Owner of resell company “West Coast Streetwear” mom is a VP at Nike - UPDATE - mom forced to step down

[vegetaray123]

The whole thing is just totally absurd to me now...Nike wrote the book on limited release sneakers to drive up hype, I get it...But when did the hype chasers decide that owning the sneakers wasn’t good enough, now they needed to flaunt how much they paid on the aftermarket? The sneaker world has mutated into this joyless thing that’s sole focus is on the dollar value...Love for sneakers is, and always was, a very niche thing anyway...Now with this added focus it’s just flat out weird ...

The Rolex comparison mentioned earlier is probably as close as you can get to putting this whole thing in relation to other consumer products...But with time pieces at least you can kind of own everything up to having a quality made product that could be something to hand off to future generations...A heirloom as it were...

Does sneakers from massive sportswear companies in particular, offer that same level of product? Hell no they don’t! Clumps of rubber and glue pieced together in a sweat shop halfway around the world? Produced with the sole intention to be worn out, and subsequently replaced?...I just don't get it anymore...

Yeah, there’s this dude limitedissue on IG. A couple of months ago he was going into Walmarts in NJ or something and he was buying pools for like $50-$100? And then flipping them on eBay for $400-$500 I believe. Surprised people bought them. He even had page monitors when those pools restocked. It’s crazy and employees recognized him and wanted to prohibit him from buying pools or something. It’s now more than that, Pokémon cards, basketball and baseball cards, etc.

Weird. Alot of gucci products sold out online and the outlets have 40 people outside. When times are down people shop

I went to this mall here outside Philly a few weekends ago (king of Prussia) and they have like a nice high end section. 1pm on a Sunday there was probably 100 people camping outside lv to go in, and maybe 20-30 in line at gucci. It was so bizarre to me.

But what caused the sudden interest in pools? Where these pools only available in NJ at that particular wal mart? There has to be more to it than that.

I think it was because of the lockdowns, and people wanting those pools knowing they mainly stuck at home all summer.. I know excercise equipment was going for a premium for a bit as well.

Increase in people working remotely and children in remote schooling means parents need a way to keep kids busy. I admit, i sold a huge $400 costco pool for $1000 last August. Was a pain to ship it via UPS freight.

Idk. But the guy was flourishing and he got others onto the game. He posted screenshots of other people sending dms of their eBay sales . His page is public and he he posts info just about anything that has good “value” or resale.

 

[Deleted member 42060]

People still beasting over rerererererere retros at double normal retail price will never make sense . Double/triple up on a shoe what will drop in 4-5 years again anyway lol

that's exactly it. i went to wal-mart to get one for my baby girl last april. ended up having to drive over 20 miles to another store to barely get the last one. all for a little inflatable pool that cost $9.
