There are two extremely valid reasons for this 2nd hand maket :

Firstly, Rick got quite a bit of hype because of pleb artists. But his pieces look completely out of place worn with hypebeast garbage. When hypebeasts eventually realise that (which can take a few months/years, as they are widely known to be slow on the uptake), they resell. That's the reason why Grailed is saturated with Rick's most meme pieces (i.e. geos, ramones, to a lesser extent pods and double layer tees ...)

Secondly, many (and by many I mean MANY) rickfags are broke faggots who can barely afford Rick when it is on a 50% discount. So there is a very strong second hand maket between rickfags, not only on grailed but also on some forums and facebook groups. Many guys who daily wear Rick head to toe constantly have 10+ items on sale to try and get funds for their next purchase (which they will also get in used condition or at a -80% discount on some shady website, of course)

This Anon is kind of right as well, but fails to see the bigger picture

There is a transition phase for any rickfag, where you go from "normal" clothes (usually from a garbage style) to full goofninja over a few years. During this period, you have no clue what you're doing and you are basically LARPing. That's when people will stare at you on the streets, and that's when most will give up

But there's more to it : once you've gained a bit of experience, know what you're doing, and most importantly developed a taste of your own, you drift away from basic full rick to start wearing it differently and mixing it with other designers. At that point, you are not cosplaying anymore, you know how to play tastefully with your proportions, and you have a style that suits you and is not copy/pasted from a lookbook. People who get there look great wearing rick without being laughed at. But once again, not many make it this far and most either give up on their way there or get stuck in rick circlejerk communities
