I would appreciate if you guys can point me in the right direction in terms of the answer to the thead title's question. From another forum I frequent I learned that Overstock is one good site. But they have slim pickings on a lot of their items, which are either out of stock of the size or color I want. What are all the other reputable places to buy that kind of stuff online? Do you know of any reputable eBAY sellers? I don't think I'd want to blind buy this kind of stuff of eBAY since when I used Toolhaus on the first eBAY seller I was considering buying this stuff from, I saw that a lot of people claim he lies about the thread counts of his items, and his products are scratchy, etc. Also, the seller responds to negative feedback about his sheets by saying they are Egyptian cotton so they don't become soft enough until after they are washed several times. Is that a bogus claim? This message was modified Apr 16, 2010 by confusedbedbuyer

I was looking at your site earlier today budgy and those St. Geneve Aragon fire and water thingies both look totally amazing. Are those comforters, or duvet covers? I wish I was rich enough to afford those. I already went way out of my normal league with the amount of money I spent on my bed; the only reason I even had that extra money in the first place was due to a one-time special achievement. It must be nice to have a lot of money to buy the good things in life like amazing beds and amazing bedding to go along with it. Hopefully I'll get there one day. LOL btw budgy, my small way of helping you out in return for all the great advice you've given me on this board is to point out that there is a typo on your webpage here: http://www.tmasc.ca/cottonjacquards/AragonSetWater.html and here: http://www.tmasc.ca/cottonjacquards/AragonSetFire.html Namely, "370 Thread Gount Giza Egyptian Cotton - Made in Italy" This message was modified Apr 16, 2010 by confusedbedbuyer

Fixed now ;o Thanks for catching that for me. Yeah, the Water pattern in particular looks ridiculous, my parents actually have that one....I have yet to do any bedding on this caliber just yet, but maybe this year. Those prices are actually just for the covers, and then any duvet can be used for the inside. |

I wait for JCPenney sales and then I go into the store to feel the sheets since I learned that what is important is the thread count be at least 300, but preferably at least 400 thread count and the 100% cotton be soft. After 400 thread count, what determines softness is the cotton used and the type of processing so sometimes the 450 thread count is softer than the 600 thread count sheets.

| JCPenney is having a sale now for free shipping with $49 of total purchases. They have 400 count sheets on sale with good reviews. I am tempted to buy another set. |
| Amazon for me. |
I am reluctant to use Amazon because they do not allow me the option to choose USPS as my shipping agent, and if they ship me things via courier, I'm gonna get charged illegitimate brokerage and other charges that I would not be charged if USPS was used instead.
