Counter point - I got my favorite ankle boots repaired (the sole was falling out of the heel column, the flat part was fine) and buffed for less than $40. He even repainted the heel to hide a bunch of scuffs I'd gotten on the shoes over the years, and buffed the suede for me as a free service.
Don't feel like you have to go to the fashion district of new york for solid repair work - sweet old grandpas in the corner of a strip mall can do just as good and you're paying for their kid's college. Check reviews, and if all seems good then go ahead.
