Being new to rugs as i am, and knowing nothing as i do, how would i do to buy this from rugman.com?

http://www.rugman.com/AreaRugs/1700410010.html

i like the natural dyes and the vintage age in excellent condition... and the dimensions will fit my space well.

moneys a factor for me; if i am buying anything i would rather spend for the good quality.... but i don't wanna over-invest in rugs since i have never maintained a rug before--and i question my ability to care for rugs properly.



so, i gotta get smarter and do the research and not jump into anything..... but i want to cover up the floor space sooner rather than later.

so while i mull over the idea of developing a Rug Hobby, can you advise me on whether this thing is worth the $14/sq. ft. that i have calculated it to be priced at?

The ZOOMed in ends of that rug look strange to me. Rug Pro, what's your say?

How about is this one a more advisable purchase?

it is not represented as "handspun wool," "vegetable dyed," or vintage age in excellent condition... but ???????
