Anyone on hear know why FHA has not listed a sold catalog after a month? Thoughts?

More important things to do. PT sales. Shipping sold goods. There are only 5 people working in the building - 2 in the warehouse and 3 in the office. Every one else is working from home. I’m sure the sold catalog will be posted before the last receiving date - June 4.

FHA Is still using the dial system on their phones and has a party line.

Breaking News

FHA's "State of the Art" COMMODORE 64 has contracted a virus !!!

As soon as the FHA Techies & Computer geeks get things figured out,

they will be sending official copies of the "Sold Catalog" to American Trappers
by Dog Sled Relay from North Bay, Ontario, Canada to Wisconsin for distribution.

Won't be long now !!!!!

I think your right.

Nancy, Are you still confident about this one?

Probably not.........

In all my years with FHA, I don't think I've seen a "sold catalog". I have seen the sale reports with general sale comments, like in the link below.

Not saying it doesn't exist, is this something NAFA used to do?

I have been receiving for them since 2003 and this the first time I've heard about a report like this.

There are plenty of Sold catalogs on the FHA site.

Heres an example......

They started posting sold catalogs in January of 2015. I think they were pressured into doing so by the fact that NAFA’s sold catalogs were posted on line.

On the FH web site, click on the buyers tab. They click on sold catalogs and the list pops up. Select the sale you want.

Well... I'll be..... I have never noticed them before. Learn something new everyday.

Not going to be much of a catalogue since not much sold.

Watch the youtube Trapper INC interview and you will see the challenges that they have faced that was published yesterday.

Then it shouldn't take long to load. I always wondered why FHA don't up grade their computer system. You know like NAFA had. Load it once during the sale and done.

I was hoping they had bridged that gap when they announced the joint auction at NAFA's facility with NAFA's system. Was hoping FHA would walk away owning the NAFA online auction system.

Not wanting to start a fight but in my opinion the difference between the NAFA computer system and the FH computer system is MONEY.

With all the commission money coming in from the sale of those nasty little ranch mink and the backing of the mink breeders association, the amount of money NAFA had to spend on technology is a bunch. Much more than FH had available.

I’m not sure it is practical for FH to take over the NAFA technology but it certainly could be in the discussion phase.

That will be up to the board of directors.
I am going to push my director to scrap all the computer garbage and go back to the old way-you find out what your fur sold for when you get your cheque in the mail.
Will save us a bunch of money too.

Thumb up boco on that idea.
But lets wait for Walleyed two bit opinion
and his 2 cents worth

Smoke and mirrors right Boco.
Don't let the non shipper that may be interested In shipping know what the fur Is selling for. Treat the non shipper like a mushroom.

Nope just old school.Straight up and honest.Ship your fur,get your cheque and grading slip,if you like it ship to the next sale,if not -dont.Never mind the malarky.
All the smoke and mirror bs was spawned out of the computer age.
