I have done my research but I am still "iffy" about a few sites. I don't want to spend $100+ on bed sheets and then end up with a crappy product. I have looked at Linens & Things and Anippe.com but I'm not sure on the quality. Please help! Thanks!
Here are the ones I am looking at...

My advice to you is not to buy this type of item online. How would you know what you are getting if you can't touch and feel the item? Photographs can easily lie. The camera doesn't always see what the naked eye would see. This is why I rarely buy clothes and shoes online, unless it's standard sandals or something.
The quality of Linens and Things is pretty true to what they say, or if you buy from one the well established department store websites like Neiman Marcus, or Nordstrom etc.

i don't get it. why on earth would someone spend 50-100 bucks on bedding just because it's egyptian cotton instead of regular? isn't all bedding the same? please help insight a guy on this =D
No, it's not all the same.
Egyptian cotton (and other high-thread count bedding) are much, much softer and more luxurious than the lower-priced bedding available.
Has to do with the length of the fibers used in the weave of the cotton, but for practical purposes, the big difference is in the "feel" of the fabric.
Lots of people think it's totally worth it to blow big bucks on the pricier stuff, but I'm in the minority ... I actually PREFER the crisper, less soft feel of the cheaper ones!

You can get the quality and the desired fabric/down content of your bedding at a variety of places. A simple google search will provide you with dozens upon dozens of hits for the bedding you seek.
Now, to find it in a mid 1920's style may be challenging. In the mid 1920's bedding was not so much a decorative accessory as a necessity and therefore not much design went into duvet covers or the patterns of sheeting for bedding.
Try to find a solid color you like and then accessorize with decorative pillows and other period decor in your lighting, draperies and furniture. Or, you could find a seamstress to make you a duvet cover with decorative fabric on the top and sheeting on the bottom.
Try Overstock.com Cuddledown.com to start with for your search in bedding.

"MASCULINE typs" is the reason why i put it here. not trying to sound like a pig but women seem to notice blankets more than guys. a guy is a sheets, who cares witch 1s as long as they dont cost much and are comfertable, and a warm sleeping bag on top with pillows. but women put more attention into what they have on their beds. also i want to know what a woman thinks more than a guy

100% cotton means a hang of a lot of ironing. Stay away!!!!!! 100% wool can't be dried in a tumble drier.
I prefer easy iron or crease resistant. I do like a goose down duvet but make sure the fabric covering is thick enough to stop little feathers poking into you.
As for patterns and colours - have a look at the various shops and see what is on offer.
The Masculinist: well, I wouldn't want to be kept awake by little pricks all night long, now would you?
What's with the sateen? I live in FL, is that going to be warm? I don't need warm. Please advise of what is considered "good" when it comes to sheets for the bed. It has to be cotton though. Any experiences with egyptian cotton? I saw some other ones there that read egyptian cotton.
It has been said here, but the lower the count, the ROUGHER the material is. The count refers to the numbers of lines per inch as it is woven. A 200 count for a bedsheet would leave most people feeling like they were sleeping on course wool. I personally wait till they go on sale and get nothing less than 400. 800 to 1000 feels like silk and is much more expensive. Sateen is a reference to the look and feel and is a good thing to have.
