Well at the risk of stating the boring, try eBay!! I've gotten some amazing deals on proper cycling shoes including a new pair of Dettro Pietros in size 45 for $34 (and that was Buy it Now). The smaller sizes seem more common but you gotta know your European size. $150 for a pair of leather cycling shoes? Maybe in ten years when the supply of old new stock is dried up but we're not there yet by a long shot.
