Supreme heads who were thinking of driving out to Kmart: I'm sorry to say that your chance of a possible come-up has been cut down. Kmart, the chain of big-box department stores, has unfortunately caught on to their mistake and cut off the tags of those $4 blank Supreme ​t-shirts.

Over the weekend, a very nice person willing to share in their shopping spoils took to the r/streetwear subreddit to send news that Kmart was selling blank Supreme t-shirts for the wonderfully low price of $4. Reddit user CokeSlurpees wrote, "A Kmart in town is closing, decided to check it out and found a bunch of Supreme blanks next to all the other American Apparel shirts. There were about 5 shirts with the tags cut off but looked like they originally had the same tag."

How did this happen? CokeSlurpees had a theory:

Other Redditors pointed out the similarity between the tees found at Kmart and the yellow "Nun" t-shirt from SS17 and the olive Nobuyoshi Araki tee from FW16.

Seizing the opportunity, many took to eBay to re-sell their finds for much, much higher prices.

Kmart eventually caught wind of their mistake and cut off the highly sought-after tags. Reddit user Kauribe shared the news.

Alas, all good things must come to an end.
