While trawling thru some Wiki sites I came across this one for Collectors and Antique dreamers..

Share some ideas on the best bric-a-brac markets in Melbourne. Do you have a story about your best bargain so far.. Have you broken anything you've just bought?

Here are some websites I often look at

http://www.portobello.com.au/portobello/
Over 300 articles about antiques and collectables of all kinds

http://www.powerhousemuseum.com/collection/database/

Search 64,140 objects collected from 1880 to the present day from steam engines to fine glassware, postage stamps to robot dogs.

My favorite bargain so far was the purchase of a Wembley Ware salt and peppers shakers in the shape of fish. I paid $3.00 for them and they sold a year later for $125.00….

The Wembley Ware range of “fancy ware” was produced between 1945 to 1961 by HL Brisbane and Wunderlich Ltd/ Bristile. The Wembley Ware range was specifically made for the local market during the 50’s using iconic Australian themes such as animals like the kangaroo, koala, kookaburra and the merino. The Australiana aspect of the ware and the quality makes it highly collectible today.

I have added some more websites for you to browse and here is a photo of my latest find. Can anyone identify its maker? It's a Dolphin Ashtray which a Gold Coast sticker on it and there are impressed numbers on the base rather like Diana or MCP Mingay.
