Whew. For 23.00 apiece it’s tough to fuel up the truck and let em ride. 30-40 put up does nothing for me. Smelly buggars. Good on you for the catching part Law...

The next batch will get tanned I'm having stuff tanned and giving it to friends for wall hangings. Surprised how many people want tanned fur for display.

I would have burnt them instead of giving them away to someone else to make money on.

Approx. $15.00 more for put up. I like putting up fur. To me the extra money seems to make the difference here. I understand you are used to getting more. Compared to what you got last year you were probably violated. Wish our NY yotes were worth half of what yours are. Now I'm wondering what I'll get.

Last year about everyone of them had lice (weak necks) this year they all looked fully furred so it’s a kick in the head 2 years in a row.

Use to buy fur in the 80’s. Heated the building with a big old wood burner. When the market crashed, had a lot of “ ill burn them before I sell them for that!” So I would always grab a couple pelts and throw them in the wood burner. The seller would about have a heart attack. Probably lost some customers, but I never liked being accused of cheating someone. Fur buyers don’t get rich, if they did everyone would be doing it I would have burnt them instead of giving them away to someone else to make money on.

You wont be accused of cheating anyone unless you are cheating them. A transaction takes two to tango. If you accept an offer,even if low, you agreed to whatever you got. Other people may have the opinion that you got cheated,shorted,whatever you want to call it. I know loyal shippers to FHA that would sooner burn their fur than sell elsewhere for any price.
