I jumped onto the middle of the train with my 325is. I love love love them.
The 125i is the least loved Grado of them all, closely followed by the RS2i in terms of sheer numbers who own them.
I believe it's the pricing and acclaim of other models that makes them an invisible model in the line-up.
Most jump in with the SR60/80i and then opt for the 225/325 or straight up to the RS1.
I suppose you could also mention the GS1000, a very misunderstood model.
wait the rs2 isnt loved? you high?
I just meant in terms of popularity and ownership numbers outright against other models.
Will say this though, the RS2i down under in Australia is awkwardly priced.
SR225i is $350 Aus dollars
SR325i is $450 Aus dollars
RS2i is $680 Aus dollars
RS1 is $999 Aus dollars
Meanwhile in Norway...
RS1 - $1645
RA1 (A/C) - $1189
You guys should buy from TTVJ. For some reason, they can ship Grado internationally, unlike other US dealers.
I can't imagine myself buying any Grado headphones in Europe now knowing how much less you can get them for in the US.
It is almost cheaper to fly over there to buy them.

I understand all Registered Grado Dealers are not allowed to ship outside their country due to Grado's international pricing policy. I checked out quite a few American registered dealers and it was the same story all over. I considered using an import service which allocates me a USA postal address, but found the pair I wanted on the head-fi for sale forum.
