What Target return pallets close for (2026)
Last reviewed
By the BStalker team. Figures measured .
Measured October 22, 2026, the median final bid was $1,200 across 4,706 closed lots on B-Stock's Target storefront, from April 24 to October 21, 2026. All 4,706 lots were priced. The median bid cost per unit was $3.63 across the 4,703 lots with a unit count, calculated by dividing each lot's final bid by its published unit count.
This is BStalker's canonical closed population with a bid recorded, counting each lot once. It describes closed storefront lots, without a separate single-pallet or condition filter. "Final bid" means the last observed bid before the lot left the feed, possibly a no-bid asking price, never a confirmed sale price. Every figure is bid-only, with buyer premium and freight still to add.
The category breakdown
These category medians cover the same Target storefront population and April 24 to October 21, 2026 window, measured October 22, 2026. Lot counts are the category populations; per-unit medians use lots with a unit count. The grid covers the 4,570 lots in categories with at least 25 closings; the remaining 136 lots sat in smaller or unassigned categories. All 4,706 lots were priced, and 4,703 had a unit count.

Final bid is the last observed bid, possibly a no-bid ask, never a confirmed sale price. Figures are bid-only, before buyer premium and freight. Measured October 22, 2026 over closed Target storefront lots from April 24 to October 21, 2026. Category-specific unit-count denominators are unavailable in this snapshot; the overall per-unit median covers 4,703 lots.
Read the lot and per-unit figures together
A category's median lot bid and median bid per unit answer different questions. The first describes the lot total; the second describes the bid divided by the published unit count on each lot. Dividing the two medians does not recover a typical unit count. Neither figure tells you the condition or contents of a specific pallet.
This snapshot is limited to the official Target storefront. It does not price every B-Stock seller or every source of Target returns. The statistics page provides broader archive context, while the closings reports offer dated reads of the wider market with their own populations.
Buyer premium and freight come on top
B-Stock adds a 10% buyer premium per its own Supply FAQ, as stated in the retailer buying guides. Freight is buyer-arranged, so get a quote for the shipping origin and your destination before setting a bid limit. Neither cost is included in the medians above. The Target return pallet buying guide explains the storefront terms and buying process.
For a specific lot, add the bid, buyer premium and freight, then divide by the published unit count. Keep that calculation separate from the bid-only per-unit figures in this study. A missing freight quote leaves part of the cost unresolved.
How to check a specific lot
- Confirm that the seller is the official Target storefront, then read the manifest, condition description, published unit count and shipping origin. The Target return pallet buying walkthrough covers those checks.
- Use the B-Stock platform page to explore current B-Stock supply, then verify the storefront and current terms on the original listing. B-Stock includes sellers beyond Target.
- Check the current bid and unit count, add the storefront premium, and obtain your own freight quote. Compare lots with their contents and condition in view, rather than treating an archive median as a bid target.

FAQ
What do Target return pallets close for?
Measured October 22, 2026, BStalker recorded a $1,200 median final bid across 4,706 priced closed lots on B-Stock's official Target storefront from April 24 to October 21, 2026. This is a storefront-lot population without a separate single-pallet filter. Final bid is the last observed bid, possibly a no-bid ask, never a confirmed sale price, and excludes buyer premium and freight.
What is the median bid cost per unit?
The median was $3.63 across 4,703 closed Target storefront lots with a unit count from April 24 to October 21, 2026, measured October 22, 2026. Each lot's figure is its last observed bid divided by its published unit count, before buyer premium and freight. It is not a confirmed sale price.
Does the final bid include shipping or buyer premium?
No. B-Stock adds a 10% buyer premium per its own Supply FAQ, as stated in the retailer buying guides, and freight is buyer-arranged. Add both to a specific lot's bid before dividing by its published unit count.
