Yo... why are area rugs so damn expensive!?!?

[Mr Hate Coffee]

I'm trying to style up my new apartment and got damn at these prices!


Anybody know where I can get a cheap but quality rug. Makes no sense to pay $150+ for a damn rug.

I guess its because people don't buy a lot of them or are even repeat customers so they have to get what they can from single time buyers.

Quit being cheap buy a handmade Persian rug

150? Bruh, i need a rug for the bedroom and living room and the square footage we need is pushing these shyts way above 150. Im seeing 500 at a starting point.

Maybe you can catch some on sale or in clearance from Bed Bath and Beyond.... look online if you can wait for it to be shipped

I'd consider $150 a steal. I can't find anything I like under $500

I was being modest with my $150... that's for a small rug. But my point is $500 got damn!

Who's paying these prices?!?

Silas: "Yea I remember that bytch."

I think it's the import taxes and the fact that these stores jack up the price based on their "exoticism" of saying they're from "Persia"

When I was in the Mid East, in places like Jerusalem for example, they were completely genuine and WAY cheaper.

One of those 10k rugs at Macys were like a few hundred bucks there.

Bruh you took this thread straight out my head, I was about to make this when I got home, cause Im out looking for one right now. I'm going to go to the good and get one cause 800 for a rug is not going to fly.
