You most definitely dont have to pay 150 bucks for top of the line goggles, especially if you buy them on NS.

For $150, you could prolly pickup almost any pair of goggles with a reasonable non-limited style and get yourself 2-3 lenses.
I have Smith Fuses and my prodigys are on their way. People really seem to like the crowbars, I would've gotten A-Frames if I could find any, in my oppinion they're the best looking. Wisdoms have a nice view from the inside, but might not go so well with a helmet if you sport one.

if you wear a helmet get crowbars. if not, get a frames. (oakely)
if you ski a lot in the day, get a fire lens, if you ski a lot during night, get H.I yellow
the fire lens sucks at night.

I thought the Regulators on my Fuse were a gimick, but now that I use them to keep snow out of the lens vents, they are the best goggles I have used. Go Smith (Prodigy, Fuse, Phenom).

Crowbars, and that's the end of the damn discussion. Hands down the best goggle made. It's not just hype.
