I picked up my last pair (Euro 48) of specialized shoes from Ebay, $35 for an MSRP $169 pair of shoes NIB. I didn't see any deals like that today though.
Well I see that there are a couple pairs of size 14.5 and 14 sized shoes on ebay... they are the Nike YVR for buy $44.99 with 1 day left and a pair of Specialized Sports for buy it now of $59.99. Any idea on which pair is better?

I saw the sports and they are probably a decent shoe but 59.99 isn't that great of a price. I don't know anything about the YVR. I've had Nike Pedalli-Combo and Nguba II's and they weren't very good but they were the bottom of the line at the time.
I have a similar looking pair of northwaves and what I don't like about them are 2 things. The sole is too flexy (Which leads to hot-spots at the cleat if your not using a pedal with a platform) and they're narrow. I pretty much wore mine out and the thing that failed first was the straps ripped off along the stitch-line (like tearing a perforated coupon off a sheet). I had a shoe-repair place replace the straps.
