Saw a job in Denver last week where the homeowner bought carpet from a big box store and it was cut 6 inches short on one edge

I was doing a stretch-in for a client in Arvada last Thursday and their neighbor asked me to look at a roll they picked up from a warehouse club. The pattern didn't line up and the roll was clearly mislabeled when I measured it out. Has anyone else run into homeowners buying their own material that ends up being the wrong size?

And the warehouse club probably charged extra for the "custom cut" too, right?

Oh great, so now we're playing russian roulette with carpet rolls too?

I just think the prep work is pretty straightforward if you take your time with it.
