I watched a documentary on just how big sneaker collecting is, and what big business it is. 500-1000 really isn't that much for a pair of limited edition shoes actually.

There are people who will buy several pairs of each new model (or models they like or are popular) and then put them aside for 10-15 years so they can have a pair of brand new 'retro' sneakers down the road.

Oh and another pair to remain undisturbed for collection.
