Last year I learned that Dal takes there discontinued tile and sells
to discounters for pennies on the dollar. In this case I needed four
bull nose tiles for the counter edge. HD carries Dal so I went there.
The side profiles were different for what was in stock and what I
needed. Called the local Dal person; only to find out they did not
have what we needed...sold discontinued stock.
By chance a person in the condo complex was doing a bath counter
change and sold me six tiles ( 2 spare in case ) cost $20.00. (G)
This tile was only about 5 years old.
