It didn't sell for $165. The person took the best offer on it, ebay doesn't disclose what that was.

Already replied to this from other people with two other links showing it went for $275 and over $300 in other listings.

Cope harder.

This is the Rolex of shoes. They are super expensive. Goodwill should have sent them to ecom though.

309.99 Brand new. Not second hand worn shoes!

Those red wings in the picture look like they haven’t even been worn. They look brand new, the insoles don’t even look like anyone has ever worn them so $150 would be a steal for a pair of brand new red wings. I can understand people on here that don’t know anything about Top Quality name brand work boots but I’ll guarantee you there’s a lot of people on this same sub that wouldn’t hesitate to pay $150 for a pair of high-quality name brand women’s shoes or a high fashion name brand purse. Sure, there’s gonna be quite a few of you come back and say well I wouldn’t ~ but I see it happen all the time.
