Here's a thought. Would it be possible to set up a process where ARIN, as part of reselling IP addresses, either issues a certificate of transfer that the new owner can use to prove to the ISPs that he's a new owner and not the old evil spammer, or ARIN publishes a list of IP assignments that can be used by ISPs to provisionally remove them from blocked lists?
I sympathize with the original poster, it's sort of like buying a used car, only to find out the previous owner was the drunk driver who ran over your next door neighbor's dog.
I used to run the AHBL and ARIN used to contact us when they recycled IP space. We always removed when contacted by ARIN.

ARIN hasnt contacted us for this since i've been involved with the ahbl for ~5 years. just a FYI.
