EX4200s are abundant for much less in Ebay (for the 24port 1g requirement).
In the 10G space though, indeed, Juniper is expensive.

Dear Mr. Carpenter,
Juniper is expensive. If you buy a new 48 x 10GbE/SFP+ fiberswitch from an H3C
based vendor like Huawei, you get the whole unit for $10,000. All you need in
addition to that are the lasers and these will set you back a hundred bucks per
port in case you select 1310nm SFP+ modules (SMF 80km duplex), rendering a
total price of less than $300 per interface,

I'd love to know what model Juniper you are getting for $102 per 10GbE port and
where you are getting it. The lowest-end 10GbE switch is the EX4600, which
lists at more like $850 per port. You can get higher-end ones with much larger
port counts and get the cost/port down to about half that, but I can't imagine
what you could be talking about for $102/port.

+1, me too!
