Visvim x UNDFTD reseller explosion

[rakis]

I've been keen on getting these kicks but realised I am not being catered for at all (I'm a US13/UK12).

I did realise that there are apparently sellers with multiples of these kicks and it made me wonder: how the hell did someone manage to stock up on 12 pais of these kicks in various sizes (US9-11 especially) without the store actually objecting to the bulk purchase?

Really sad that genuine enthusiasts are getting screwed as most resellers are asking at least US$400 (excl. postage which is an average of US$30-40).

I am aware that there are loads of resellers and its not something peculiar but I'm just wondering what the rest of you think or know about the situation.

BTW How much were these shoes actually sold for originally in the UNDFTD store? I know that Hideout (London, UK) were retailing these for 165quid.

I just think that there is something not quite right with this....the same has happened in the Drone music scene. Bands like SUNN 0))), ISIS, Pelican release an vinyl album/tour 12" and these get snapped up and appear at 4 times the selling price in a number of mere days...

rakis my man, just go to ebay and look up "nike dunk sb raygun" for example

as you see, some sellers seem to sell 4 or more pairs at a time for like $200+. the MSRP is only $65. hype just kills the whole shoe game.

some stores don't object to bulk purchases but most of limit it to one per person. resellers probably go to 10 different places and get a pair from each location. either that or they're fake.

anybody who got 12 pairs cant be a regular sleepover reseller...they gotta have some kind of connection, most places limit purchases to one or 2 per person./

real hustlers live in their mom's basements.
