EconTalk: Selling Sneakers and Swooshes, by Amy Willis
Are you a sneakerhead? Have you organized a portfolio of your collection? (Did you even know you could???) This week, EconTalk host Russ Roberts sat down with the foremost expert on the secondary sneaker market, Josh Luber. They talked about the process of data collection, "deadstock" and the composition of this multi-million dollar secondary market.
As always, we'd like to hear what you took away from this conversation. So please share your thoughts with us in the comments, and let's continue.
1. Luber talks about his process of transitioning to full-time work on Campless, and his plans to launch StockX. What does he mean by a "stock market of things?" How does this comport with the traditional idea of stock markets? Can you think of other "things" that might benefit from a platform like StockX?
