I have to be honest. I was so excited to be able to purchase these sheets "off-season" for what looks like an outstanding price. After receiving and washing them, I find them to be very average. Starting with the ecomony packaging and lower quality labeling. The seams did notwash straight and they seem to have "shrunk" around the stiching resulting in a "bunched up" hem around the pillow cases which would require ironing to flatten out. The thread cound looks lower than expected. I can easily see inconsistencies in the weave where light shows through more readily in some places than others. Honestly, I think the sale price is what they are worth, but don't think you are purchasing sheets worthy of an "average" retail of $100 plus.
