Otis, I thought you had retired after the last time! Hard to get anyone to do anything for any club or organization anymore, eh?

I thought I did to Lee. But, whump, here I am.

Fur addict!

Colorado runs a good sale. They attract lots of buyers for lots of items. As Colorado cat said - if it has anything to do with wildlife and the fur trade and if it is legal to sell - most likely you will find it at the Colorado sale! !They run an open auction, not sealed bid like most western states.

They offer a reserve price option on your goods. 2% fee. Be sure to consider all aspects of what can happen if you are considering the reserve price option.

Good Luck to everyone selling and buying at that sale.

Thank you Wiss!!!!! Hope all is well.

Can a guy from MN show up?

I imagine they may allow it
Possibly

It is a good auction I have sent a lot of fur up there and it also supports their association.

is the Pope Catholic?

I'm beginning to wonder

^^^^^^^^
Isn't that the truth.
He's acting more like some mealy-mouth Unitarian. "All paths lead to the same place of happy unicorns and rainbows, blah, blah bah".

Sorry Odie, didn't mean to take the thread off track.

I'm going to check my schedule, I need to go to KS sometime this winter could just as well kill two birds one stone

Just a short hop from my place Stephen. I could keep ya company, but you’d have to drop me off after or mail me home! lol. Like about seven hours, give or take!

Id love to see ya both.

And no fur buyers license required in Colorado! Just a letter of credit from your bank. That's also why we get so many craft and smaller buyers, I think about 55-60 registered buyers show up.

Letter of credit not required if you are paying with cash or certified funds.

TTT

I've been threating to show up myself it would be a blast just go have fun help out if they need it. If I ever get over this crud I got.

Help is always appreciated. Food is wonderful and plentiful along with drinks. Stories are great and always something weird or unusual to see. hippo feet were brought one year along with an elephant tale.

Yup. You see all sorts of stuff at the Colorado sale. The year I went, 1998, they had a giraffe skinned for life size. It was salted and dried in a bundle, so it was difficult to tell what you were buying. LOL

They appreciate all the help they can get. Lots of interesting people to talk to when you aren’t working.

You havent lived til you have been in the thriving metropolis of Hugo, CO. Its a cool place, if your dog runs off you can still see him 3 days later.

That can be a good thing depending on the dog.

Fur has to be shipped and received, or brought in no later than the 6th of February, not much more than three weeks from today.

It's looking better that I can make the trip. Got out of a work meeting I forgot about. Now we just need the weather to cooperate

You know what would be really good in conjunction with a fur sale?





A big shot gun show that's what.





The demographic is cross applicable.

I think you mean a Big Shot, Gun Show!

Would be a humdinger if you could find the right help!

Oh man, it could grow into a big national thing.

If he has no fur then make sure he has at least 10 pounds of wild rice for the auction, for DOOR ADMISSION

First weekend in February is the deadline to put fur on the Colorado auction.

Seven days and counting for fur to arrive for the Colorado sale.

4- 1/2 days left to get your fur into the Colorado sale.

TTT

Dropped some stuff off yesterday its pretty neat!

Also would recommend the bronco buster burger at Jean's if youre in Hugo. Its cream cheese and jalapenos stuffed in a burger with bacon and onion rings on top.
