How To Select A Dealer
With Oriental Rugs, there are so many different designs & styles, shapes & sizes
that you may feel like a kid in a candy store!
If you don't know Oriental Rugs, know your Oriental Rug Dealer!
Buying an Oriental Rug can be a rewarding and enjoyable experience as long as
you are dealing with a reputable dealer. A reputable dealer should spend time
teaching you about Oriental Rugs before you make your purchase.
A reputable dealer will also disclose their terms and conditions before the
sale. For example, a rug should be fully returnable and refundable, no questions
asked, within a reasonable period of time (2 weeks) provided that it is in the
original condition in which it was purchased. Some dealers will even permit you
to try a rug in your home, allowing the rug to sell itself.
How To Find a Reputable Dealer
If you are in the market for an Oriental Rug, we would suggest asking friends
and family about Oriental Rug dealers they may have bought from.
To establish the legitimacy of an Oriental Rug dealer, you may want to contact "ORRA"
(Oriental Rug Retailer Association) to see if they are a member. ORRA has an
established code of ethics and policies that a retailer must abide by which
protects the buyer's best interests. ORRA, Inc. headquarters can be contacted at
PO Box 1643, Gordonsville, VA 22942.
