Hurry up and move Dave.

Carl, they have and will print so much money that the price of fur and other comodities will have no place to go but up.

the middle man (grooney or auction for example) can work harder for the producer or the end user who do you think they have been working the hardest for

The "middle man" is always working for themselves, not the producer or the end user. The advantage of an auction house commission is that there is incentive to sell at highest price possible, as opposed to a fur buyer who's profit margin improves by buying at lowest price possible.

Of course the disadvantage of an auction house is they have to move product to make any money, and some times the highest price possible is not satisfactory to the producer.

Of course, on the other hand the auction house needs to keep fur moving to stay in business...so there is that.

If this internet stuff finally becomes acceptable and works I can see it being advantageous to pushing prices.

Grade consistency will be key and obtainable IMO. Other than that what could possibly go wrong? Lol

Their vids on utube show the fur very well but not the leather.

If I'm buying fur and spending my hard earned money I want to see that fur up close and personal.

I would definitely want to look at fur in person if I was buying off a trapper.
I would buy graded fur from FHA over the phone.
If I called FHA and said I wanted 50 LM Hvy dk slt dmg beaver pelts I know exactly that is what I would get.

I'm going out in a few minutes to check traps-People can go to work same as always.Those rightwingnut sites sure know how to play people,lol.
Just dont need our hospital ICU's swamped during the new spike,and until we reach the 80% vaccine number that is a real possibility.
I support the lockdowns.

There you go again. You realize you are attacking half the US right. You are a government parrot. Lockdowns have not proven anything except it ruins economies and rises the suicide and addiction rates. LLL
