Ordering From Home Depot

Can't Post | Private Reply

Hello,

We am having a house built in Mexico. I am NOB but want to order
bathroom fixtures from the local mexico
Home Depot or.... Has anyone done this? I went to shopping .com to
check on HD service. The number and types of complaints scared the hell out of me - and
these were about HD in the US!

Does anyone have suggestions? The missus wants to pick something and
we want to save a trip to mexico = if we can.

The house is located near Tula, Hidalgo.

Sincerely, Tony

Why Home Depot? You're reasonably near Mexico City (maybe Toluca?) with it's world class selection of most anything under the sun. While I'm more familiar with Guadalajara, checking the phone book for México should point you to the areas of the city where high end plumbing accessories can be found. Good luck!

Hmmm
Don't know where I wasn't clear.

1. I am NOB so can't drive 2-3 hours to buy a toilet. Can't say I would even if
I was SOB.

2. Am not looking for high end plumbing - just a good selection of standard stuff

Thanks Anyway? Tony

We built a home in San Luis Rio Colorado, tried to order from Home Depot in Mexicali...wish I would have driven 8 hours for the toilet, spent more time than that trying to return the fixtures and get my refund. I would make the trip.
