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! Grinners For Life-Lifetime Member, MO Chapter, Den #1 ~You Grin, You're In~

Country Buyer. In my new place I am just not going to be able to get set up to put up fur this year. I have the space but just don't have the cash to restart up on all of it. Plus I can just concentrate on the trapping that's really what i like. I don't really enjoy putting up fur too much. 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?

And his checks won't bounce! Mostly, because they are so small.

And his checks won't bounce! Mostly, because they are so small. 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.

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.
