Price varies significantly by prefix length, and somewhat by region.
Regional variance may not be as much as it used to be.

Hello, folks!

I have finished multiple (and 5th in RIPE) inter RIR subnet moves in RIPE
region. We have moved multiple /21-/20 networks and awerage cost was about
$10 per ip.

If you compare the pricing that both have made available you will find
one
is posting average prices exponentially higher than the other. When you
trend the granular auction site data the auction numbers demonstrate a
trend  would expect, that smaller prefixes are more expensive since it
takes a similar amount of effort to process a /24 as it does a /20.
Dollar
differences between a  /24 unit and a /17 unit move the needle
significantly.

Based on both of both sets of public data its easy to conclude that
auctions will work for at least small buyers of space if they're
sophisticated enough to address the RIR issues. If you do decide to take
the simple broker approach (not all are simple and not all approaches
are
suitable to simple brokers), use an RFP.  And Yelp. :-)
