I dunno. Out where I am we don't have any hatter buyers per se. My hatter quality stuff at the OTC sales was getting offers of $6-$7 per beaver (about $3/lb) last couple years. But to ship beaver back east isn't a viable option with shipping costs. So I sent -em off to FHA....and averaged just under $8
When the Chinese were in the market (pulling some funny business I heard later) I was getting $23-$24 for XXL DMG That sure helped the overall average!

And of course when the Tibetans needed otters for their prayer robes they didn't care if they were singed. They was gonna singe anyway when they were warming their hands next to the fire.

I hear all the time...trapping isn't about the money, it's about being free, it's about our heritage, it's about the romance of being outdoors.
After reading through this thread...it's all about the money. LOL I'm gonna trap some spring beaver anyway, but if'n they bring a little more I'm good with that!

Sounds like an improvement on price. Castor down 30-35%, fur up 25%. One heck of a win!

I love the smell of a frank business discussion in the morning.

That looks purty poor for beaver. Should we blame the Russians?
