Where best to get...

...rugs(persian, afghan, local)? Not looking for anything out of the ordinary, but don't want to get ripped off at some mall if at all possible - is there any local area/place/shop that people can recommend? Don't mind spending a bit on something that is good quality (although I have no idea what that means, so any pointers on price also appreciated!) as will look to take it with me when I eventually move on.

The "quality" of a carpet is measured in 'knots per square-inch.' The more knots, the higher the quality. And, of course, it's the material itself.
