See the enamel plates just sitting on the floor, this is the only shop that selling this kind of old fashioned enamel plates in this wet market. Not many like to sell this kind of old fashioned plates anymore according to this shop owner. These plates are cheap, price ranging RM 1.50 (USD 0.50) to RM 4.50 (USD 1.50), depend on the size of the plates.
