Sold some fur...
« on: January 18, 2014, 07:07:29 PM »
     I took a half dozen red fox to a local guy who buys them from me on the carcus - I don't skin em out!  I got $30 a piece.  I thot that was a fair price for not having them skinned, fleshed, and stretched.  Any opinions on the price I got?

P.S.  Coon were only bring $5- $10 - On the carcus of course.  He said coon prices were way down and many places weren't even taking coon.

Those are some good prices!!  Especially the coon
Every year I see posts about the prices being low from local buyers and then see the sent out prices.  Sent out prices are often way higher.

Maybe the buyer figures he can get more putting them up himself.  Its a sound strategy if you are a quick skinner and good at it.
