QUESTION
Buying Direct - I am wondering if you know of a direct location were to purchase tile instead of going through a distributor or a wholesaler?ANSWER
ANSWER - Most manufacturers will not sell direct to the consumer and they require large container quantity orders.For your protection you are better off working through a distributor who can stand behind the product and is located in the USA. Plus having a good quality showroom to work out of will help you better visualize and design a special room.
