I agree with the points in the video but come to a different conclusion.
Yes a special/limited/1st ed print run would be slurped up by the hypebeast scalper/flipper types. It would magnify that component of the market. On the flip side that would make unlimited prints much less interesting to resellers and would dampen the demand for that product.
The result is a two-component marketplace where the stonkers can drive up the price of the “special” supply while the bonkers who complain about msrp pricing will have access to a more consistently available supply of retail product.
So who in this segmented market is upset? The financially driven people and collectors who want an additional layer of challenge are happier. The kids and people that just want to rip packs are happier, what’s the problem?
