Bill,
We can quibble about semantics, but let's go with your verbiage:
If I run a network and qualify for an /18 right now, can I go to ARIN
and lease one? I must either /pay someone to release their addresses
to ARIN to lease to me/ or lease one from a (non-ARIN) 3rd party.
And that should always be the expected, release them to ARIN which
should be the only actor taking care of it.
I really fail to understand how can one consider legit that a 3rd party
could be doing this job otherwise.
If everybody sticks that what is expected, things work better, is much
better to trust ARIN to do this plus in the end doing in such way
doesn't least space for speculation, price rises and community have the
assurance that the one who is intermediating it is someone really
neutral and with no other interests to the business other than make sure
the policies are being followed.

And the amount I must pay (commonly referred to as the Purchase Price
in most IPv4 transfer contracts, whether I'm technically "buying" it
or not), is significantly more than either typical lease rates or
ARIN's annual fees. My point is that 3rd party lessors do provide a
service that ARIN does not.

Tom,
I think you misunderstand the transfer market. You don't buy
addresses
on the transfer market. You lease addresses from ARIN and then pay
someone on the transfer market to release their addresses to ARIN for
lease to you.
