Rugs.com has infinity shag. Decent price and a great pile. Usually $230 for an 8'x12' rug. Higher end carpet stores will sell solid shag but prepare for $9-$14 a square foot.

This is definitely an item that will take some time to find the right color and pile. I have found some vendors in Georgia that may be able to assist. I will share their contact info if they prove to be a good source. Thanks again.

They will always have some random ass rolls of carpet or large crazy Rugs. I know the Ollies i have been to always have a bunch of LARGE DEEP SHAG rugs. they are big enough to trim and use as carpet.

A bit pricey, but worth it IMO. They are a USA made company, small business, and their customer service rocks. I mentioned them in another thread here --> LINK | | |
