I need two cartons of 12x12 Ragione white floor tile from batch 8-14/06/03 size/shade M/81N or a batch that matches that shade. Home Depot carries that product and sold me two cartons of that white but inadvertently loaded cartons from another batch which don't come close to matching. HD can't help me - I've visited seven HDs and they all now have only the grayish white, although designations remain the same as the white (Model RGN22WT, HD #177412).

Will pay top dollar for two cartons of the correct shade.

IF you have a upc, I can try looking it up. I get customers with that problem quite often and I just get on the phone and call all the stores till I find it. Or have them call the manufacturer. Chances are they won't have it though. I would normally tell them to lay a tile from each box but this tile really does need to match. Or if you are putting it in an area where it will be covered (ie: dishwasher, refridgerator, or a piece of furniture) then lay the non-matching tiles there.

Jan, thanks for the reply. I suspect tiles from this or similar batches cannot be found, so I know I will have to start the job over. I can use any tile that is as white or nearly as white as the one I'm going to have to scrap. But it appears no one manufactures a tile that is nearly as white. Every showroom says they do until I lay piece of my white tile next to theirs. The current Ragione White at HD now has a grayish cast whereas Ragione White I want and they can't match is more of a "refrigerator" white-white.
Any suggestions?
