At this wolves, wolverine, possums. The odd ball stuff. Plus anything that doesn't sell in the auction room.
At the May sale, you will see wolves, wolverine and some of the odd items sold in the room.
To be quite honest, I'm surprised they are offering wolves and wolverine private treaty. They is usually quite a bit of competition. Kind of losing the benefit of an Auction "competitive bidding". NAFA " North American Fur Agents"

I'm not so sure they go anywhere myself.??? Truth on many goods The wolf and wolverine trappers aren't getting fair representation IMO as mentioned there is usually good action on them in the auction room. To remove the auction room is weird. There are less valuable and less desirable goods that will go across the auction block

Well there are 196 wolves to be auctioned. And 82 wolverines. There are 80 wolverine show lots, so that means there are 2 lots with 2 In them. I can see It would be a real cluster to try and sell each wolf and wolverine on It's own.
When looking at the wolf lots It looks like there are a few lots with 2 and 3 and 4 In them. And It looks like 5 Is the biggest lot.
I can see If they were sold on the auction floor It would probably take for ever.
The guys that are there to buy this stuff have looked at It and know what they want. And I'm sure NAFA has placed a price on them. So you're agreeing that North American fur AUCTION should just be a brokerage firm?

I can broker my own fur. I can't collect a bunch of buyers around to bid the price UP.

It's a small sampling. How do you know the seller wouldn't do just as good at PT? We don't.
Well It looks like the guys that sent their wolves to NAFA didn't have there own brokerage firm to handle that for them. So, Since rats have had very little interest in the auction room as of late should nafa just PT them? I mean, we know they have been but should they just PT?

There are no 1 rat lots.

Traditionally, NAFA has always sold wolves and wolverine in very small or individual lots. At least as far back as 1984.
Wolves and wolverines have so many variables that it is almost impossible to lot them in bigger lots. And selling individually is the way the wolf and wolverine buyers want it.
At an ordinary NAFA sale, they sell the zoo animals on a separate day. They know the buyers will be in the room. I've been at NAFA wolf auctions that have taken 5 hours. One wolf at a time. And there are buyers in the room until the very end. You don't need a room full of buyers to have a successful auction. Some times the wolf auction with 5-6 bidders gets more action than a room full of "bidders" at a raccoon auction. Raccoon buyers are better at collusion. Don't let the Beav know.
