    One carpet costs over $12000 cause William Sonoma keeps $11500 in profits.

      True,, the profits are in USA people, you all actually can order directly hopefully someone should use web and internet shopping, We boast of tons of IT people but not used in India, they go out to do copy & paste stuff. Sad they can open co-operative society that people can directly buy.
