Reply to comment by snapmyhands in Did I get a fair price for my Turkish Rug? by sbayz92

Nice! Although I would find it hard to believe that yours is hand made natural died 100% wool made in Turkey for that price (with import, shipping costs,etc). Unless you bought a few decades ago?

But then again, I know very little about Turkish rugs.

I would say they're likely the same quality, I know it's handmade and wool (purchased earlier this year) but I can't speak for the dyes used.

Fwiw there's a label on the back with the original sale price of £650, then a discounted price of £350 so idk if he buys them back from retailers if they don't sell within a given time, but he always has fresh stock when I see him.

Camden Passage market in Angel, he's there on Saturdays. He actually bartered HIMSELF down to £110 after I enquired the price so almost certainly you could haggle him down even lower.
