I have several ounces of skunk essence. If any of you have sold some recently, please let me know the going rate. I can be reached at trapperlance@gmail.com if any of you are interested in buying some.


57 years trapping. It's who I am. Every day is still as exciting as it was when I was a kid but a little more work.

I wouldn't mind knowing current price either. I haven't sold any for several years now. I did just put some older stuff out on a couple bear baits. I also did the unthinkable and trashed some old stock.

$20oz would not sell it for less.

If trapping is down then the skunk catch will be down is the way I see it, supply and demand less will be needed sure but less will be out there. I’ve been selling it for $20 steady for years with no problem.

Selling it for less hurts the market I sell what I get to avoid quality issues of dealing with unknown collection or tampering problems.

Like Law Dog, my going rate for the past few years has been $20/oz plus shipping and haven't had any problems finding a buyer for it. Just shipped out 32oz.

I gave away two 5 ounce viles last year, they were free.

The rubber started to melt and stunk up my shed

The last I sold was $25 an ounce with the mustard in and they paid the shipping. They would take 100 ounces a year.

If any of you are willing to share your buyers name, I'd appreciate it. You could private message me. I totally understand if you don't want to give up that information.

Put it in the shed with a photo and go from there would be your best bet.

I've paid $20 an ounce for years. I'm full up right now.

I was paid $15 per ounce from a man in Alaska. I only had 6 ounces.

Sounds like a market that fills up pretty quickly. I will watch my expenses more and not spend the $15-$20 per ounce that stuff is suppposedly worth.
