If you try to become an LIR in your own right, RIPE fees are much higher.
If you're looking for PI (provider independent) resources from RIPE, the costs to the LIR (on top of their annual membership fees) is around 50€/year. An ASN and a /48 of IPv6 PI space would therefore clock in around 100€/year (which is in line with the GP's pricing).
Membership fees are around 1400€/year, with a 2000€ signup fee. The number of PA (provider assigned) resources you have has no bearing on your membership fee. If you only have a single /22 of IPv4 PA space (the maximum you can get as a new LIR today) or you have several /16s, it makes no difference to your membership fees (this wasn't always the case, the fee structure changes regularly).
