@justvisiting Well, with tax, the jcrew website sale would be $174.89 and I paid $170 shipped, so it's close. Actually, getting the points and probably not supporting the sellers who obviously aren't like me and you, just selling old stuff, would have been better. I truly didn't think these would make it to sale + percent off in my size. Most of my eBay purchases are for used clothing. Also, if J Crew would be more reasonable with their pricing and more generous with the frequency of promos, I'd be less likely to turn to eBay. :)

Wow, that was a great deal since I thought $165 was pretty amazing! I'm tempted to order two Talitha's from ebay but I have mixed feelings...not so much concern for JCrew but more about supporting the sellers. I guess they're not doing anything illegal or else JC would shut them down.

Thanks @justvisiting I actually bought mine brand-new on eBay for less than what I would pay with this sale (thank goodness!). The only thing I don't get are the rewards points. :)

Did you see your shoes are marked down, + 25% off, plus the points you'd get on your rewards...@kittywitty

So glad to hear they worked out for you kw!

Glad you love them!!!

@fashion4everyone I sized up a half size, too. They are quite pointy! They felt comfortable walking around in my carpeted bedroom. I might add a little ball of foot cushion. Seems like it might need that for all day wearing. I don't think I'd care if the Valentino's hurt my feet! They are so amazing! lol

@kittywitty I love these shoes and the Valentino's. I have not worn these yet. I did have to size up. When I did I found them to be quite comfortable. We will see once I wear them how they do for the day.
