Can you tell a quality area rug from a discount one?

15 Mar

I was looking on yahoo answers and found that most users thought that target and home depot sold quality area rugs. Being a person that only has hand woven persian rugs I thought that was actually pretty funny. Then it had me thinking can most people tell the difference? If so how do you tell the difference? Do you think maybe I’m the foolish one for investing so much in rugs when apparently the home depot ones are suppost to be just as good?
