I contacted 2 of our previous buyers today.
The one from Wisconsin quoted me. 75 a pound straight on castor and 7 a pound on beaver. ...as long as they're not all flat.
The one from Minnesota quoted me 85 a lb straight. Only 6 on beaver by the pound

I'll bet that a much better price on castor than was being paid in 1820, but the price for the skins is about the same.

Did they say that they had recently raised their prices? No they never said that. The guy from wisconsin did tell me early he was only buying local fur.
