self adhesive wall tiles for bathroom

Anybody heard or used http://stickandgo.com/?
Bacially I'm replacing my bathroom suite but don't really want to replace the tiles and then maybe having to re-plaster the walls etc. I belive the suite will come out with little damage but that's yet to be seen.
I'm looking at the idea of using self adhesive wall tiles that are suitable for a bathrooms.
I've found the above link but it wasn't recommended to me. Looks like a one man (David Garrett) company which I don't mind if they can be trusted. They are on eBay but not currently selling and same for Amazon so not sure if they are still in business.
Does anybody know where I can get self adhesive tiles from?
I've not really looked other than the normal DIY stores and can't say I have seen them.
Google doesn't find a great deal.
Cheers

I'd think twice before using them near a bath or sink etc. They aren't sealed together so water WILL get through the joints and lift them off the wall or even damage the wall.
You can almost guarantee that they look fake too.

what an incredible coincidence - the op mentions a company and lo and behold 2 posts later the said company owner posts a reply as his first post
what are the chances of that happening0 -
so if BQ or wickes rang you up to place an order, you would turn em down?

When you have a website, I believe that you can see where incoming links have come from in the statistics and so he probably saw that he was getting hits from here and then saw the post, so nothing fishy about that

I looked into using these a while back and e mailed the company -I was told some samples would be sent to me but they never arrived. It sort of put me off as I was thinking of using them around kitchen and oven and wanted to check what they were like before I ordered.
I'm still intrigued by them as they do seem to look attractive on the website and worked out at as fair price.Mary
I'm creative -you can't expect me to be neat too !

We cannot be found within retail stores purley because we will not supply them as the retail store buyers are not the kind of people who we wish to deal with - we sell direct to the customer.

Don't know about this make, I used a few others in small areas, and found any surface irregularity shows though as the tiles are thin and flexible, they are not waterproof, as there is always going to be a thin joint where they butt together.
In a large area any slight creep off line gets worse, as you can't tweak them back in line, as there is no grout to fit the changing gap.
However the ones I've used stuck well, and have worn well, and are a quick and easy fix compared to real tiles.0
