Chongster 6th Gear February 5, 2011 Share February 5, 2011 Hey guys i came across an ad in another forum i go to, a bro there selling a SCK97C car plate for $15,000. Really got this kind of money for such a number? If not what would be a reasonable price for such a number? personally, I wouldn't pay $1500 for it. would appreciate any edification from the car experts here on the hang cheng for car plate numbers. thanks and gongxifacai! ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
13177 Supersonic February 5, 2011 Share February 5, 2011 It's depends whether the number got special meaning to you. If there is, u wld paid $15K for a set of number. SCK series quite a long car plate, think shld be somewhere in 1995/1996, so i guess base on 16 yrs and 2 digit number, the owner sure sell high.

Xspace 1st Gear February 5, 2011 Share February 5, 2011 IMO, this totally depends on perception and how deep your pocket is... There is no hard/fast guidelines on what is the cost of ANY numbers... Like # 1, you think it's 100K, others might think 500K, some might think it's $10... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weichien Clutched February 5, 2011 Share February 5, 2011 Unless ur name is Sim Chee Keong house no 97 if not I don't think this no would worth 15k Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sure think it is a lot of money to pay for a plate. But is there a hang cheng or a rough market gauge for used car numbers? bro 13177, is the age of the number any relevant for SXX numbers? I can understand E series or S series got "antique" value, but the SXX series all look and feel the same to me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can understand E series or S series got "antique" value, but the SXX series all look and feel the same to me. I think no matter whether the series of the car plate starts from E* or S* or even S**, if the combination of the number plus the series of the car plate very long, sure the car plate wld be able to fetch high price. Like the first batch of S** series car plate, eg. like SBB or SBC, this set of series might looks quite antique to some pple, and this series car plate at least 20 yr or more!

Xspace 1st Gear February 5, 2011 Share February 5, 2011 $10 cannot even buy the plastic of the plates. Perception in the value of the numbers lah.. [:|] Not talking about the plastics or the materials for the numbers or even the transportation/admin fees involved in all these process..

Chongster 6th Gear February 5, 2011 Author Share February 5, 2011 there's a famous EA5Y i think that's cute. all the number 1s i guess are worth tens of thousands? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timex1441 1st Gear February 5, 2011 Share February 5, 2011 For those who r superduper rich, $15K is peanuts to them. i know of a family tat lives in a bt timah huge house, and all their cars have super nice numbers (e.g. 6, 8, 66, 88). $15K is only a small fraction of the price of a bentley.

SimonTan 2nd Gear February 5, 2011 Share February 5, 2011 How much Would you pay for a number '8' G plate goods van? If cannot own a car number plate 8, maybe G*8*, will be a cheaper option. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celicar Turbocharged February 5, 2011 Share February 5, 2011 Don't quite understand/know how people can get around the rule that car number plates can only be transferred between cars belonging to same owner, still see companies in the business of selling car numbers, anyone knows?

Yeah but then the super rich would go for 6 8 66 88 and not 97. Does 97 mean anything in Cantonese shaghainese or hakka? Btw rich people doesn't mean they will anyhow spend money. Many rich people are very careful with their money. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pelican 1st Gear February 6, 2011 Share February 6, 2011 anyone can sell anything at any price. it is only whether they can find buyer or not. my opinion, for SCK97C, i rather use the $15k to bid for the next upcoming series. SCK is nothing significant to me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whisper_2000 Clutched February 6, 2011 Share February 6, 2011 Astronomical price? Wait till the bidding starts for SKY 1 , 8, 88, 168 etc ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
