Here I am again.No.....STILL. Now that I have discovered unearthing chinanery via BLOWING UP images and marking to scale and counting kpsi, I have come upon prime example involving what I read here is David's NJ Nemesis, 1800getascrewing.

See this not unattractive, but entirely NEO new Sarouk they offer: http://rover.ebay.com/ro...9&mtid=824&kw=lg |

Note: they try to preclude your saving their images via the usual ways XP affords!! Commonnnnn...did they think they could stop a Corleone? Grow up. I made a screenshot, cut a piece, blew it up and did my thing.

Now, boys & girls.....these sleazoids across the Rivah....list the kpsi on this at 300.

You will now see they are 182. 14 X 13. Disregard the turquoise dot, that was just my mark for the actual "inch" below which I needed to start counting. The black dots are the Real Dots.

Also cause I am now, however unplanned...emerging as the Little Rug Reformer. Cause NOW< WHEN I FIND this merda, I am going to poKe em wit a STICK; see sent email below. Then see the image wit da dots. Jilly, has learned to COUNT.

Note: this has meaning beyond the obvious. When a vendor lists kpsi accurately, I now see this in new perspective.

Dear 1800getarug,

Hi,

Re this rug, I count 182 kpsi. Where are you getting the 300 you list? Call me crazy, but I only do business with vendors who have integrity.

Right??????? This is SICKENING. Disorganized, I don think so. Purposefully misleading, & with some malice of forethought... I do think so. I had no idea---bout anything I needed to know--- before I found this site.

Also, not even the graphics of their page look "Good." It's all overdone and vulgar. Plus, no rug vendor who has giant, overblown PATRONIZING delineation of OMG, hand knotted rugs are so hot, such a marker for class & discerning taste, they will mitigate yr self doubt; bring U up socio culturally at least 3 notches.......is someone anyone should buy ANYTHING from.

Equates with Mitch's GIANT, desperation=obfuscation driven tutorial of the history of "American" Sarouks in his posts for his practically in the grave, tho once really special... Sarouk.

Did I not catch that immediately from his initial Craigslist post where I first found it???? Yes. But you gotta follow up and make sure. AND, unlike my pics of it....his make it look kinda fabulous. Shouldn't shopping for a rug be FUN? I guess NOT.

These NJ people should be driven outta business---or be forced to start Keepin it Real--- via deliberate dissemination of the truth about them and their rugs & their business practices!!!
