twojskicks So... existing consigners can't raise the price and are forced to sell them at previous pricing? Though everyone else can post new listings a at higher prices... So, the resellers are using his death as an excuse to buy out the market at the old prices, despite demand increases.

StockX and GOAT disgust me. Profit over human decency.

twojskicks This is great and all but lets not pretend it wont change. Just like everything else in the world. Things get valuable when people die. Paintings, literature, and ofcourse shoes. People saying they shouldnt be making money are the samr people buying shit from other dead people.

twojskicks You doing this is all I need to know about what kind of person you are . Thanks

twojskicks Good for twojskicks. I'm glad somebody has some integrity in this world. Appreciate it homie god bless we love you!
