Where to buy high quality, reasonably-priced bed sheets?

I now live in the Czech Republic. Here in Europe, the bed sizes are different than in the U.S. For example, my ';king size'; bed has a 180 x 200 cm mattress (70 x78 inches)





The bed sheets (fitted sheets and top sheets) are ridiculously expensive, especially considering what miserable quality they are. Is there any place that sells the size of bed sheets (and maybe also blankets) that I need?





Keep in mind that European beds are much, much lower to the ground than U.S. beds. There is no box spring, but rather a thin, flat, wooden support under the mattress. The mattress itself is not as thick as most American-style mattresses either. Hence, if I found a very stretchy Queen size, the fitted sheet would almost (but probably not quite) fit. A queen top sheet would probably be big enough, since the bed is only a couple inches off the floor.Where to buy high quality, reasonably-priced bed sheets?
well i like domestications.com i dunno how things work with ordering online from other countries but ive bought sheets there a few times i wouldnt suggest the ';sleepy tees'; tho because they shrink like crazy but they have sales and stuff and i think their prices are ok but i dotn know what ur prices are..... but give it a lookWhere to buy high quality, reasonably-priced bed sheets?
I looked around online, found one place that was very expensive.


It looks like the closest size for you would be the eastern king. I don't know if you sew. It might just work. Try to get one that's not deep pocket since you have a platform bed. Do go look at the sizes, I googled it and put in the 70 x 78 to see what came up. You also may be able to just buy a flat sheet and cut and add the elastic to fit your bed. Just remember the higher the thread count is usually better sheets
