Been shopping
Got these pots off of gumtree today. They seemed a good price so got them. Paid 80 bucks the lot. Think they are all cheap. But one had markings. Was wondering if any experts out there could tell me anything for interest and history sake thanks. Also one had an old sticker.

A stick in a pot is better than no stick at all. Remember even the best bonsai started as a stick.

Re: Been shopping
Ok thanks guys. Though they we just mass produced but good to know. Thanks for your knowledge guys muchly appreciated . Can't wait till spring to pot up some plants as most of my plants are in kitty litter containers as pots are normally too dear .

G'Day Sammy,
Great Shopping.
How did you fare with the delivery charges or were you able to source locally without added fuel costs?
