Discontinued Tile


Hi,

I started my first tiling project, a kitchen back splash, but came up about 10 units short on the tile I needed. Yes, I measured incorrectly and didn't buy extra when I had the opportunity.

Could someone direct me to a good source for finding discontinued tile?

I purchased the tile from Nebraska Furniture Mart here in Omaha. Neither they nor any other tile shop in the area carry it. I also called the Daltile warehouse and they say it's discontinued. I've even made calls throughout the US.

Here is a link to the exact tile I'm trying to find:
http://www.designerpages.com/product...vel-Honed-MST6

This is another link: http://www.fastfloors.com/tile-stone...iting-on-specs

These are the specs: Sonora Stone Harlequin 12 3"x6" tiles on a grid. Distributed through Daltile

Thanks in advance for your time.

Joe,

I just called them. They can't find it and mentioned they don't carry discontinued tile.

Thanks for the lead though.

That's weird because they have been a huge supplier for dis-continued Dal-Tile products for years. I have talked to them myself any number of times. I wonder if maybe I gave you the wrong Greenwich Tile. I'll check.

Here, try this guy and see if he knows where he slept last and is still in business. This outfit emailed me one time and I know nothing about them. Good Luck.
