I have been offered a GigE out of Seattle for $18k per month - is that a decent deal? Apparently I can get the same in LA / San Jose..

depends on the carrier.

Yes, It all depends on who is the provider and backup connectivity. We need more info to give recommendation.

It is a good deal unless you're talking about Cogent, HE, Williams, Telia, or BtN.

If it's a Level(3) line it is a very good deal!

About the only ones that will provide that type of pricing ARE Cogent, HE, Williams, Telia, BTN, and Yipes.

OF course Cogent is available a lot cheaper then $18 for a gig commit.

Also, there are some companies that are purchasing from some of the above carriers, and reselling a 'blended mix'

We can offer a mix of carriers for that pricing in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

I $18k is no problem for 5 of my carriers. Call me if you need a quote.
