Common Retail Carpet Scams
In my ebook, I reveal the common and not-so-common carpet scams and how you can avoid becoming a victim of them. Here are some of the more common carpet scams...
Carpet Measuring Scams
There are dozens of ways that carpet retailers can take advantage of you. One common Carpet Scam is to OVER-MEASURE or to charge you for more MATERIAL than you actually need. This scam allows retailers to overcharge you by hundreds of dollars and is very easy for them to get away with it. How would you know if you are being over-measured?
Rolls of Carpet displayed on the showroom floor
Buying carpet off the showroom floor can be a costly mistake. When you see rolls and rolls of carpet displayed in a warehouse type of carpet retailer, those rolls of carpet may be defective or deemed "SECOND GRADE MATERIALS". In this case, you may be buying a carpet that has visible or invisible flaws or defects. Once installed in your home, those flaws or defects may become noticeable weeks or months later. You may not have any recourse if this happens and you may end up with a carpet that does not last as long as you had hoped.
There is no manufacturer warranty on "second grade carpet". You only get a manufacturer's warranty when you buy "FIRST GRADE" materials and place your order from a manufacturer's carpet sample. You can save money buying second-grade carpet if you know what to look out for. In my ebook, I explain to you exactly what you need to know to save the most money and protect yourself from carpet scams.
Buying carpet not suited to your needs or expectations.
It's not easy to select the right carpet that will MEET YOUR NEEDS, GOALS AND LIFESTYLE. If you rely on the advice of a carpet salesperson to make that choice, you may be making a huge financial mistake. There are many factors that determine what carpet will work best for you. I'll provide you with the knowledge you need to make informed choices.
