I think that might be $40/mo now, but I could be mistaken.

I wonder if something is cooking there.  When I look at a full BGP view, I 
see quite a few ASNs downstream of 19262, beyond some that appear to be 
internal VZ ASNs:

* 12.195.9.0/24    x.x.x.x           701 19262 30079
* 65.198.73.0/24   x.x.x.x           701 19262 40321
* 68.236.226.0/24  x.x.x.x           701 19262 18762
* 137.71.229.0/24  x.x.x.x           701 19262 20258
* 141.155.220.0/24 x.x.x.x           701 19262 36512
