Buying tiles online

[jsw...@googlemail.com]

I´ve recently started to hear about something called ´online tile shops
´...Online tile shops? Who on earth would buy tiles online? Buying
tiles for your kitchen on the internet is not like buying a book. You
need to see the tile, touch it, get a sample (or a few) to take home
and see how it looks on your floor for example. Seeing a picture of
the tile is just not enough.

>From this forum we encourage customers to buy their tiles either
online or from their local shops. We would be very
surprised if the online shops out there weren´t offering a samples
order facility before having to purchase a certain quantity of tiles.
We agree, buying tiles on the internet is not like buying a book but
(and we say it again) that´s why the offer of getting tile samples
before a proper purchase because, as you say, a picture is not enough.

The comfort of buying your tiles online from home while enjoying a cup
of tea versus the advantage of seeing beautiful displays of tiles in
your local showroom. What option suits you better? The great thing of
any choice is none other than that, having the choice, and at the end
of the day whichever yours is, it´s down to the type of customer you
are.
