Shipped very fast - even came a day early!  The rug still has a couple of wrinkles from shipping that I hope will come out soon - it's been a week so far.  The rug is pretty - I like it.  I wish there had been a picture of the runner as the pattern falls slightly differently, but now there is mine.  :)  I think I would like it more if I hadn't paid so much for it - I had seen it originally at a much lower price, but by the time I went to order, it had gone up.  Lesson learned for me.  :)
