A pack of Supreme x Oreo cookies is on sale on eBay for over 15K USD
Did you think paying 12 euros for Nutella Biscuits was too much?
February 21st, 2020
You can say what you want about Supreme, but even its detractors will have to admit the commercial power of the legendary Box Logo, which immediately makes valuable any object on which it is affixed. It's no surprise, then, that a packet of Oreo x Supreme biscuits was auctioned on eBay a few days ago, arriving, after 84 bids, from an auction base of 200$ to one of 15,999$. This figure will surely grow as there are still four days left until the deals close. To get a sense of proportion, the unconfirmed retail price of the packet of biscuits is 8$. The value of this particular package lies in its being available before the official drop.
These are the already-seen dynamics of the resell market and the FOMO, which this time concern a line of biscuits whose production can be assumed to be very limited. Supreme is famous for the variety of objects to which it has affixed its co-branding. Among the most absurd are pottery angels, a hollow Bible to use as a secret storage space, a fire extinguisher, a pair of nunchuks and a crowbar. But the Oreo biscuits will certainly be the most memorable, absurd and meme-worthy collab of 2020. The huge price of resell reached by the very rare packet of biscuits can only bring to mind the collective madness that overwhelmed our country at the release of Nutella Biscuits, with limited stocks in supermarkets and resell on Amazon at three times the original price. Of course, however, the maximum resell price of a package of Nutella Biscuits was 12 euros and certainly not a figure with which you could very well buy a sub-compact car.
Go to the online auction page on eBay to see if the 85th offer has arrived that will lead to the packet of cookies exceeding the price of 16,000$ and stay connected to nss magazine for all updates on Supreme's upcoming drops.
