On honeymoon around the Italian Lakes, we stumbled across a tile/ceramic warehouse near Lake Orta, and as we were in the middle of renovating a hallway and a couple of bathrooms back in the UK, we got smitten with some Italian tiles.
Spent quite some time choosing what we liked, phone calls to our son in UK to confirm m², and got everything priced up. AOK, so far...
It then dawned on me that the weight could be considerable, and I was amazed that the owner's daughter managed to calculate it within a few minutes: 800kg

We didn't make the purchase, but it was an interesting shopping expedition!
