The Yeezy is a resellers dream. The original Yeezy 750 Boost fetches more than five times the retail price, and even the recent Yeezy Boost 350 joints represent a quick buck for those who cop for cash instead for wearing. A recent interview with Young Thug even reveals that Kanye West had to resort to paying mark-up prices on eBay to get a pair of the Yeezy Boosts because the brand itself was probably drained completely dry of any stock. You’d think Kanye would have a stash of deadstock pairs readily available, or that the brand would set some aside for future opportunities, but apparently eBay and the baller prices is the only destination to cop Yeezy Boosts after the release. We hope he got free shipping.

“Kanye is like my brother, but he’s a real fan. He bought me some Yeezys and went on eBay to get them for me. That’s motivation.” – Young Thug
