One lone skunk but really nice one.
$21.05 USPS. I hope he likes it!

I’ve not had a skunk call in the last couple month I head out of town and get a call the next day just my luck!

He'll wait for you to get back.

He said it’s a big one and calm I said cover it up then slip it some food and water until I get back will see what happens,

What condition was the skunk in? On the carcass, skinned/frozen, dressed or something else? Will be interested in knowing what you get for it.

If it was stretched and dried, you got hosed on shipping.

It was a very dead roadkill from last winter
Stretched and dried out flat.

I did get hosed but it is USPS. It didn't weigh 8 oz.

On any other site the title of this thread would be the opening of a nasty prank.

Next time don’t tell usps what’s in the package and maybe the price will be better.

I wish we had more skunks around here.

Everyone needs to learn how to use pirate ship.It does require a scale,computer and printer.

GFW's offer is going to depend on the quality of the tail. If it is nice and mostly white, you will do OK. If I remember correctly, their top price for stretched and dried is $45. If the tail is mostly black, you will not get enough to cover shipping.

Like the Mad Scientist said, Pirate Ship is the way to minimize the cost of shipping.

Get a USPS flat rate padded envelope. Fold it one time, it will easily fit. Sounds like you used a box.

I did use a box

The pelt

I just saw Dusty Hough pay $60 for on in Carrington at the NDFTA convention a week ago. Groney rocks.

Being a winter skunk I’ll bet you’ll get more than your shipping costs back…lol. GFW here said not to send in summer skunks. Dave B said they’re going to be putting out another video in the next couple weeks on exactly what they’re looking for. I got a few summers that I want to see what they get at the March auction.

Name three things I don't have

took 3 to gary at the nys trappers convention nothing great 50.00 each

Never, NEVER thought I would see the day a skunk brings more than an otter.

Strange days for sure.

Sounds like a great price to me. Were these summer skunks or last years during season?

In the other thread, someone else said they got $40ish a piece in NY but they were late October skunks.

There, fixed it for you.. lol

Truth

You got hosed because all you had to do was cut the tail off and sent that Probably would have fit in a flat rate envelope
