Wow nice prices. Are you guys a datacenter? Give us some info on your company or the company you are selling this for.

Is it possible to have DS3's run to your location? Where are you located? Full duplex correct?

Geez.... I felt physically elated when I saw that price. Good work negotiating!! You have a strong future ahead of you if you keep this kind of thing going. :)

BTW... is it level3 only... or is there a fallback carrier should there be a problem?

Do you have an IP address we can traceroute to? From tracing to your domain name, it looks like it went over to Europe.

Although it may be possible (anything is these days), I have a relative who works for Level3 at the executive level, and doubts that this is Level3 only bandwidth.
According to him, pricing is in the 90-150 range for 100M depending on what kind of salesperson you get and the potential they see with your company.

At $50 per M, you have to assume they are making a profit, and the only provider that I know you can do this with is Cogent.

Has anyone else out there got this kind of pricing from Level3?

I didnt even get that low of pricing. I was told 180per Mbit for 200Mbit of bandwidth and this was 3 weeks ago.

I figured nobody else has that price.

BTW, I think your pricing is a little high. You might want to shop around a bit on that one.

Remember to get a competitive price from Level3, you must first fill out a NDA and Credit App. This is their new procedure to quote you anything outside of rack pricing.
