Love it or hate it. There is no in-between.
Reselling has been a concept/ or rather a business that has existed for many years. Many resell different kinds of products to make a profit, and many have made a living for themselves. Many resell shoes, clothes, second-hand items, and other miscellaneous items.
I, for instance, have been learning and reselling shoes in my free time. In these recent months I have made quite a bit of profit and to say the least, it is very rewarding. Those who have been in the sneaker community the longest can proudly say that reselling has indeed ruined shoes. No one is willing to spend thousands of dollars on shoes, but unfortunately, that is the case from now on. A ridiculous amount of price follows every sneaker release, and certain people (younger individuals) are willing to pay. But at the end of the day, people make money, and that is what everyone wants. Sneakers have lost their true essence.

There has been a trend for vintage and second-hand products that many are attempting to resell in recent years. Many buy from thrift stores (such as Goodwill) or other discount stores in search of money. Few are disappointed that these individuals are reselling affordable clothes (targeted to lower-income people). Whether you look at it as unethical or from a business standpoint, people profit from these products and take advantage of the current market.
But that will always be how the reselling business works; one side of the party benefits by earning money. Meanwhile, those who only want to buy the pieces that suit them and pay extra are left in discontent. People will always take advantage of the market in hopes of making a profit, and perhaps you may be interested in it.
