You obviously don't know how retail stores operate.
You see, store need to make profit in order to remain open, so by selling products above their cost, they make profit.
Cost of an item has other factors (currency exchange + shipping + customs/duties + original cost of the item to the store).
I do not work there, but anyone who knows how a business is run would know that.

Nomad has a Supreme account which means Nomad doesn't get Supreme at retail prices, but at cost prices.
25%-50% markups are fine because of currency exchange, shipping and all that, but 200% is fucking pushing it.

There seems to be a whole lot of people throwing accusations in this thread without a real understanding of how retail works.
If you think Nomad is getting their Supreme gear at some great wholesale price, you're wrong. The dollar sucks right now, face it. Take the Heather tee for instance - $68 US is almost $90 CDN right now. Add in shipping and duties and you can see where the $130 price comes from.
Same with Visvim, CDG, and everything else. All of the conversion, shipping, and duties all add to the final cost.
For whoever quoted the CDG example, do you think there might be a reason Nomad, Roden Gray, TNTBlu all sell the stuff for roughly the same price?
Part of the image of many of these premium brands is tied to the price. They can mandate that stores not sell item X for any less than a set price. If they do, bye bye account.

So...
Aside from all thats happening in the past few pages, which seem interesting but not in the mood in reading it all, just wondering if there are still Lance Mountains floating around? If so, how much? Or am I better off buying from Japan? haha
