort to get it. Might have to drive 50 miles one way. Might even have to wait outside for an hour or two. But you will get your NES Classic, and you will only have paid retail for it. Which beats paying triple for it on the secondary market right?

​

Heed the warning though. This tool I have given you is very much public, so the same way YOU can use it, the resellers also use it. And they have the resources, the time, and the drive to get up and beat you to the punch EVERY SINGLE TIME if you allow it. Trust me....I know. You only have to get up and do this once, if you really only want to get this for yourself. These guys and gals do this every single night, and for the past month have been making money hand over fist considering that the system has a $65 buy in, yet it's currently trending at $180-$250. So that's a solid profit no matter how you look at it. Like I said, don't knock the hustle. Because while you piss, moan, and gripe....these folks are getting paid. See this article's picture for proof.

​

So there it is folks. I have told you EXACTLY how to get yourself the NES Classic this holiday. I've pretty much done everything involved in the hunt for you outside of loading the gun and shooting the animal for you. Now are you going to do what it takes to get yourself one, or will you do like a good number of people have, prompting this very post, and sit around and call the ambitious people ugly names and claim they are ruining your Christmas.

​

You're Welcome....

​

Now should I mention I also have all the store codes for Hatchimals too?
