Where do you stand when buying shoes?

Were do you stand when it comes to buying shoes? Are you someone who buys the cheapest shoes, and calls it good? Or are you someone who wants to look good from head to toes, and buy the most expensive pair of shoes?

Personally for me I will spend around $150-$200 depending on the shoes, the brand, ect. Then they will be my only shoes for awhile. However I recently saw someone with "yezzys?" and thought they looked nice and was going to check the price out, turns out they are going for $500-$1500 on eBay. Which is insane to think about. So with that were do you stand when buying shoes?

Edit: Here is a link with the shoes going for even more, crazy!http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/39139547197...noapp=true
