Not really defending FHA but how would those that shipped felt If they would have not sold any of your fur?

I think FHA is doing a great job for us that depend on them,under the current circumstances. You guys have the option to sell local without even putting your fur up. One thing about the auction,even in poor markets,good fur sells. In a poor market it doesnt make sense to ship lesser grade pelts to an international auction.If you trap when pelts are prime,target species that has some demand,know how to do a top job putting up your fur,and find alternative markets for the odd lesser pelt in your collection,You can still make a fair wage for doing something you like to do.

That doesnt make sense-a lot of fur sold at PT is because there were no acceptable bids in the auction room in order to hold the value on the subsequent lots.

Finally a comment from experience and smarts. Some people would be better off prepping equipment for the coming season. If you don’t like the market sell me your stuff on the cheap! This is laughable. Yep she is the only one with any experience. Do you know how funny that is? I too have experience. Bad experience with the PT room. She is a buyer. Not a seller. As I said before you all should enjoy it while you can. They are a turd circling the bowl. Just a matter of time before there will be no ignorant trappers left to ship them fur. Have fun because I have had all the fun with them I am willing to spend. As for getting equipment ready, it has been since 2020 when I shipped these last furs. I will never again trap an animal for trinkets and beads. LLL

I agree with boco if you trap and ship junk to the auction house you can expect to receive a small amount in return. Logging is no different quality over kwality. . Junk? Good fur you will receive a very small amount. What planet you guys living on. Not necessarily FHA fault but good grief for most situations and trappers there is no fur market.

You actually said something that made sense. The buyers give no acceptable bids on the auction room floor. They meet up later in the treat room where they somehow make a bid that is lower but acceptable. would you mind explaining on which planet that makes even a bit of sense? Again another laughable comment. LLL
