I don't know if Target should not sell cards because of this one incident, but I'm thinking that they just don't want to be bothered, as I've heard that people have been lining up at 3 in the morning to get cards, and stores have had to try to figure out strategically when the best time it would be to release new cards to keep the feeding frenzies manageable.
It reminds me of an antique dealer I once spoke with when I went to his store looking for old records. He said, he stopped selling them, because collectors looking for them would clog up the store, hovering over what he had, nitpicking and often not buying anything. He wanted them out of his hair.
