All NAFA wild fur catalogs just went up

Won’t be long now til gloom and doom folks!

Oops no catalog 5 yet. My bad

They have more than double the number of muskrats they were advertising.

The presale estimates are just a very rough estimate. Almost like drawing a number out of a hat, often times presale numbers are posted even before the last receiving date.

I’m not seeing anything in my account

I can't even get in to my account

Lotting letters not out, just the catalogs posted.

The central muskrat offering is very strange to me compared to easterns.

When is fha auction start

They are moving coon now.

The FHA auction started at 8 AM. Eastern time. That is 7 AM in Iowa.

They have been selling for 3 1/2 hours now.

NAFA lotting is up, at least mine is.

Pretty tough grade, but then, I always think that:)

I'm very happy with my grades this year, could always be better with all Top Lots. I have many * SEL's

All the North Dakota coyotes I sent dropped a grade from past years. I don't understand why as caught during same time of year and area. Hope the prices make it up.

In eagerly waitingfor the auction. I have not a single pelt up there but I am looking for any excuse I can find to go after otter for a week this upcoming season. I may just have to make up my mind to do it regardless of prices.

Go after the otter Shane they need killing Seems our local buyers are still paying pretty decent for them around here. Wish there was more international interest though.

Where do I find the sale catalogs?

You need a NAFA account to be able to access the catalogs. If you don't have an account with NAFA, call the Stoughton office and they will get you set up.

Real happy with my NAFA grades this year overall. I thought the muskrat grades were a little tighter than usual, though. My male mink all graded central, and my females all graded northern, go figure.

I sent what was probably my roughest mink collection..they graded mostly labeled lol.

I had fox that were previously unsold in the heavy catalog...musta shed..now theyre in the semi catalog lol.

I knew my coon were big for here this year and they graded accordingly. Size was terrific but I knew the color was poor for the most part. Spot on. Rats went mostly eastern this go around.

My lot letter is up, lot good grades on coon, mink, rats, most coon leftover from March were very best, sent some more coon in an mostly select, an no. 1, I hope pricrs up an sell, noone mention coon sales. How they did at fha today

My lotting letter is up but I forgot how to see estimated values.

Hit the download data button on the lotting letter

I post this more once an several times on fha thread, why noone talking on what coon brought an clearance at fha yesterday ? I curious as what brought an noone talking

They're all conspiring against you coonman, they don't want to tell you so they can keep you suffering.

I guy that I've meet through tman who lives about 30 miles west of here sent all (a good number) of his coon for the first auctions of NAFA and FHA. He did better (but not drastically) with NAFA than FHA. Reading between the lines now, with this silence on FHA coon, it probably wasn't as good as their winter sale. So, if I was you, I'd anticipate lower prices at NAFA this time around and be pleasantly surprised (with your mostly good grades) if the prices and clearances are the same or better than NAFA's end of Feb sale. We'll find out this Friday morning what's happening wit NAFA...

Coonman keep your toilet paper real handy come Friday or is coon on Saturday, know it's in the second catalogue, because there is going to be a lot of whipping going on and off.

I be very disappointed if 3xl to 4 an 5xl better color select an no1s, went real cheap , mostly what held back , noone talking of coon means to me that low clearance an low prices, possibly, I never sent to fha. Sometimes some species does ok fha. but nafa seems better. Nafas last sale was better than fha

"none" instead of "noone" or maybe that's King James early 1600s English version of that word.

Coonman, maybe we've entered a new world where color doesn't mean much if a lot of fashion world coon trim is dyed, although I heard that off colors don't take dye as well. If we're mostly selling coon fur to insulate the inside of mid-latitude Chinese coats during their wet winters, color probably doesn't matter much either, just sq centimeters. What was of the past may not be what the the present is...

Held my mink over for the last couple years in the freezer and I ran out of room cuz I stuffed the last Fox in from this season so I had to ship them, Very happy with my mink grades.
