Need a pair of shoes for my first marathon. I've been running/training on barefoots (Atreyu). Is really the Vaporfly 3 as good as its pricetag?

If it’s your first marathon I would suggest getting something without a carbon plate in it. Vaporflys are designed to make you that 0.1% faster once you have expended every other avenue. It’s. The equivalent of buying a £10,000 full carbon road bike for your first ever race.

I disagree, I can usually find a (new) pair of VFs or AFs on eBay in my size for about $200 - that's not much more than I'm already paying for daily trainers from On or Hoka

Prices vary around the world I guess. In the UK Nike AF or VF (£240-£280) are over double the price of endorphin speed 3’s (£114), but my point is they don’t make you twice as fast.
