am I being to anxious or what?

I sent some good fur up for the may sale. haven't seen it received.

what I sent was hand picked in each species so I can actually tell how put up and fur quality is actually graded

Wait till the auction starts to be concerned. Until then, things come up in drips.

Inspection starts on May 10. Catalogs and grades should be posted by then. Less than a week. Hang in there!!

If you check your account on line, it should show that your pelts were received. IF they don't show, it may be they arrived too late for the May sale.

My agent did a pickup 6 weeks ago. Still not showing on the account so I called him yesterday. He did not get it up there in time for this auction so it will be July. Not real thrilled about that.

pass-thru - I would be less than thrilled to have my fur on the July sale when I thought it was going to be on the May sale. Big difference in those 2 sales.

Did the agent tell you it would be on the May sale? Usually their pickup routes are planned to get the fur on the next sale.

In pretty sure mine didn't make it either that could be why my account isn't showing anything either.

Been a few stories passed around of agents switching fur before it gets to WI. I think some of them are the result of the trapper not being able to put up/grade fur. Sounds a bit shady to me that fur would not get to the sale on time.

6 weeks ago is well past the LRD for the may sale.

My stuff was picked up here in Texas five days after the last receiving date. They showed up in time for the May sale. Last year mine went on the July sale though.

Not sure which route you were on but I know the Southern VA and north eastern NC routes were well after the LRDs for the May sale. My stuff will be on the July sale just like it was last year. Just the nature of the beast in the south unless you want to pay to ship it direct.

I was told mine would be in the May sale also, when I dropped it off. There is still no count that shows in my account . I called the depot guy and talk to him and he told me the Nafa had sent a truck a week after the pickup was and that everything went to be in the May sale . But when I call nafa and talk to them they tell me the July sale. I know the nafa guy told our pickup guy that he would send a truck to make sure it got on there . I thinking it will show up in my account in a few days hopefully.

Mine has been recieved and drummed. But not graded, I would expect to see lotting letters after the 14th. Mine better be in the May sale.

Have you called them???? You have your receipt when they picked them up, I'm sure they could answer all your questions instead of all the speculation that everyone is doing here.
Just call them!

No worries here. All I have is a dozen 3XL-XXL *1 left over from the March auction.

I gave my fur to the agent here in MS on Feb. 24. The fur showed received on March 23. My "skin count" is showing online and looks like ill be in the May auction. Not that it matters though I'm sure my southern scab yellow leg coon will be bought for a dollar in May or July either way.

I love the suspense. I have only been sending fur for 5 years but have always had all my fur go through no problem. If you want to control how or when your fur sells you have to take it somewhere and deal with it yourself and I venture to guess you will do no better than just sending it in go NAFA and relax til you get your money.


Wish I had more time to trap....
