Around the year 2000 to 2003 we were really pleased when we found old tiles like this.
Because through ebay we discovered Americans would sometimes pay upto 250 dollars US for certain tiles and mail to the states was cheap compared to now (Thanks Australia Post).
Nowdays the price has droped by nearly 90% to around 20 to 30 dollars Australian on average.
But the tiles themselves have not changed they are still as beautiful as ever and we are still happy when we find them.
Though to be really honest, not quite as happy as back then. haha
Cool blog you have happening here, followed your link from Beach Vintage and really enjoyed your posts about discovery in hidden corners. Old QLD'r buildings are treasures, thanks for sharing.
