$125 ... they are borderline insane.
Should I mention that one can get a brand new 5-port 1gbit switch for just $10 ?
No wonder multi-gbit adoption is so damn slow and most people simply don't care... with these prices for switches !
This is actually a pretty decent price. You are not wrong on the slow adoption but 2.5G is getting there.

No, it is not. Not even close to decent.
https://www.anandtech.com/show/15916/at-last-a-25gbps-consumer-network-switch-qnap-releases-qsw11055t-5port-switch
Look at the date of the article.
This was the first consumer 2.5gbps switch ever, and it came out at $100, and it was very overpriced even at that level. 2.5 times the speed for 8 times the price vs 1gbps.
More than two years later, $150 is "decent" ? Heck, one would expect these things to drop $50 less by now, not MORE.

When you can get a 10-port, 10Gbit rack mount switch for $50 more, these prices are insane....
