Had five beaver at $6.00 and three at $2.00. The truck was 3/4th's full of beaver plews and other fur. Rats were stacked in $4.00, $3.00, $2.00, $1.00 grade piles. Top raw beaver were 12 and down. Gary would not buy coyotes, mink, or coon. Gary bought castor from every one. Not sure what the price was....? $50.00/lb ? Hope everyone has a blessed Easter spent with their families and remember that Christ died to forgive our sins. Groeny Rocks !!! Last edited by walleyed; 04/17/22 07:32 PM.

My top grade beavers brought $35 at the last FHA sale. Also my castor brought $105/ lb, so even with FHA’s 25%shrinkage and commission, that’s still better than Groeny However, In the future I might try Groeny with my low grade damaged beaver.

WITHOUT seeing or know what kind of shape , size, damage, or condition the item was being sold was. Yea squash your items brought more than walleyed did from groeny but I bet others that sold at FHA brought less than walleyed got for his. PLUS you ever notice how prices on everything change from day to day ? Heck even Hour to hour . Don't have to look any farther than gas, stocks, or bitcoin to see examples.

Not exactly the same.

Are there any muskrats on the Juniata? I got myself a seniors' GPS. Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination, it tells me why I wanted to go there.

If you send to auction and get $5/beaver your SOL. besides around here, and for many, groeny is the closest buyer. FHA aint too far away, and I do sell fur there too, everyone else is far enough away id have more in fuel and time than Id make in fur.
