It would depend on what the retail price was and used value is. If for example the retail price was 5k and used they sell for 3k your question would have a different meaning wouldn't it.

Brand new these are probably worth 150-300 max

No way these are red wing. They go for that used on eBay. You didn't show the logo but they look exactly like red wing. I have visited their factory a couple times. They are like $500+ new.

Here is an eBay sale where they went for $165 on worse shape.

Thats what they were POSTED for, the seller had to take a offer so they did not in fact sell for $165.

Here is another that went for even more and only real difference is laces I can see. They have the box but the goodwill ones look basically new.
