Contrary to HID's (and others') assertions that HID deliberately prices 125 kHz more expensive than 13.56 MHz to encourage using higher security formats/discourage the use of insecure 125 kHz products, we typically find this to not be the case.

Take this pricing, for example:

To that end, I can confirm unequivocally that for the same "type" of card from HID (i.e. PVC for all technologies), the "list price" from HID for a standard Prox card is higher than the cost of an iClass SE card which is higher than the cost of a SEOS card. Said another way, SEOS is the lowest-priced and Prox is the highest-priced.
