If you can justify a 19-bit (or shorter) prefix block, you can get one direct from APNIC... Perhaps we can circumvent the inconvenience of renumbering for the older ISPs by having APNIC endorse /19s already operated by these ISPs as delegated directly to them?
For a minimum charge of $8192 (USD?) (unless your a member).
True. The lowest tier of membership is $4000 US - and if you're not a member, the IP addresses come at the bargain price of $1 US each, minimum order 8192. I don't think anybody actually pays for IP addresses without being a member. Nobody sane, anyway ;) I was wondering whether, in the interests of the clean up and longer-term freeing-up of the end-user networks out of the NZGATE blocks, APNIC might legitimise the delegations without charge. Stranger things have been known.
Whilst its not the national debt, its still a little too high to sneak past someone under the category `morning tea and biscuits' money.
