What is the market price of a modern desk?

As someone in the market for a new work desk, I find myself scratching my head. I can't quite figure out why designers of modern furniture insist on form over function.

Take this desk for example. It's a simple design, but not quite large enough for my needs. Perhaps it is just me, but when I take a look at a desk like that, I would expect it to be 'modestly' priced. By modest, I mean reasonable. For $899, I would certainly be looking for a lot more in a desk.

What do you think? Am I being too harsh?
