Name the most you'd pay. We bid for you, just enough to stay in front, like eBay. Nobody sees your max, not even Captain Nemo.

How the bidding works (the short version of the Articles)
  • The first bid starts a 13-day clock. When it hits zero, the top bidder wins.
  • Enter your max. The price only climbs as far as needed to keep you in front, so you may win for less.
  • Each bid has to beat the price by a small step. Ties go to whoever bid first.
  • Some pieces carry a reserve, a minimum price kept secret. If bidding ends below it, the piece doesn't sell. The box tells you if it's met.
  • A bid in the last 5 minutes resets the clock to 5 minutes. No sniping.
  • Win, and we email a pay link. You have 3 days to pay. Free pickup at the South Loop dock (recommended). Smaller pieces can ship, quoted before you pay.
  • A bid is a promise to buy. Please bid only if you mean it.

Taking a squint at it...

Description

A room-size rug in the Oriental style, with a big stepped medallion in the middle and a wide border of flowers and curling leaves. The ground is soft grey and ivory, and the pattern is picked out in hot pink, magenta, navy and teal with a little orange.

The label on the back reads Nourison, Passion Collection, PSN20 LGYPK, 8 ft × 10 ft (2.40 m × 3.05 m), 100% polypropylene, made in Turkey. So it is a modern rug and not an antique, and it will put up with a good deal more traffic than one.

It was photographed laid out flat. The edges ripple a little from being rolled. It is a big roll to carry, so this one is dock pickup in the South Loop only, and bring a friend.
