It's still wrong. The regular RIPE fee is 1.400 EUR per year. They redistribute excess earnings though, so the invoices for me were never above 1.000 EUR per year.
And, I for one does not expect the generous redistributions to continue due to both general price increases of ~10% per annum and a stop in the explosive growth of LIRs (i.e. the oversized budget contribution of signup fees)) due to the new /24 rules...
