That's why you have to justify your allocations in the first place. If there's no good reason why you need the extra ip's for your site to function, you shouldn't be getting extra ip's . . . period.
Justification *IS* needed on dedicated IPs, however that's not what I'm talking about. If you have multiple sites on muliple Class C's you can accomplish this without any problem. You don't necessarily put the different Class C's on the same machine, you have multiple machines or multiple hosting companies that you are involved with.

We currently host on 30 different Class C's. All are justified as we have hundreds of dedicated servers. We can then sell SEO hosting to any number of people as they would have a "mini" site on several different servers using multiple shared accounts on several Class C's.

To the other users regarding expense, it depends on what you call expensive. If $30 is expensive, then maybe it is But if you're concerned about $30, then you're likely not involved in SEO.
