“How can we understand the price’s variation?”
A concept to know is the “hype”: every article has its own
“hype”, for example usually “Supreme” collaborates with other
brands like “Comme des Garçons”, “The North Face”, “Stone
Island” etc.. in this case the resell price is higher because there is
much “hype”.
“How can we buy a limited article?”
The various brands have different methods. The most famous,
Supreme, drops their pieces every Thursday at 12:00 AM. They
show a “droplist” two or three days before the drop so the
people can see which article is better to resell. There are some
apps like “SupCommunity” that show you the various droplists. In
other cases the brands tell you the time of the drop through
Instagram and other social networks.
“Where can we resell a limited article?”
The answer is simple: on internet. You have to download some
specific applications like “GOAT”, “Stockx”, “Shpock”, “BUMP”
and “Depop”. These applications allow you to sell your pieces in
all the world. Moreover you can sell even on Facebook and
Instagram through some pages and groups.
The world of streetwear is charming, it represents an evolution of the vogue. There are some expensive collections full of rare pieces that cost thousands and thousands of dollars.
