This is probably the number one email we get here at our License Plate Collector website.  We love helping people find what they are looking for.  We are always getting emails asking us to help find a particular plate and we’re always happy to help.  If we don’t have it, we keep the email and keep check and if it becomes available we always let our customer know.  When it comes to License Plate Values, that’s a different story!

If you are a collector of Antique Vintage License Plates, then you realize how tough it is to price one without seeing it.  Yeah we can give it our best guess, but if you have a plate that has value, then you don’t want the value guessed at!

Since we get quite a few emails about this very subject, we wanted to offer a great deal on something that is a must if you want to know the price of your Antique Vintage License Plate.

We don’t know how many of these will be available or how long they will last, so get yours today!

Are You Serious About Your License Plate Collecting?

Whether you are an investor or a serious collector, we have put together the cream of the crop for you!  Do you have a collection you can brag on?  Are most of your plates $5 and $10 dollar plates?  Or do you have a collection that when others see it, their mouth drops open and they start drooling at the site of your valuable License Plate collection?

There’s nothing wrong with being the average Joe collector that collects a few plates here and there.  That’s what makes collecting so wonderful.  You can collect what you want, when you want!  BUT, just in case you are one of those that want the best for your collection, be sure to check out the Collectors Choice category.

Does Price Matter?

When you purchase a License Plate for your collection, how much does price play into your purchase?  We talk to some collectors who say the will spend whatever it takes to finish a series or state or whatever it is they are collecting at the time.  Some say they can’t finish their collection because of high prices.  The Collectors Choice section of our License Plate Collector website has some high priced plates.  But, we would not offer these plates if they were not selling.  So take a look, you might just see something you can’t live without.  Or you may see something that sparks an interest in an area of License Plate collecting that you haven’t thought of before.

As always, thanks for shopping with us and remember to check back often!  Our inventory changes daily and we will be adding more categories in the future.

Featured Item - 1921 Ohio License Plate Pair

There are so many resources on the internet these days, but the internet wasn’t always available.  Imagine how hard it was to build a collection before the days of the information highway!  We do have this wonderful avenue called the internet that helps us find our treasures, but we thought we would list some of the more popular places people find these wonderful collectibles.

• Junk Yards -  Yes you may be surprised at what you can find in a junk yard.  Imagine drudging way back to the rear of the junk yard.  Back where the cars have been sitting for years with weeds grown up around them.  Then you happen across an old car and low and behold the plate is still on it.  There have been some great finds at junk yards.
• Dumps - It always amazes me at what some folks will throw out.  Of course some facilities don’t allow scavenging,  but some do!  How many times have you went to the dump and while your emptying your trash, you see where someone has thrown away a perfectly good item.  Of course the chances of finding a License Plate at the dump may be slim, but it has happened!
• Scrap Yards - Along with dumps, scrap yards are the places where the unwanted stuff ends up.  If you’re like me, your basement or garage fills up with everything imaginable.  Sometimes I’ll take a Saturday and back the truck up to the door and start tossing.  Some of those items are things I may have held on to, thinking they may be worth something someday.  AND, I could have thrown away something that did have value but was tired of seeing it on the shelf or was too lazy to find out the value.  That’s how items such as Antique License Plates end up at the scrap yard.  Someone tosses it, thinking it’s just scrap, but it could be that one Plate you have been searching for to finish your collection.  Or it may be a rare Plate worth thousands!
• Swap Meets - Swap meets have become more and more popular over the years.  And just a note, when we have a chance, we will be adding posts and categories listing all the swap meets around the country.  Swap meets can be an exciting adventure.  License Plate Collectors from all over gathering in one place to show, swap, buy and sale License Plates.
• Flea Markets - Kind of the same thing as a swap meet, but not really! HA.  Flea markets are huge in our part of the country and you can find just about anything at a flea market.  And I mean anything!  But you may just happen across a table at a flea market and find a special Plate just waiting for you.
• Antique Shops - Again we have many antique shops in our part of the country.  You will more than likely find several Antique License Plates when you visit an antique shop.  But, I also think you may pay higher prices from those type places.
• Ebay - Of course we can’t make this list without adding the ever popular Ebay as a great source for finding some of the greatest treasures available.  Obviously our License Plate Collector website is a wonderful and unique collection of many types of Collectible License Plates.  To me, this has made License Plate collecting so much easier and has taken it to another level.  With Ebay you can find great plates at great prices and one of the best parts, you can shop from home!  No driving around the country, no digging through the dumps or scrap yards.

We would love to hear your stories about finding plates and where you found them.  We know there has to be many interesting stories out there.
