70 dollars for 9ft of fiber with connectors? I almost always make my own cables (fiber included) but for some special jobs where it was a time contraint I'd use pre-made but that still seems very steep. Where are you sourcing cables?

I also suppose not everyone knows how to terminate fiber and I've done it so much it's become second nature.

It might have been closer to $35, I'd have to dig a little. Remember, this is with the SFPs, not just the raw fiber (which is significantly cheaper on its own, even if you buy it terminated).
