Great money spinner, number plates. I wanted to save some money and put my car's number plates (slimline) on my Navara when I sell my car. I called VicRoads and asked what it cost to transfer number plates from a cancelled rego car to a registered car; it was somewhere around the $98 mark. Ninety-eight dollars for someone to spend 15 seconds at a computer! Mining the bauxite, shipping it, refining it to aluminium, shipping it, alloying it, shipping it, stamping it and coating it with a paint, then shipping it to a VicRoads office and all the computer logistics management associated with that, then doing the same thing on a computer to assign the plates to my Navara, costs around $78. Incredible.
