            <br>
            we are in the process of winding up a company that was
            assigned a /22 IPv4 subnet from APNIC and we're looking for
            potential buyers.  Given the notorious scarcity, I thought
            it should be a fairly easy process.<br>
            <br>
            As a first step, I contacted a registered IPv4 broker listed
            on the APNIC website (<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://www.apnic.net/manage-ip/manage-resources/transfer-resources/transfer-facilitators"
              rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.apnic.net/manage-ip/manage-resources/transfer-resources/transfer-facilitators</a>)
            but got no response at all.<br>
            <br>
            I then tried to ping a pre-approved account holder (<a
              moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://www.apnic.net/manage-ip/manage-resources/transfer-resources/listing"
              rel="noreferrer" target="_blank"><a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.apnic.net/manage-ip/manage-resources/transfer-resources/listing">https://www.apnic.net/manage-ip/manage-resources/transfer-resources/listing</a></a>)
            that was looking specifically for a /22 and, again, got no
            reply.  :-|<br>
            <br>
            I'm a bit puzzled.  Am I missing something?  Is a /22 too
            small to be interesting for prospecting buyers?  Or are
            there other channels that should be used instead?<br>
            <br>
            Thanks,<br>
            Corrado Fiore<br>
