South Indian saree shops often carry cotton, silk blends and fancy sarees from several weaving centres. Ask where each saree comes from, since quality and price change with the source.
For cotton cloth, check the count, finish and colour fastness. Ask if the shop can arrange transport to your city, and who pays the freight.
