Any customer can go to http://www.msistone.com/countertops and select one of the 12 natural-stone product categories, along with a color. The “Preview Actual Slabs Available In Your Area” button in the top right corner allows for the selection of the nearest MSI location and its available inventory.

Once a customer selects the bundle they are most interested in, information including the number of slabs, and the square feet available is indicated. It is recommended that customers print or copy the Item Description, Item ID, Bundle, and Location; when visiting the MSI location, they can preview their choices, or explore other options.

“With over 30,000 pictures of slabs available, we believe this is the largest selection of real time slab inventory in the world,” Shah adds.
