But if there truly are clowns out there that think so highly of this "trendy" fashion company, "Supreme", that they will shell out $20 bucks for a $1 newspaper, and some of us can exploit their idiotcy, what's wrong with that?

This appears to me to be a publicity stunt by Supreme (whatever that is).

The person who wrote the article is likely a paid shill to hype the product.

Who is the market for this anyway? How MANY people ARE willing to spend $20 for a $1 product?

If you believe you can make some money off this I have no problem with that but I believe this is little more than PR hype without much of a market.

Good luck making a few bucks if you can. Just don't over invest because I suspect this will be short lived and with a limited market you may be left holding the bag.

I could be wrong about everything since I don't know the market for this product. Maybe it's huge. I have no idea.

You very well may be spot on on all of that. However, my total investment stands at $2. A third paper was given to me by a NY Post delivery truck driver who confirmed that people were buying up the papers like mad, at least there in Queens NY. Later saw lots still in Manhattan, but one newsstand guy said several people bought a bunch of papers. Truck driver said he was advised to be careful when dropping off his bundles at newsstands. To make sure they were secure. In any case, I'm sure there will be some interesting followups to this story, in terms of BS vs reality. :)
