Anonymous I was looking for a plate that was a mirror of a plate I have on a classic car. I looked many times (for a number of years) on Regtransfers and DVLA but this was not a existing plate. I requested the plate be issued by DVLA which they kindly agreed to but I would have to purchase through there auction. They gave me notice of the auction and I bid. It wasn't an expensive plate being for a 1983 vehicle. Every bid I placed I was out bid by another and as expected I didn't win. A few weeks later it appears on the Regtransfers site at four times what it went for at auction. I guess that my searches are recorded and they bought this knowing someone wanted this plate. I have bee hounded by calls to see if I would like to purchase. My answer was not at hat price. they have since made two reductions in price of this plate with a lot more to come. Very underhand, and now they are stuck with a fairly uninteresting plate.
