The Wally and Bobo show.

comin to a chat room near you.

Lot letters are up

Would you rather have your fur sell for 70% of the pre-sale valuation, or sit at NAFA until next January? I've got a cat with a pre-sale valuation of $800 that has set up there since January This is its third offering. I'd be happy if they'd take 4 or 5 hundred for it and be done with it.

Yeah, 70% of pre-sale val would be ok on my last 6 coon, 1 w nc and the other 5 on the first page of w semi-heavy (maybe I'll get another top lot in that region as funny as that is for eastern SD). Good news is my grinners went up in pre-sale val from the May sale, 4.50 for a bigger one, 1.75 for the other 3. Maybe the tide is turning for possums

At this point you be doing good get them sold for that imo.
Hope the best for ya

Yeah, 70% may be too hopeful...

Will this sale have the Top Lots, like the earlier Sales ?

Is that better Dirt........................the sky has fallen in all the other fur. And when 75% of marten are unsold it hurts.

Probably not. I say that because they are not offering any "fresh" lots of wild fur. Everything being offered has been through at least one previous sale.

"Fresh" = goods that have never been through an auction.

I did good with NAFA always have.

Someone help me out. How do you find the pre sale value. I can’t seem to figure it out.

Wissmiss , you really busted my bubble. I thought I finally had a raccoon in top lot. Lol

Download your data. It will be an Excel file.

I not sure download data on presale evaluation works on a phone ? I have 17 coon, 9 rats, 14 mink an 28 possum on sale , a few 5 xl coon of off colors, an 2 of 2-3 color as well as a 4xl- 1 color, I believe not hvy nth an of NC coon, also few 3xl of off color, all sell or no.1 grade, I think all rats well sell an 50/50 chance any at all or all mink sell an some coon sell, they probly have them cleared out pt sale after auction but no check if sell pt later till next year's auction, rats or good rats didn't sell well in June

Items that sell PT right after the auction - within 2 weeks I think - will be paid for on the auction check.

Anything that sells after two weeks and before the middle of October should be paid for the end of October or first part of November.

NAFA's fiscal year ends the end of October and they normally clear the books by paying for everything that has sold.

Oh ya that's right, it also when top lot awards come out or possibly commision sharing profit rebate if any

I haven't seen a rebate in like 5 years.

When company's are making profits,there are usually not bankruptcy rumors floating around.

I guess I have not in 4-5 years either

I almost forgot the auction is tomma, any news on auction. Many buyers attending ?
