Yes David :yawn: so when I see a new one forsale at Beaulieu auto jumble for £40 like I did this year I should just walk past ? like you would in a antique shop if you saw a bargain, even though I need them for my trailer restorations Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian L Posted November 21, 2014 Author Share Posted November 21, 2014 This one's a much more realistic price at the moment. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/131351193977 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The plate itself doesn't look too weathered so would it be possible that the reflectors have lost their red colour or did they start off a bit on the orange side ?

Artifficer Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 ....at the moment.... Hi John As youknow I aquired "T"'s 3 years ago, I payed £210, found at the Great Dorset Steam Fair, but that was for 10 "T" plates, two slightly tatty but the rest fine. They helped to complete several restorations, I sold most at £35 & kept one as a spare Possibly my best find ever!! I've just contacted the seller and he might have more, if so I'll put them on the forum at a fair price. Present prices are realy inflated. Watch this space.

Regards Robin Evening Robin, Yes, I do remember and that you were very fair on the prices when passing them on. When I was looking for a spare plate early last year, the "going rate" on Ebay was about £80. The latest price just shows that there is a demand for them.
