While at TOTH this year we chatted to a plate dealer. He claimed to have sold £9k of plates that day! He gave a couple of quotes for plates whilst chatting too. They seemed "generous".
Several years ago I was reading about personalised plates and the advice was contact DVLA for info and details, availability etc as dealers often didn't have the numbers pre bought. Also watch for the periodic auctions of plates. From quck searches of the DVLA site there are lots of potential numbers available for £250 with some creeping higher.
