The shoes were pretty nice for the price though I found that the BB lasts run a bit fuller through the ankle than either EG or Crockett.

I went over and picked up some black Granthams today....if you are serious about buying, make sure to build in some time for hunting through the stacks for misplaced models, of which there were many.

What was the damage on the Granthams & did they have a range of sizes?

Only half off, so 425. Pretty steep, but I had already invested an hour looking for the brown suede/leather spectators (to no avail), so I decided to go for it, even though I knew I might be able to pick up a cheaper pair on B&S if I waited long enough. I'm going to try them out--I'm hopeful they'll turn out to have been worth the price. As for sizing, they seemed to have tons of stuff between 7-11.5 (there were probably at least 200 pairs of shoes laid out, maybe more) for most of the models included in the sale, though I wish I had gone in yesterday.
