Dear all,

 

Would like to check the process on buying a VRN from those dealers advertising in this forum.

Assuming I were to purchase a number from them, how much time do I have to use it, i.e. register it.

Does it make any difference if the number to be purchased was used before or "brand new"?

 

Many thanks in advance

anyone has 1828 car plate to sell? [laugh]

This is not a sought after number in bidding so you can actually bid 1k for it instead of spending more in the open market.

You are quite right, such number has no meaning, not particularly nice and easily bid for without contender.

 

However many people still feel their number plate are worth some money. Done a study on the number bidding results over a few cycles and the following general conclusions: 

 

- Special and rare abbreviation are worth money and not in this rough study.

  

- Single digit and double digits are obviously highly sought after and hence no need to mention more except some poor numbers like '46', '47', '67'. Also other poor 2 digits number such as '56', '92', '43'  that are though sought after but not worth big money where one could try bid at below $2k.

  

- 3 digits are only worth some money when it is nice and have some kind of meaning such as '100', '288', '333', '800'. Otherwise is worthless such as '325', '129', '755', '997'.

 

- 4 digits are only worth money for special numbers and very meaningful numbers such as '8888', '3000', '6666', perhaps something like '3388'.  

 

- other 4 digits that look nice such as '2228', '5566', '1808', '5678' are often not sought after in bidding so easy to bid at below $1.5k. Others like '2227', '8878', are usually leftover and LTA will just release it out for free hence considered as lucky free numbers. 

 

Take a pinch of salt when referencing to car plate number reselling website as these sites are to push up the price and make more money.  

 

Hope this little rough research helps many in determining how much to pay for resell number, or simply just bid for a new number.

 

Cheers!

To add, do try best to avoid these 3 alphabets too, "C", "X", "Z". 

 

C - Sounds similar to Xi (die) in hokkien

X - Represents invalid, symbolizes "finished"

Z - Obviously symbolizes "last"  

 

It could devalue the number plate drastically.
