On October 1, 1999 I started a website selling German beer steins out of my garage, Steins.com and in February 2000, I started another site selling all shapes and sizes of glassware for beer, cocktails, etc PubGlasses.com. I had an affinity and passion for those items. I had a collection of steins and beer glasses. My Great Grandfather came to Texas from Germany in 1897 so my passion for the steins and beauty of them was in my family heritage.
After a couple years of packing and shipping steins and glasses, I was ready for another product line. Everything I sold was fragile and I knew how to pack them well. My Dad owned a moving business and I grew up working on the moving truck and learned how to pack things with their transit in mind but I wanted something I could pack and ship with less time and materials....I thought "I need something that is small, durable and easy to pack....then it hit me, what about dominoes?" I learned to play dominoes as a kid from my Grandmother who had a weekly Texas 42 game with my Aunt and Uncle. I can remember watching them play, being taught how to play at an early age and being included in those games with my family is a fond memory, I cherish. So in 2002, I started DominoMarket.com
Selling dominoes fits in with that same idea as the steins and glasses, I have a passion and connection to the products I sell. We are still a small, independent family run business and now my children are old enough to help me run things and learn from me as I learned from my Dad and Grandmother
We always love hearing "I looked all over for the perfect gift and you had it" or "You were the only place I could find this particular item". So whether it's dominoes or any of the other items we sell, we hope you find exactly what you are looking for as the perfect addition to your collection or that perfect gift
