Exactly and the same can be said of most of the sales that have gone off this year. Hopefully FHA will show that there is growing depth to the market, but I have My doubts.

I guess I've always assumed a fur auction (even a state association auction) would have more fur than a small car could haul in/out of there.....in just the back seat.

It's good thing imo that there is not much fur this year.
Getting fur is not the problem ,,,,no sense imo giving it away.

The other issue is sales with low volumes of fur don't attract many buyers. Just the absence of one big buyer can really nick the trappers bad.


My fear of moving stairs is escalating!

You really think a $426 cat average is poor?

It can’t.

But than again, it doesn’t need to be.

We know what level the markets at.

Local fur sale results are the only tidbits of information to be had now that folks have quit posting about their Rat wagon experiences.

I don't have any muskrats here, but in late March I'll sure post my green beaver wagon results...
