I take it you've never owned a nice pair of dress shoes other than something off the rack? There's more to shoes than just sneakers and their matching Elite socks. I'm not a fan of those mentioned above nor their prices, but I can certainly vouch for shoes that I own that literally take a s$#t on most shoes on the market in terms of value. Just picked up a pair of Ferragamo Andreas which aren't even that premier, but the quality is flawless. In regards to designers, there are plenty out there (Edward Green, John Lobb, etc.) that are truly worth their price as they both outclass and outlast most shoes. Considering this is primarily a sneaker community, the value of a shoe can be subjective, but there is quite a difference in what you think materials, labor, etc. cost from shoe-to-shoe to subject them to the same level...

Edit: Grammar...

You forgot Aldens my dude. I prefer the Wing tips. Very well made and can literally last a life time even if worn everyday. 

If there's any dress shoe you ever buy in your life make it a Alden Wing tip. I'm still lovin my Bolar and Plat purchase as well 

relatively cheap, good quality, is the cole haan lunargrand wingtip

Truth....I copped for retail. 
I am finding most people the copped are just selling.  Since my size were release oversea Ive been dealing with them a lot these past few weeks.  And majority of people not even about shoes, even mid age women just copped the shoes just to resell.

They see these price on ebay and think theyre gonna get like 2500.  but they are sitting.  Most people over sease arent paying this money.  Ive been able to talk 1 person down to $1500 because he got tired of relisting. Luckily I was able to find a pair on ebay for much less.

I think If you're patient and wait it out these will eventually go for $1300 -1500.  So many pairs flooding the market right now.  Then once stock winds down theyll go back up in price....

my predictions.

I would like to cop a pair of plats for the summer but ill wait it out.

Bingo.  If you absolutely have to pay resell on something, you gotta find that low point in the market value.. is that time now?  Maybe.  That's the game.. good luck to everyone playing it :/

Alden quality has dropped off like crazy. Generaiya has supported Alden for years but they will never see another dollar from Generaiya. Restoration costs keep going up while quality and service has fallen off.

If it was anybody else i'd be like "you're crazy that will never happen" but you're liable to get someone to trade you a pair for some New Balances or a pair of Sauconys, lol.

[jecca650]

Just gotta keep an eye out bro they will pop up here and there. $1500 for solars was the best deal I found at the time. About to go back on the hunt soon for these plats.

[dbao]

After thinking about it for a long time, I finally decided that I was just going to keep at least my solars and threw them on today. Even after initially questioning the quality (lots of excess glue, sides already moderately "faded", and even a slightly messed up back), I was really surprised as to how comfortable they really are. I'm glad that I'll be rocking them to death.

Still on the fence as to whether or not I'm keeping my platinums though...
