Depends on the airline.

UA (fr'instance) seem to regularly offer "Upgrade for Cash"... which from SYD-SFO lately has apparently been a bit over $1000.. (there is a long thread about this in the UA forum..and yes, that is a lot less than the fare difference to a full Biz fare)

Other airlines apparently will ONLY sell a new ticket... at full price.
