TotallyOz Posted December 1, 2010 Posted December 1, 2010 I have seen Lucky Plate numbers in the Middle East go for over 20 Million USD. The idea seems to be catching on. Here in Thailand, 9 is always a lucky number. In a recent auction of numbers in Chon Buri, here is an interesting article about the sale of numbers. 301 lucky number plates were auctioned at the weekend in Bangsaen. The numbers, containing mainly the digits 8 and 9, generated an income of more than 30 million baht, the highest bid being 1,100,000 baht for the number กษ (Kor Sor) 9999. Sriracha, 28 November 2010 (PDN): On the 27th and 28th November the auction of lucky number plates for seven seated vehicles took place at the Tide Resort Hotel, Bangsaen, Chon Buri. The 8th lucky registration auction was chaired by Chonburi governor Mr. Wichit Chatphaisan and Mr. Thianchai Jongphien from the Department of Land Transport along with his team. Attending the auction were many local people, businessmen and local politicians. http://www.pattayadailynews.com/en/2010/11/28/bangsaen%E2%80%99s-8th-lucky-vehicle-registration-number-auction/ Quote
