I know - I cannot imagine how the material cost for those shoes would justify the tag - they must have a huge profit margin on them - a lot of people will pay for the name though... I'm sure they're high quality, but $300 terry cloth?


I was looking at these Valentino wedges on Bergdorf Goodman's site today... really, now, the metal ornament is nothing more than costume jewelry, and the amount of leather used is so minimal... just wondering how they arrived at $750

i was looking at the ebay seller's other items for the NAKED LADY SHOES (detroit's post) and i found my shoes....

they run super big.  so i bought a size 7 and i'm usually an 8.5 so the auction would probably only work if you're a ten or 9.5.
