<p>The broker is Brander Group, they are registered with APNIC, they
are based in the US (does that count as having legal recourse!).<br>
<br>
Would love any feedback on their reputation. They say they have
checked the IP's before offering them for sale.</p>
<p>I understand that we will have geolocation issues with Foxtel for
months (years?), but we had that with our newly minted IP
allocation from APNIC. So that's par for the course.</p>

<div>1. Is your broker reputable? Just go on and name them
here so people can help.</div>
<div>2. Is your broker's company registered in a place you
have legal recourse if things go wrong?</div>
<div>3. Are they registered with APNIC? <a

<div>Purchases from RIPE should be pretty smooth. Don't do
something silly like try to lease addresses from LANIC or
AFRINIC entities and expect your upstreams here to route
them for you.</div>

I realise this is in the realm of opinion and scaremongering,
but we <br>
have been offered some IPv4 (3 x /22) from a telco company in
Bulgaria <br>
(i.e. RIPE) via a broker. I have APNIC approval etc.<br>
<br>
I have not done this before and they are of course keen to
push the <br>
sale, wondering what due diligence I can do - I have been told
the <br>
ranges. Or should I run a mile?<br>
