I know that a shortage of IPv4 addresses has been anticipated for
quite some time (literally decades), however, is there a shortage
*right now*?

yes, ipv4 space is tight

our per IPv4 address price to $2.00 per IP.

open market is O($20) per host address.  that is 'buying' it.  and then
you will pay annual fees to some RIR.
