Finding discontinued MSI Tile

4 years ago

This may not be the exact place I should be asking this, but I "know" many of the posters here who may be able to help. We had our kitchen backsplash tiled 2 years ago. The tile has since been discontinued. We cut the bar down and I need just enough to patch the wall (maybe a 6 foot square area max). The name is MSI Highland Park Arabesque in Artisan Taupe. Do you know of any warehouses, etc., that might sell discontinued tiles? TIA

Try searching for the name and the SKU - I'm seeing a few places. "arctic olive" SKU #CB30. http://www.tileinstyleonline.com/?act=showpbt&tn=5 OR: http://www.artwalktile.com/tiles/36448/Glass+Tiles/Mirage+Glass+Tile/Crystile+Glass+Tile/Crystile+Tile+Mosaic

If the manufacturer doesn’t have warehouse stock, it will Never happen. No one stocks any materials to speak of. It’s all stocked by the manufacturer, and special ordered from them. It’s like trying to find a 2014 blouse from a specific couture collection at a resale shop. The world isn’t set up to make second hands and odd stock searchable.

That's a lot of tile to find stashed in someone's garage. Usually if people have extra for their own homes, they want to keep it in case of damage to existing installations. It would also be rare to have that much overage. I was able to find some matching tile once for renovations on a family member's house from a Seconds and Surplus store in my area. You might try places like that if you think the tile would have been a common one used by builders. You also might consider exchanging more than just the 50 square feet to a natural shift in room delineation and getting something that blends.

Nope called them earlier this week. They order from MSI so can't get. Over the past month I have tried to buy from 3 places online and all had to end up refunding my money because they had to get from MSI, not in inventory. I am trying to find somewhere that might have a sample or 2 in inventory sitting around. I realize it's a stretch, but my last ditch effort before replacing it all. It's only 2 years old, so frustrating! Thank you!

MSI should be able to give you a list of their distributors who purchased that material.
I believe the tile companies in Ontario also work with MSI .
I’m sure it’s very frustrating, when we do any flirting or tile job we alway purchase 5-10% overage , depending on what it is we are doing and that stays with the house.
Good luck
