[quote=FlyerInHi]I was at the Chinese home material company again today to offer some white Quartz. 2×9 slab for $220. Unbeatable price.
I was making small talk with the young lady manager. She went on “I don’t want to say it but American fashion is at least 5 years behind China. See this porcelain tile there, we’ve had it for at least 10 years. We import it here and Americans go Oh my god, it’s so beautiful, we’ve never seen it before”.
Sleek Eurostyle kitchens are only becoming mainstream in USA.
Chinese merchants work hard. It’s no wonder they are plenty to low level millionaires (and above) who can pay cash for real estate.[/quote]
Huh. We put porcelain tile in our family room (in San Diego) in 1998. No one acted like it was very new. People get a little mixed up. New vs. new to you.
