Web site crashes at Target.com marred opening day of the discount retailer's sales of Missoni merchandise. Customers who tried to buy items from the upscale Italian designer are finding their orders delayed or canceled. Target is working to straighten things out, but complaints in cyberspace suggest there's been long-term damage.

The limited edition collection sold out at most Target stores in minutes Tuesday. The mad rush for the Italian designer's special line also crashed Target's website. But the Minneapolis-based retailer says more merchandise is on the way.
