Online tile stores? Really?

[Dan]

I didn't expect to find a tile shop online due to the weight of the damn things and delivery charges etc etc. But I have found one (which i've included in the link section - http://www.tilersforums.com/web-links/509-tile-click-online-tile-store.html).

Do you lot think you would by from a tile shop online?

 

[Concept PHT]

Yes I think I would. The only thing is that it would have to be cost effective (of course) and also I would need a full colour brochure to show the customer. Plus a sample board with a range of tiles on there to show textures.

I think this idea is aimed at the 'just get in and refurb my bathroom' type customer.

I agree with the type of customer it's aimed at. I suppose if you see a tile name in your local store and then find it cheaper on that site you'd go for it. They don't seem mega cheap though.
