Mexican Tiles in Red
I was looking for those tiles for a long time. We purchased some of them while traveling by car from Mexico down to Mexico a few years ago and didn't buy enough. Those red mexican tiles are up to our expectations but we didn't realize we had to pay Canadian import tax even though they advertised free delivery. Mexican-tile.net explanation was that they offer free shipping to the US buyers and only those located on the mainland.
