My tile saga has gone the other way.
The price has dropped to £1.5k (from £2k).
Nothing changed, I just said I'm ready to order and they lowered the price by 20% from a discount over their guide price anyway.

Tile SAGA:
So, having decided we did want the expensive tiles and we're just gonna suck it up and pay. I placed the order. Didn't check but they quoted as inc VAT when it was ex VAT. The invoice they sent me was correct but the email was wrong. So +20%
Anyway, I found one of the box box retailers that will do them at -20% so back to the original price. Cancel order with first company and then reorder. Also worked out I was over-ordering so dropped down to just over +10% for wastage and cuts. Tiler will have to be good. This drops another 10% off the price we're in to a more palatable number.
Issue now is that my original order consumed all of the stock so I can't now reorder it with someone else and this has shifted the delivery date to mid-Jan.
FFS I'm an idiot.
