    There's lots of markets like that I don't understand.

    Amiibos, McD's Shamrock Shakes, Bort license plates. I understand that there's companies/products that exists entirely based on limited supply/hype (Supreme), but for a lot of companies I just really don't understand limiting the supply when the demand is obviously there.

    How long has it been since Kanye said everyone who wanted a Yeezy would be able to get one? Yet you're still stuck paying $500+ at resale if RNGjesus wasn't on your side.

    With adidas yeezys it’s a production issue due to boost material and manufacturing capabilities. Otherwise everyone would have a Calabassas at the very least . Nike yeezys were an executive decision and part of their falling out.

    I refuse to believe that there's a limitation on Boost at this point. Adidias is dropping 10 new models a week with Boost in them.

    Idk man I’m just going off what Wex says. They’ve increased supply with basically every yeezy 350 release, hence V2’s being so much cheaper than V1s. Apparently Beluga 2 gonna be biggest release to date so they are getting there.

    Shiiit

    I missed that the local stores already had their in store raffles for the Beluga 2.0s.

    Still, if this release is as wide spread as rumored, should be a possible cop. Finish Line doing it app only (so in theory no bots) will help too.

    LOL clearly should have checked the tracking before I posted. "A late UPS trailer arrival has caused a delay. We're adjusting plans to deliver your package as quickly as possible. / Your delivery has been rescheduled for the next business day."

    Like a month ago I had UPS lose a package (was a hat), got a replacement from Nike, and a few days later UPS found it sitting in New Jersey and I got a sweet 2 for 1 deal.

    Totally going twins with my dad and knocking a Christmas gift off the list.

    interesting. i'd been running into paypal issues on grailed my last two purchases and had to use credit cards. Did they change it for buyers as well?

    BTW while I was looking at the Finish Line app in prep for Beluga 2s, apparently they're restocking 97 OG Silver Bullets on Saturday.

    My friend took a seasonal job at Finish Line and agreed to work 12 hours every day for like 8 days after Thanksgiving just to get the opportunity to buy a pair of Belugas.

    I get they look cool but some things are just meant to be left to chance.

    I think he plans to work enough shifts to pay back the cost of the shoes, at least.

    Took the L on the Beluga raffle. Better than my other friend who left his phone charging for 30 seconds to take a piss and missed the phone call. RIP
