Fortunately, I live in an area where I still have options. That makes a difference. Local buyer will get my beaver and most likely my castor. Coyotes, foxes, and coons at the state association auction. Some on the taxidermy market. I'll be watching to see what Groeny is paying on rats and coons this season. Sold my rats to him last season, and think he did me right.


I trap for fun. I skin 'em for the money!

Greenwood. The stop is only 10 miles from me. It's usually mid day, so I just take an early lunch hour and eat on the way there.

Do you have many options for country buyers that buy carcass or green goods? Last time I looked, the buyer options in the State of Washington was rather limited. Just curious.

The last two seasons I sold to furriers. The first one was referred to me by my taxidermist who I also sell furs to. The second approached me about purchasing my furs after seeing my “End of the Line” photo.

I am really hoping to go this route again this season.


Eh...wot?

I have been happy with the amounts so far. Two years ago guys where talking about their rat average from NAFA which at first glance were higher than mine from groeny until you took out NAFA's fees and then their average and mine where within 10-20 cents of each other. And I didnt have to wait for years for all my fur to sell. This is just my opinion your mileage may vary.

Bottom line is if your happy with what your buyer pays then that is all that matters.

Been better places to sell rats than NAFA the past few years. I think a lot of guys just put whatever in the bag and throw it on the truck to NAFA mainly because it was convenient for them. I have found other buyers to ship to or drive aways and sell some fur. Different furs go different places selling 100% , no buy backs or PT sales, and no bounced checks. If a guy is willing to check around there are plenty of places to sell to that will match or do better than what you get at auction.

Groney did me good on rats with a $4.90 cent average. But he sucked on the coyotes I had.
I won't trap coon until some time In Nov and I won't be skinning anything less then a 3x. I have a control job to catch some rats and I know I'm going to get a $10.00 nose count.
But I will send some fur to NAFA.

We don't have local association sales anymore so NAFA and GFW figure into the mix. Much will be determined by the size of the harvest for me.
