I’d easily pay more for a plate I really liked and have done in the past.
Just for reference EX11 GES is asking �3,995 and EX11 GER �3000.
So �2500 is usefully less and you get a shorter plate (with no spelling issues) into the bargain.
They finish the car off really nicely, makes it timeless, could help to re-sell the car and with 5 digits can be trimmed down at the front too. As mentioned one of them will be going on my own car.
It’s a case of each to their own. Someone paid �15,000 for PEN15. I’m guessing that wasn’t you!
I have S3 EXG which is only available if someone is willing to swap the available K11RTS (a snip at �9K!). As well as looking like ‘S3 Exige’ a former colleague read it as SEX God!
It just seems wrong that you can go to DVLA, pay �300 or similar then come on here and advertise them for �2500.
What kind of a world do we live in?
JPS is �berplates your business? I only ask as I’d be interested to know what ade’s plate, mine and a few others are worth? I don’t get these prices, yours included and felt your pitch lacked credibility but I also believe there is a buyer for everything. I also believe and would rather pay for a cheeky plate like PEN1S or BOL10X rather than letting everyone know JON is driving an X5 with a V6 that’s just cut them up
I get the whole number plate thing and had several plates in my time. What I don’t get is how you’ve valued these, relatively speaking, nondescript V6 plates when you can buy similar directly from the DVLA for �400. Moreover, you say you lost the plot and bought 4, but you have an assigned email address for selling plates.
Uberplates is also related to an eBay sale of 10+ plates on one ad.
All wasted on me. My car is EX51 GEE and I did not notice until Mark, the seller pointed it out to me. However, my neighbour spotted it he second I dove into the road.
Maybe I don’t get opportunism because it never happens to me, but after finishing 12 hours at the coal face I was probably a bit harsh as I was feeling resentful about earning shed loads for doing FA.- sorry
If interested in any of the plates, please feel free to offer what any of them are worth to you. No-one is under any obligation of any kind, to do any more.
You have to put a asking price as per the rules of this site. Elsewhere, where permitted, I have always invited offers. I have only gone by the asking prices of plates that I consider less desirable than mine and undercut them for good measure.
Certainly wasn’t expecting pitch forks and burning torches!
