I ran this through the google translator and cleaned it up a bit. Gfw has not had Facebook videos about skin prices in a short time, I wonder if something in recent weeks has changed markets from bad to worse. It is difficult to know if there is something new with the auctions this next season, I do not know if it advances in wild skins, is it ok? It is still a little early to say?

Your translator sucks. Groenwald Fur & Wool has not had any Facebook videos on fur prices in a little while. I wonder if anything has changed in recent weeks in the wild fur market.? Still not good, or worse? It's hard to tell if anything is new with the auctions for this upcoming season. I have not heard if NAFA will give advances on wild fur. Anyone know? It may be a little early yet to say??? Dave I haven't heard anything positive on the fur markets to change anything we were told weeks ago. NAFA is definitely in some financial struggles. If you were wise, you'd look into other options soon before you're stuck counting on loans on your fur from them.

Just heard Nafa’s bouncing August sale checks, guessing advances might be out of the question

Yup. As usual I will make the 5 mile drive to meet Groney's truck. Those checks don't bounce.

I've been hearing about NAFA bouncing checks for a while. Does anyone have personal experience with this, has it happened to anyone here or is it just a rumor?
Eh...wot?

Dave it is my opinion that getting an advance on any fur is a mistake. Why not just go to the bank and get a loan and pay it back after you sell your fur to GFW? Scary. LLL

I'm taking my NAFA check in this morning. We'll find out soon enough if its good.
I ended up with all my coon gone through NAFA. They included 3 different NAFA coon regions. I broke them down into 2 size groupings, maybe I should follow Muskrat's advice and break them into 3, having 2xl by themselves. Average price is before 9% commission.
3xl- 5xl (only had 1 5xl): $14.27 2xl and smaller (including 1 Lge, first time one of those has gone in a long time): $6.60 Total ave before commission, just under $12
Need to scout out boo coo full wetlands for mrats in October for Nov opener. Haven't done that for a while. Need to find some decent waders and see if a semi-old, semi-fat man can still walk the muck without falling over (much).
