Number plate trader

Numberplate trader

A number plate trader is a different animal from a number plate dealer. Generally private individuals working on a relatively small scale; numberplate traders attend DVLA auctions, trawl the numberplate classifieds and the internet buying and selling plates much in the same way a car dealer would.

It's not uncommon for some numberplate traders to have 25+ numberplates on the books at any one time and with the market focussing more and more on quality numbers, numberplate traders have the cash, the knowledge and the connections to by and sell some of the most valuable number plates in the UK.

Number plate traders have been around since the number plate market began and will continue to be a driving source in the market so far as prices are concerned. Buying and selling numberplates has been likened to investing in art or commodities- and like any kind of investing the most knowledgeable and fortunate can make a decent living Numberplate traders and numberplate trading is generally an online activity or one conducted by telephone- the only face to face numberplate dealing takes place at the DVLA auctions held six times a year- a draw for any serious numberplate trader.
