Yes, $499 is still a lot of money, but for an incredible pair of shoes that will last you years, it can be worth it -- just as it is worth it is spend $1000 on a purse that you'll carry every day for 10 years.  And if you're worried about the authenticity of designer shoes on eBay--which you should be, because there are scammers out there--buy directly from the designer's online boutique.  Yes, it's more expensive, but they're 100% guaranteed authentic.
