I am trying to figure out how an auction house, did a job on the coon market. Did they sell them to the highest bidder? They should have held out for more than market value?

Did I miss something didn’t NAFA just burn and destroy all those useless stale coon hides. Surely they didn’t let them go for .50- $3.00. Surely there aren’t millions of worthless coon dried and stored. I thought they were worthless why would you hold on to worthless fur?

I heard they ground up them greasy worthless coonhides and fed them to the ranch mink to fatten them up.

Back in around 2008 and 2012 they did not had there bottom price on coon and let it go for what ever they could get for them. When back in the late 1990's when they could not get there bottom price on the coon they pull them all and then had got the price they wanted. I know had fur up there then and they sent out a notice of what they did and why they did it . That is how they did in the coon market from between 2008 and 2012.For not have there bottom price then . How some forgot that.

Like I said they should have held out for above market value. The bottom line is demand drive the fur market. If there is little demand there is little market. I had coon up at NAFA at that time too. I can't remember a big crash. I do remember The May of 13 sale where I averaged more than I ever got for a coon.

My main concern is for FHA to be able to get buyers to come to N. America to buy wild fur. Before, the Chinese came for the ranch fur. Now there will be none. Time will tell I guess. LLL

I think this will all work out well for the wild fur market.

"Fur Harvesters Auction Inc. is pleased to announce that we have taken over NAFA`s former Western Canada
Wild Fur Operations building at 567 Henry Avenue, Winnipeg, Manitoba"

I hope this part means they leased it or got it real cheap in the NAFA PT room with all the NAFA's shippers fur.

Can a private individual have a trap supply company in Canada? Doesn't anyone sell traps up there?

If you look through the creditors own money in Manitoba @ about 56k is the unpaid leasee
If FHA did not get it GWF was circling the wagon as well as a few other fur buyers

the PT room was with those down east dingbats
