Since AS1 (BBNPLANET) was bought for around 666 million way back when,
as I recall..
your 1k purchase would be -outstanding-.

I'm not sure a particular AS number has any relevance or any monetary
value
unless there is scarcity.
You are discounting (pun intended) vanity and marketing. I am no longer
surprised at what people will be willing to pay (sometimes astonishing
amounts of) money for.
I suppose I can't argue with that, but anyone technical enough to know
what an AS is should know better. Also, would it really count? What if I
opened a small ISP in some carrier hotel and paid 1000 bucks for AS 1. I'm
not sure I'd want to sign a contract with someone dumb enough to think I
was the first company on the internet.
