Today's pricing would be $1500 for the number I would like.
Finding the current registrant, obtaining the number, and transferring it to me is a service TO ME that would be worth the small incremental price on my over $90k purchase.
I can also avoid the cost of registering the number myself for 5-10 years while I'm saving up for the second plane. (I don't finance aircraft)
"one man's trash is another man's treasure" may apply to this practice. But, like it or not, it's perfectly legal.
