To many? Traps are like some other things. In my opinion you can NEVER have too many traps, too many guns, or too much money.

Buying traps is just as addicting as trapping!! I've got about 400, mixed brands and varieties. I bought 19 more this week. Went through most of my stash this past weekend and found about 2 dozen that I think I'm going to sell soon. I don't think I've ever sold a trap up to this point!!

Well I guess I have to many. A guy wanted to buy me out a couple years ago so I got everything out. He looked at all of it and never came back. Every tote I opened I'd say so you want to be a trapper huh. I told him he's going to need a bigger truck to haul it all, he just kept shaking his head.

Thoughts?

My first thought was " this guy needs a testesrone shot", what's next , the gun safe?

Last time I counted was a couple of years. Had 96 dozen, a mix of body grips, leg holds and dog proofs.

My problem is lure, I can't seem to stop buying it.

When the beer fridge turned into the Lure fridge I knew I had a problem. I got another fridge. Problem solved!

I am glad I am not the only person that this sickness. A friend has brought over many traps for me to sell for him. Most of them being collectors. Do you know how hard it is even to sell somebody else's traps? Very hard I just had to buy a couple.....so far.
