Yo, you guys!
What is going on?
It's Blazendary here.
Today in this video, I'm going to be teaching you the best ways
to afford Supreme, Bape, Off-White, Vlone, all those really expensive brands
that you think you'd never be able to cop.
And even if you are like a successful reseller,
and you still are having trouble getting items like you know,
like $1,200 Bape jacket.
I'm not here to flex.
I'm here to teach you how I came up through the reselling...
And all these other cool methods that I'm about to show you
to get, you know, the stuff that I have.
As you guys can see, and if you did watch my room tour,
that was a pretty fire ass vid by the way.
So I'd go check that out if I was you.
As you can see, I've got a lot of Supreme, a lot of Bape,
a lot of cool stuff on display, but I didn't all just get it for free,
and I didn't all just get it through my parents.
In fact, none of this is through my parents.
This is through like four years of hard work,
and I understand that I'm the biggest,
or one of the biggest hypebeast on YouTube.
Actually, I consider myself to be the biggest.
Like damn, I'm wearing Supreme and Bape right now,
and I got them Blazendary shorts on.
But aside from all that, I think there's four easy steps that you can do
to get money through reselling, through Supreme, Bape,
and then eventually work your way up by using certain apps to find Supreme,
Bape, and stuff like that for cheap.
So I'm going to teach that all to you right now.
I did want to mention that I am giving away free Air Jordan 1 Royal
in any size to anybody that wants it.
All you have to do is subscribe by clicking the link down below
in the description to enter.
And if you're already subscribed, well damn, you already entered.
It's that simple.
So just make sure that if you aren't subscribed, you click down below,
link in the description, and then if you even are subscribe,
you can still click the link and get some bonus entries
by following me on Instagram,
adding my Snapchat,
which is on the bottom left hand corner of the screen.
These are free, and the winner will pick whatever size they want.
Alright, so let's flashback to about four years ago.
I used to sell like really, like not beat up,
but really like common Jordans.
Back then, Jordans were like a thing that everybody,
like you know, would always want to buy.
Adidas wasn't in the game yet.
Nobody was in the game.
Like I had a very tough come up.
I said I had a tough come up because these Air Jordan 5's right here,
these used to be the kind of things we'd sell.
The only issue is they were only going for like $150 to $200,
and that wasn't really much to buy yourself, you know, like back
then a Nike Air Yeezy 2 Platinum.
Now, you've got stuff like Kanye Yeezys,
that if you manage to get a pair for retail,
you could be making a $700 - $800 profit.
I started selling Jordans on this Instagram account
I created called Blazendary Kicks.
Fun fact, I still use that account today to even resell stuff like my Yeezys,
which are up there, and I use it to promote my merchandise,
which the shorts I am wearing are from my brand.
So this is the account right here, and that amount of time,
I've amassed over 26,000 followers,
and that's just from my store.
Like I even made a post today.
Like I'm like, Look guys, this isn't my main account.
My main account is @giancarlopurch.
So what I would try to do is that it always try to keep your business
and your personal life separate.
So if you have a personal Instagram,
I doubt, you know, girls at your school
want to see posting pictures of Yeezys like seven times to try and sell them.
I would go ahead and make a separate Instagram account,
and that to me is the first step of effective reselling
to eventually work your way up to Supreme and Bape.
Once you have your Instagram account,
it's very important to make sure that people can find your posts.
Because I understand that having zero followers
is very difficult to come up from.
So what I did was I used to use hashtags like #Supremeforsale,
and I would use hashtags like #shoesforsale,
and those would help spark interest
in other people looking for sneakers to buy.
Now, I do understand that this video is to get stuff like Supreme and Bape.
But you do have to work yourself up,
and if you're lucky enough, like say, you have a job and stuff like that,
then I'm about to get to that part in a second.
So let's say now you finally have your income rolling in.
Maybe get a hundred bucks a week here and there through a job,
through reselling on Instagram.
Then you're starting to be like,
well, now, how do I get like a Supreme box logo?
This one for example, I paid $525 for,
and to me that's a steal,
and some you guys be like,
Oh goddamn, why you spending that much on a damn t-shirt?
And why are you spending $1,200 for a jacket?
The thing is it's like...
It's like the... It's the culture you know.
Like I don't mind paying that much for stuff like this
because it's what I like to collect.
It's what I like to buy,
and it's what I like to show off to you guys.
So I have no problem spending that much on a Supreme t-shirt or a Bape jacket.
But some of you, it may matter,
and you want to know how to find a steal.
This t-shirt right here usually goes with $800 to $1,000.
I managed to get for $525.
Well, how do you do that?
Another thing that I wanted to mention is you can actually use Supreme's
website to get these kind of tees for yourself.
Although the chances may be very slim,
if you do manage to get a $48 t-shirt,
you could turn that into $480,
depending on the T-shirt though.
So what I'm going to do is I'm going to go on my laptop,
and I know Supreme,
they're only having one more drop I believe.
So this may not be relevant for the summer,
if you are trying to cop some Supreme for retail.
The thing you would have to do is you have to go on Supreme's website
at probably 10:59 in the morning,
every Thursday, when Supreme's in season.
To do that just make sure you follow their Instagram, @supremenewyork,
to make sure you know that the stuff is coming out that week.
So for example, let's say I buy this right here.
The Supreme Champion half zip pullover for $148,
that is a lot of money.
I understand that.
But you can make that $148 into, well, let's see.
So if we go on eBay, let's say you do get that jacket,
and I don't really recommend eBay
because there are a lot of scammers on eBay,
but let's just do Supreme Champion half zip pullover.
So right here, if you did manage to get it, you can turn that $148 into $235.
$250.
$230.
You guys get the idea.
You can make a nice little profit selling stuff like that.
Now, how to get the box logo.
Well, that's going to be a different story, because most likely,
other people are going to beat you to it since there will be such a large
amount of people trying for that box logo.
You can do the same thing on Bape's website.
You can go on www.us.bape.com, whatever it is,
and when they do drops at 11 a.m., they usually do them every day.
Not a lot of stuff does sellout, but some of the collab stuff does.
So you can score $138 Bape tee, and turn that into $300.
It's the same principle just for different brands.
Same goes for Vlone, same goes for Off-White,
it all kind of just works together by getting the item first.
Let's say you like an item that came out you know ten years ago.
This came out 10 years ago.
Actually, it came out like 12 years ago.
The way you want to do that is you want to look on websites
that resell Supreme and Bape.
But you want to make sure you're getting them for a good price.
My number one app that I do recommend is called the Grailed,
and they also have a website which I will show you.
I do have a Grailed account, and I do, you know resell on Grailed just a little bit,
but I mainly buy on Grailed.
So let's say for example we want Supreme box logo.
There's gonna be a lot of stuff that says box logo,
but you know, like if we sort it...
So let's say we started a dollar on Supreme box logo.
I don't think you want stickers.
So we're going to have to make sure we look in the right thing.
So we're going to go to, let's say, tops, and we're just
going to do all tops for Supreme.
So as you guys can see, you got some like Haynes t-shirts
and stuff like that,
but we do want to get in a little more expensive stuff,
because you know, now you do have the budget.
So let's go to high price.
So as you guys can see, Supreme stuff can sell up to $5000, $3,800.
But we're going to scroll down a little bit.
We're going to find you, let's-- Hypothetically, a box logo
you can get for relatively cheap.
So we're going to instead sort this by popular.
Another main thing you want to do is you do want to look for stuff that says
like two hours ago rather than six months,
because I don't think the person is still selling that item for six months ago.
So let's find a good one right here so...
Alright, so right here's a good one.
So I'm going to show you guys a couple little things to look for when you
are looking for an item like this.
Here's a Light blue on Navy Supreme box logo t-shirt.
He's asking $445.
What you can do is you can make an offer.
So let's say, you want to offer them,
like this is kind of a low ball, but $325.
You can click offer and do that.
However, I would be aware,
because this user does have zero feedback.
So he's only got one item for sale, and zero feedback.
That could be an issue because he might be a scammer.
So let's try and find somebody that has like a nice reputation.
So this guy right here, seems like he knows what's going on.
He's got six bought and sold six Grails, and he's got five out of five feedback,
which does mean he has sold an item before.
Man, I'm gonna take this jacket off.
It's too hot.
Too hot.
So this guy selling a 2007 Friends and Family red box logo.
You can get this for a little cheaper than $440,
but he only has a purchase option,
but this is just an example to show you that you can find stuff like this,
for you know, like a little round like $350 - $400.
So Grailed to me is like the number one place that I do look for stuff
like Supreme, Bape, and stuff like that because you can get
really nice pre-owned items for cheap.
As well as you can even get new items.
And while you guys know that I do YouTube,
I also do make money myself through merchandise,
and I do make YouTube money,
as well as brand deals and other stuff like that.
So this may be a little easier for me because I can take my money from that,
and rather than putting it towards the camera equipment,
I can put it towards like a Supreme box logo to show off to you guys.
As well as having it for myself.
Lastly, to incorporate the reselling deal,
I did actually resell these on my Blazendary Kicks Instagram,
and I did make a little bit of a profit on these.
So what I did was I took that profit, and I did make
more merchandise for my channel.
So as you guys can see, there are a ton of different ways to start coming up.
I recommend Grailed.
If you want to get the item on release day, I showed you how to do that.
I showed you how making an Instagram account may be beneficial using
the specific hashtags,
and I did give you a little insight on how really I do it,
because I don't really necessarily need to
resell like I used to.
Although I still recommend it because let's say, I need to
make that car payment one day.
I can resell a pair of Yeezys, in case I didn't make merch that month.
That's all I have for you guys in this video.
Thank you so much for watching.
If you could, please make sure you smash that like button.
Let's try and get this video to 3000 likes,
because I do think it is an informative video
that I think all of you can benefit from,
and drop a comment down below on what you think is the best way,
you maybe, you can let other people know that I didn't really touch on
to try and make some money to get this kind of stuff.
Go check out some other videos if you haven't already on my channel.
I do make a lot of streetwear videos, along with Vlogs and cool pick up videos.
We got the merch for sale on my website.
