No it's not because there was more profit tacked on top plus sale fees. If you know what the out the door price is to the main buyer please enlighten us.

Depends on who did the tanning. Also depends how sensitive the nose is of who is doing the smelling. Some folks have a nose connected to their eyes - they see a skunk and automatically smell skunk! LOL

Lee, you had better get out and BUY some specialized skunk cubbies, cages and traps to PROTECT your grapes as allowed by IRS.
I know those stinky suckers can wreak havoc on wild grapes.

Far be it from a fur buyer to bend the truth now and again.

Do you think they are going to admit to it and then advertise they are buying tanned skunks at $60 tops. Which by the way is below the current market value.

It's a very select market so you have to be careful what you say and do. Maybe they did not buy directly themselves but used a broker. That way they could say they were not involved. Like I said before they have been in the skunk market for a bit. The reason for the upward price change is because of competition.

That's why I've never been a buyer. Too big a mouth.

I'm thinking about putting an ad in Craigslist to buy road hit skunks. Don't that sound like fun?

Best skunk set I’ve found is a brand new trap, your best constructed time consuming set and an expensive lure. Seems they find it before anything else every single time. lol.
