As far as I'm concerned shoes are worth what they say on the box...All prices afterwards are just what the resale market charges, just cause people pay rape prices doesn't make that their true value. It just means there were enough people with money who really wanted the shoe. In my eyes yeezys for example are worth 210 or whatever they cost retail and all the fools who ride kanyes nutsack will pay 2g's cause they're dumb doesn't make the shoe worth that
With all due respect, this is just ignorant. We live in a market-based economy. Would you claim the Amazing Spiderman #1 is worth 12 cents because that's the price that was stated on the item? Or, some crazy collectible stamp is only worth a nickel or whatever because that's what postage was at the time?
And, what about when an item can't sell at its originally set price? Do you still say that item is worth it's MSRP (the "s" stands for "suggested" BTW) when it is being sold at 50% off all over?
A company producing an item does research to determine a price point and that price is an estimation of what they predict to be the item's value. That's the beginning of the process of determining the value of that item, not the end.
