Found this in the CDW outlet while looking for something else:
https://www.cdw.com/product/HP-1920S-8G-SWITCH-US-EN-BSTK/4970495?pfm=srh
Not a bad price considering these are usually no less than $100.

I once found a 40 port Cisco switch at Goodwill for $5. They thought it was a VCR... :))

That's awesome!
I picked up a vintage operating typewriter with case for $10 when it goes for a minimum of $120 online.
I think goodwill is all about turning the inventory vs getting the most money for the goods since they have a constant stream of inventory.

Goodwills are weird depending on who is running each location. Some have pretty straight pricing (small electronics $5, DVDs $1, etc) and then some try to price everything and are almost always way off. I also found a NIB Logitech G602 for $10 that I now use daily at work and I've also seen the other end of the spectrum where they were asking $200 for an Xbox 360 (in 2017!).

Yeah, I think it's related to their turnover rate. It seems like the ones that don't get as many donations price things higher.
