Because the flippers are selling to a host of retail customers that the AD would have had to supply if a "flipper/grey" didn't exist in our reality!

Had to read this a few times, I get the point
I think the hype started when not anyone could get what they wanted, when rolex told ADs to select their buyers
This created an illusion of undersupply and overdemand, which artificially drove up prices.
The “selected buyers” then capitalized on this situation, as any logical person would and selling bnib to greys
In reality, rolex “created” all these flippers unknowingly, that would nt normally exist, creating a new middleman so to speak
