I was walking around Manhattan with a friend. He is a carpet salesman's son. And he was telling me about why his father's carpets cost so much: the amount of time they take to produce, the materials that are used, the history that goes into their design. He was talking about a customer who did not wish to pay over 1000 Dollars for a carpet that was worth much more. He explained to me why oriental carpets are not like just any other carpets you put in your house.
I finally understood that oriental carpets are works of art. Their value most often increases as they get older and are a great investment for that reason.
Since then, I love oriental carpets. I have gathered quite a collection in the mean time and it is all thanks to my understanding of what kind of work really goes into oriental carpets.

Hello,
I'm writing a story about oriental carpets and want to interview a few people on what makes the carpet salesperson and the carpet sale a different experience, especially where I am, in Canada.
Would you or perhaps the carpet salesperson you mentioned be interested in commenting for my story?
