Honestly, Youtubers are a big part of the problem. Add to the mix that we have a bunch of impulse, can't think for themselves, pansy "sneaker heads" now a days...the only result is a higher MSRP.
Remember Jordan XVII hit us with a 200 MSRP....we let them sit till they were on clearance for $99 and part of the EA. I, myself, bought 30 total packs in different CW at $50.
DELAYED GRATIFICATION. It's what I teach my kids, friends and in my relationship. People just dont have patience anymore.
You can't make believe that you like EVERY single release, every single week, every single month. It's impossible.
