Target really should have done a better job handling online orders. First, they should have set limits on the amount of the same item you could order and on the total amount of items you could order. For ex, 2 of the same sweater, 10 total items max. They needed a way to not send all their product to resellers. Part of the problem too is that people just return items to the store so they don't even have the inventory to fill open orders with returns.

I don't know about the limit of the same item but they certainly did have limit on the total number of the items for online purchases. They would not let me add more items to my shopping cart from something like 21st or 22nd item.
I got the email with the delayed/cancelled alert with a 10 day follow-up email notice on 10/3 as well. 3 of the items shipped a few days after the email (2 ruanas and a robe). I received a new email today asking me to approve a delay on my 2 throws for 11/10. I placed the order at 7:30am launch day (right before the crash) and my order is listed as 9/14. I wonder if my order would've been fulfilled if it was in queue correctly. Still hoping I receive them, they were my #1 must have.
OK I broke down and wore my first MFT item - B&W Zig Zag Tee. It was so so comfy... highly recommend! Also snagged a shirt the other day that I thought was ugh, but looked fine on. 100% polyester - I prefer silk, but for $10.06 clearance - whose to argue? Even came with an extra button (3 button cuff)!
Now I match my bedspread LOL!

I like that shirt!
Originally I was debating the jacket version of that pattern over the sweater coat!
Thank you! I agree about the B&W shirt. You should see it in person... if it's an "off" pattern - should be a "good" off (looks intentionally misaligned) or find one that lines up pretty well...KWIM?
update:
early last week, i got an email telling me my throw was shipped with a tracking #. it's the only item i ordered online. the tracking # only showed the shipping label was created and that's it. i've been checking the tracking # for almost a week. and it finally showed some progress today that i am receiving it tomorrow. so from the launch day 7am till tomorrow 7pm.
i am very disappointed with the way target handled this collab. i hope i'll enjoy my throw after all these aggravations.

Shopdrop came through for me AGAIN!!
This time she sent me a msg to tell me that the store up north had the Long Blue Cardi in a Large. I took the trip up there and got the sweater!
I had won a Medium on ebay (which hasn't arrived yet), for the original retail price, but the Large fits me really good. I'll probably let the Medium go when I finally receive it
Not only did they have the sweater, but I stopped at the dressing room and asked if they had any Missoni back there and she pulled a Black Runa out from the back!! I did a little bit of shopping and doubled back past the dressing room again and this time, she pulled a velor hoodie from the rack -- and it was my size!!
I also passed by the accessories dept to see what they had - on Sunday, they had a bin on top of the counter full of odds-n-ends -- but today it was gone. As I passed back the other way, I saw a basket behind the counter full of Missoni, including the Long Blue Striped Scarf and the Long Purple Scarf. As I was walking out of the dept. I noticed an end cap with a ton of Missoni, including a TON of the long brown scarf (which I already have). They must have gotten a shipment or found a box in the back because they must have had 10-15 of them!
I also picked up the girl's tunic hoodie for my granddaughter - it's a little big, but I love the colors in that one (I wish they made that one in the women's sizes!) and it looks really cute, plus it matches Gramma's Blue Hoodie!! (she wanted to wear it out of the store!)
I also found a few things today I didn't even know existed -- a black & white round bathroom rug, a serving platter and a black & white canister. I found two glass serving bowls and was going to get them to use as a trade, but they were so heavy, they would have cost a fortune to ship so I decided against them and put them back. I also found a journal and a few pair of sox.
Overall, I had a very successful day -- now if I could only find that long brown cardigan, my Missoni Madness will finally be over!!
Once again, thank you shop!! I can't tell you how grateful I am for your kindness!!

WOWZA iluvmybags! You made out like a bandit! What does that blue scarf look like? I don't believe I've seen it. I also found the long purple scarf too! I wanted the Infinity version of it...but I will settle for this.
And the velour hoodie...I am so jelly!Congrats!
I've been sick the last two days so I haven't been able to make it to Target. I think the last time I went was Saturday! I'm feeling better though so hopefully I can go tomorrow at lunch.
I also really want a brown open cardigan and the blue striped cardigan now. After looking at pictures of them for a month now I have really grown to like them!

Congrats!
If this is the blue scarf you're talking about, I took a cell phone pic of it when I got it last week. Doesn't really show the whole thing, but I was just taking a quick photo to send to my mom. Hope this helps! (P.S. sorry the pic is so huge, I tried resizing it AND rotating it in photobucket and it won't do anything, lol!)

OMG LOVE THAT! I want that and the Brown Infinity Scarf and I'm done (I think
).
I don't live in a shady neighborhood, but seriously, the Missoni dishonesty is getting a bit out of control. 
So, I was excited because I found the colore file folders (yes, I got excited because I have an open file system that I use for mailing supplies...different sized envelopes, stamps, etc), and I thought instead of using boring file folders, the Missoni ones would jazz the area up. 
Um. The file folders come in a pk of 6. There were 5 in there!
Jesus, I hope the Target people don't think I'm the one who snagged that 1 file folder out of the package when I return it tomorrow! First the luggage contents turn up missing, and now someone just decides to nab a file folder out of the package.
