Mike, Are you saying that you can buy a new Cisco Nexus 3064 or Arista 7050sx for $1,000 new from these vendors, or are you talking about used stuff on eBay? If you are comparing to used stuff on ebay pricing good luck. I doubt you will find many used 100G switches as they are too new of a technology unlike 10G. Hell you can barely buy a couple of 10KM 100G optics from FS.com for less than $1000.
