Can't afford a domain name? Buy a plate!

Who said domain names can be expensive? In the United Arab Emirates, the Abu Dhabi Police organized the 14th auction of distinguished number plates.
The number 8 was sold for 8 million UAE Dirhams (more than € 1,700,000). Number 77 was sold for half this price, twice more than number 888.
The record remains 52,200,000 UAE Dirhams for the plate bearing number 1.
