While it is philosophically correct, but practically it might not work. 1- if there wouldn't be any benefit/enforcement in returning the unused IP, no body would return 2- denying buy/sell process would move such transactions to lease/rent transactions The whole process is a broken and at any time based on any policy which comes to make it better, some players have tried to use most out of it. It seems still not sure if there could be a best complete solution to this problem, but there could be several intermediate remedies which can make different aspects of the process better. Like making the transfers safer and easier and more reliable for the members.

If the LIR does not need the IPs so is then willing to sell them, instead they should hand back to RIPE. Why is it allowed for a public resource such as IP Addresses allowed to be used for large profits in such way. It annoys me. Hand them back to RIPE, so can be added out to a LIR who needs the addresses. It's all about greed and money.

First, RIPE NCC work for it's members (I still hope so). Members needs in safe IP transfers. Second, only RIPE NCC staff decides either the transfer will be successful or not. For any other parties (escrows) it is unpredictable, and often not understandable at all. It can lead to mistakes, which can costs RIPE NCC members a lot of money and some time even a business. Third, YES, I want RIPE NCC to be responsible for money involved in transfers. Now if somehow transfer is reverted - that's only a buyer problem. Do you think it is really good? Now in case of any mistake which in fact costs hundreds of thousands euros, RIPE NCC put their hands in pockets and show the poker face. I do not think it is good and fair. Of course, I do not want RIPE NCC's escrow to be mandatory, but only a (good) option. If you don't want to show RIPE NCC staff your financial side of the deal - you are free to choose any other escrow, or do not use any escrow at all. 09.05.18 15:22, Sergey Myasoedov пише: > Hi Max, > >> Buyer transfer money to escrow.
