I was looking at Groenwald’s instructions for sending fur to them. For “fur in” it included grey fox. So, I wrote and asked if this was a mistake. Kathy Bickford from GfWCO wrote that it was not a mistake but they’ll accept them fur out also. I’ve only ever sold coon to them. Didn’t know they actually preferred grey fox fur in.

They believe they can see all they need on a grey fox from the leather.

Does NAFA have a similar recommendation?

Groenwald is the only major buyer that prefers grey fox fur in. If you know you are going to sell your grey fox to Groenwald, by all means, stretch them fur in. One less step in the drying process.

Both auction companies want them fur out. Fur in grey fox at NAFA are lotted separately and as a general rule bring less than money than fur out grey fox.
