Ok
So i have some 7ft rugs to sell (Omars old ones). I have had them cleaned etc and they are now ready to go.
How do i photograph them? I can put them on hovis and take piccies but they don't fit - otherwise i wouldn't be selling them!
So do i put them on the floor and take pictures? Drape them over something?
I've never sold rugs before and never sold anything on ebay
Help!

Best way would be to do some research and see what sort of photos of rugs similar to yours have helped to get the highest prices

However, if it were me I'd be inclined to hang rugs over a gate and take photos from each side.

I either put them over the back of the sofa or take a pic on the floor. Generally I pull the middle towards the front making them a bit shorter, but still showing the chest straps.

Buying rugs - it's like Christmas!!

They are normally laid over stable gates so you can see the whole of one side of the rug.

That's how I've always done them. And on a beautiful day like to day, that would be perfect.
