Didn't Denmark destroy all its mink that would be on the market now? That should help.

Not PT any good right after the sale is what he was telling the buyers to try and get them to buy as much as possible during the actual auction.

Selling goods PT months after the auction happens after every sale right up until they build new catalogues for the next auction happens.
Unfortunately the market sucks and the PT sales reflect that situation.

Closing off PT sales right after the live auction is strategy to get the buyers to buy.
Selling PT sales between auctions is a normal practice.



Totally agree, however this statement of realism is grounds to launch an Offensive! Which would be ok if you made ur point and let it go.

I sincerely hope they recognize they made a mistake and work to correct this practice. As usual the timing of the decision was.....(it’s Murphy’s law in hindsight on a decision made with foggy foresight).

Being the last remaining international fur auction they have a big responsibility towards transparency.

I would really like to become one of there clients but this cloud causes hesitation.

What are you waiting for? Afraid your opinion may line up with mine when it happens to you? If I were you I would sell in the country. No reason to risk it. It is a rich statement though.....

If fha had told trappers how cheap they sold their fur for in December,how many would have been motivated to ship fur in Janurary?

That December money was a Christmas present. Had nothing to do with what you sold PT.

I got a small percentage of my "Christmas money" in late January with a note attached saying they wanted to get some money in my hands for Christmas. I guess it was for 2021 Christmas. LLL

Nimzy is waiting for the market to improve enough to sell, it will most likely take a successful international auction to push rats to an acceptable level.

More. Wasn’t the motivation this year about solely to move goods? Saw lots of material moving real cheap on YouTube. Everyone appeared content, some overjoyed.

Any buyers out there attending this on-line event? If so is there any articles of interest that you can see on Day 1? In a perfect world it would be nice to follow the catalogue and be able to watch it ourselves, but I think I'd have better luck trying to clone a dinosaur at this point.

Thanks for the update wissmiss. Feel free anytime to update us, I certainly won't mind. : )

I have over 500 muskrats, 200 coon, and variety of other odds and ends so it's good to hear any information.

Do you know, did FHA have starting limits on articles or is it a straight open bidding process?

Thanks
