Facts, inflation has driven the price up substantially and the new generation will literally buy anything now too.While the hype was nowhere where it is now, most OG 1s did sellout, probably because there were far fewer releases. I do think that a lot of that had to do with OG 1s selling at $130-$140 retail back then so there was definitely resell money to be made on most releases. I remember even OG+ cws like Barons and those hideous Denim Family First pairs sold out on release day in 2014.
Also diluting 1s has been going on for years-remember Phats? Alphas? V1s?
