Anyone charging end users for IPv6 space yet? :p

ISPs already charge for bandwidth link capacity.  Why charge a fee to
discourage subscribers from adopting a protocol that will let the ISP
sell larger capacity links?

IPv6 packet headers are 40 bytes length,   Versus  IPv4  headers which
were ~20 bytes.
