I don't like it, I dont like the fact that if I happen to like a shoe that comes with a huge hype and resell value I will have to pay 4x what the MSRP of it actually is...all because resellers are fighting each other off and doing guiness records type camp outs, I mean dudes at this point will camp out 3 weeks in advance and I wouldnt be surprise....now thats my personal opinion, because I'm on the other side of the peephole, I'm not a reseller, I'm not even a collector, I buy what I like with intent to wear.
With that said, I think resellers are complete pathetic %$%@%#!!, not all but those that want to profit 2000% on the purchase, those that go in and walk out with 10 pairs, but from a complete unbiased perspective you can't say they are wrong, they are doing it to make money, even though when you break down the math, they could make about the same working at Wendy's but in general they are no different than me hogging up 2-3 jobs when I can live perfectly fine with 1 (im trying to change that),making it harder for new grads to get position just because in at an advantage due to my connects...just seems extremely pathetic to see grown #** men and women stampede each other after sleeping on the streets for a ridiculous amount of days..but you are right, they taking care of their own, they make the sacrifice and the market is there so that is easy for them to flip, no matter how much it pisses us off.
