It appears that quality winter caught beaver have experienced an uptick in price. Not so much with fall and most spring caught beaver. Same old story, quality sells.

I did similarly as well on the few beaver I had on this auction. I wish I'd had 100 of them on there.

My average is up almost $2/pelt from a year ago. Very similar lot this year. Anyone have an idea as to why the RR are doing better than many of the regular furs?? I was always told they take a hit on price.

I had some leftover junk in this sale and had pretty good clearances. I averaged 1.43 on 8 coon and 3.00 on 3 red fox. Still have a few Coyotes that didn't sell.

I did very well at this sale. a beaver @52 and one @51 coyotes went 3 @ 125, 1 @ 105 and 2 @ 100 and a cat @ 230. Out of 14 coyote sold 12 for a average of $73 and only 1 cat sold out of 6. but all 16 beavers sold for a average of $20. That's all US dollars

Worse than 2014. If it was pale, no sale.

Agree and also interesting about the $4100 top on bobcat someone is quoting on another thread. If that is the case then I am guessing an all time, all sales, all auctions best bobcat price. Important question though is what about averages on bobcat i.e. have those come up too? Regardless if confirmed the $4100 is a great day for a fortunate few.

That price of $4100 can be found on FHA website, on top of page go to buyers, sold catalog, May 2018 and scroll to page 267 I think it was on.?
