[arin-discuss] Offer to buy IP space

[Scott Leibrand]

Such an offer could be legitimate: ARIN does allow transfers of IPv4 
space to "organizations that are within the ARIN region and that can 
demonstrate need for such resources in the exact amount  which they can 
justify under current ARIN policies."  For details, see 
https://www.arin.net/resources/request/transfers.html

At the moment, though, anyone who qualifies to receive space via 
transfer also qualifies to receive space directly from ARIN, so I don't 
expect a lot of legitimate transfers to occur until ARIN's free pool is 
exhausted...
