What was the cost before shipping on a dozen?
Found them $299.
I don’t get it. They’re more money? I paid just over $400 CAD for a dozen Belisles from the FHA warehouse in Winnipeg. The new Belisles come with the anchor cable which I cut off right away.

Again, this is not Canada. We don’t get your Belisles for that price down here.

A dozen Belisles costs $380 USD down here or $550 Canada pesos

A dozen Duke supermags costs right under $300 usd delivered


Gotta live up to the nickname...

So not everything's cheaper there?...lol.
That's a huge price difference. I'd hate to see what a Savageue goes for!

The snare shop is the only place I have seen them Savageues at they show the 12f at $46 each but out of stock. Dukes are a bargain.

Good looking trap. Id probably try a few if Belisle and sav ever go out of business. Duke are made in Korea though. I thought more of youse wouldve wanted to buy Made in USA products.

You should do a little research...maybe include an Asian nation in the search...

Ryan, the Bridger traps were made in Taiwan when we bought the company in 2010 and they are still made there today. Made by the same family and in the same facilities as Northwoods traps were made back in the 1980's.

Thanks Tim! Google is pretty crazy. Depending on how you word the question, it’ll say Bridgers made in the US, tweak it a bit and it changes to Taiwan.

I thought so, thanks for the clarification. They're a good trap, I've got a bunch of them.

MJM-how is Canada hosing you on Belisle traps? I don't get where you came up with that at all. They charge the same price per dozen for either vendor-Canadian or American-what a dumb comment. It's maybe a tariff that the U.S.A. has on goods made abroad? If Belisle 330's are $400 / dozen Canadian-thats about what U.S.A. money? Say they cost vendors $280 canadian/dozen-that's about $ 200 U.S.A money.If the trap supply companies order 50 dozen and send them by truck-say it adds even $20 dozen-HOW IS CANADA HOSING YOU? the vendors have to make something as well

Unreal

I bought my first Belisle 330's somewhere around 2001...from Cumberlands. Paid $180 a dozen.

I have a big pile of them and I think the most I paid was $240. I'm glad I invested in them when I did.

I have to admit, if I needed more, I'd probably have to give the Dukes a try simply because of the price.

In my opinion the 330 dukes are over powered.

I'll have ot get my hands on one so I'll withhold judgement but I was hoping they wouldn't put their spring on the super magnum. 80 dollars a dozen difference isn't a deal breaker for me if I believe one is better than the other.

Most likely I'll spend the extra 80 dollars or go with the Bridgers. In my opinion they are superior to the dukes.
