MISSONI 4 TARGET Sold Out. Not In N.NV. just went 2 Target Carson City NV they have lot of merch have more in there West Coast Wearhouse. Not impressed with quality Sizing very large I was able 2 fit in the kids clothes, material flimsy VERY POOR quality knit not worth the Target Retail Price. Only things I liked & bought, the Brown Floppy Hat & Candles. My advise TRY BEFORE YOU BUY. If You need to buy online / ebay buy it 2 sizes smaller and don't forget kids merch it will fit a size 0-2 EVERYTHING is made in CHINA, not in Italy like the orig line.

Missoni has a cult following.

Did you really think the line was going to be manufactured in Italy?

I think it's crappy that so many people swooped in to buy up everything just to sell it on Ebay. Seems like poor sportsmanship.

And it's going to be profitable because people will buy it on Ebay. Just once, I wish everyone would say, "Let them sit on the merchandise until they are forced to sell it for peanuts". But nooooo. All those disappointed folks who didn't make it to Tarjay in time to buy armloads of the junk at inflated prices will pay further-inflated prices just to be able to say, "Look! I'm wearing Missoni."

The ability to price-gouge trumps sportsmanship every time. It's the American way, doncha' know?

I heard that they were going to keep putting the merchandise out until Mid-Oct, so even though it may be sold out now, they'll be getting more shipments in.

Missoni has their own mill and factories. all they had to do is use a lower grade of yarn and make it at their own mill/factory. INSTEAD they licenced their name to Target and now I have learned they had nothing to do with the design of merch. All they did was lic their name.

Other companies in the past for both Target an H&M will use their own factory's and just use a lower grade of materials.

Early bird gets the worm and make the money. But, people are going to find out the merch is very low grade and not worth the mark ups and also Target is getting more merch in and has asked the Factory in china to make more.
