that's a good point JP. Maybe the question is why it was so difficult to get a Select grade with NAFA? Could be the difference between a trapper-centric vs other-centric auction house?


you can vote your way into socialism, but you will have to shoot your way out.

Seems to be typical of online auctions- plenty of time to play wait and see....

I always found it the opposite.Select is the top grade at FHA.Select was not the top grade at NAFA.NAFA's top grade was Super Select.

Basically same grades but different terminology.

NAFA changed their terminology a few times.FHA did once.

Back in the day the top grade at FHA was I pt II.


Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

My experience with both auction houses was that it depended on species. Beaver (for me) anyways have done better at FHA for grades and price. Otter it seems too. Red fox do terribly for me at FHA to the point I’m better off selling privately. But greys do well.

Live and learn and learn as ya go.

I think FHA has tended to grade beaver harder than Nafa over they years which helped boost their beaver marketing as buyer confidence grew.


My fear of moving stairs is escalating!
