Worth? What does "worth" mean? The sunglasses you see for $150 retail cost less than 1/10th that to make. And that's loaded cost. Read Oakley's 10-K sometime--selling designer sunglasses is like printing money.

Then, when that depresses you, we can talk about the $8 Nikes you're wearing.

The best way to buy heavily marketed, hugely marked-up consumer products (except Porsche parts, of course) is usually through unauthorized distribution channels.
