These shoes cost me $130 retail at Macy's.  I can't comment on a price comparison with Amazon, but I definitely paid in full.  Call me a schmuck, but after the last pair of bunion-wreckers I wore I can honestly say that price is no longer an object when it comes to footwear.  These shoes are COMFORTABLE! and they don't look like grandma's diabetic snowshoes either.  My feet thank me every moment I wear them.
