Sometimes not, sometimes both. But if they didn't want the low ASN, it'd
be a lot easier to go get a new one than to do all the paperwork for a
transfer. It's an image thing, pure and simple. If people know you buy
your ASN, why not make it a good one.
Not really. Consider the hassle associated with telling all of the peers of the network you've acquired to change their ASN.
