Any one providing price points for that?

Yes and no if you don't know anything you could be tricked when given
a virtual server instead of a real dedicated server but it's not rocket
science to know this when it happens. But yes if you don't know it's
possible.
That said if you know what you want from a host and ask questions before
signing just up and get decent answers to them I wouldn't worry too much
about that. You can tell by the answers to your questions if a provider is
knowledgable or not. If they're not this is where you spot it right away.
Any good provider would be more than happy to answer any question you
may have before you signup....really good ones will tell you even if they
can't provide some of the things you require as in the long run that will
benefit them more than selling you something they don't have.
It's better to get 1 client less for now and get his business later than having
unhappy clients....in the end unhappy clients cost a lot more than having a fe
less but happy clients.
Allthough not EVERY provider would agree with me on this
