I also oppose this proposal.

I believe the best thing that can happen is for IPv4 to run out
completely, as fast as possible.  Increasing the RIPE NCC IPv4 price is
counter-productive to that goal.  Real market prices will arrive when
this happens.
  I'm generally in favour of any proposal that hastens the run-out of
the final /8.
