Yeah she called me and started off saying "sweeite don't be made but". Thought O Lord crazy but nah she told me she wanted to clean out the deep freezer and saw I had a few coon in it I caught in like November, just dinking around and remembered I told her I didn't really care what she did with them . Well apparently she had met a lady at some oddities convention she went to last year ( one of them deals where people be selling taxidermied rats in dresses or feral pigs in jars and stuff) . Anyhow she said she got in tough with her told her she had four frozen racoons if she wanted them and the lady didn't even haggle and offered her $150 for the bunch . Apparently she was really happy with them being trapped and frozen .

How many more does the lady want?

You may have just gotten the best coon average in North America this year! Congrats

grin that's the first thing I asked and she said it would probably be a few months if she ever needed anymore. Apparently she usually just picked up road kill but the fur is usually slipping by then and the skulls are usually damaged really bad .

Most of these type of folks I've sold to are usually really small batch deals and kinda inconsistent. To be honest with the price of some of the crafter i see people make with animal, mainly the non- traditional side of things , she really got a steal lol. She could easily make like $300 a pop off of each one of those animals

Good deal!

Any chance the lady thinks the coons are skinned for mounting?
