    When I got mine I was told I had to get a new one as they wouldn't reprint non personalised plates.

    I went to VINZ for mine.

    You can get a new plate from VTNZ. Always get a new number - it is cheaper - under $20

    They fall off bike often so it is a common thing to get a new one.
    Ride it until the wheels fall off...

    Don't you wish you owned plates.co.nz? $8.80 for a replacement plate must mean it costs about $2 to get it made. Selling personalised plates @ $700 a set for cars is a pretty good mark up!!

    Should have said, it was a square plate, so had to be ordered in and shipped in next day... and still only $8.80. Very good markup

    Do NOT go into a Post office gfor replacement plates. Go to a testing station or some AA offices
    To see a life newly created.To watch it grow and prosper. Isn't that the greatest gift a human being can be given?

    Why not? You can do ownership and reg renewals etc...
    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    unless by chance your local PO is different they actually dont carry the plates in post offices. -they can do the lectronic transactions but not plate issuing

    OK - so it would pay to check first. Or just go to VTNZ.

    Most of that goes to ACC or somewhere. It's not all "profit" for the plates people.
    Measure once, cut twice. Practice makes perfect.

    Really? I guess it's a government tax of some sort. I'm sure almost all of the profit goes to some government department. If it was ACC I'd be thinking "are they implying that having a personalised plate increases my risk of having an accident?!"

    That's an intersting point. IMO most - not all, but most - people with personalised plates are cocks. And chances are if you're a cock then you're going to drive like a cock.
