More hogwash.

And we hear from the Canadian mouth piece. LOL

What about your(and that other ejits) big mouth bashing Our auction house?
As an Ontario trapper I am closely affiliated with our auction house and elect a local director to the board and will call out your BS.

Nope! Ted Pappas told me about it.

......thats the same thing you told me about NAFA when you was defending them lol they are the way of the future you said!!!!!

If you knew anything about the auction houses you would know that NAFA was run by ranchers(and went down with them).
FHA has always been run by trappers.
And I told you C+T was the future.=Groeny knows it too.
I been selling fur in North bay for 49 years-you are wet behind the ears boy.

Ted told me it looked like this^^^^^^^^

......thats better than empty between the ears!!! lol after 49 years you would think you would know better!

I believe this is as close as you get. There has never been a time I have been sent a check from any auction house without an invoice. They update my account almost instantly during a sale. Why would they have chose not to this time? If you do not have questions then you are probably lacking something between your ears. LLL

Wow! Way too many negative Nellies out their. If you do not like where you are selling your fur than go elsewhere. That is always your option. People do not need to bash FHA, Groenwolds, or any other person trying to run a business. They are doing the best they can in these trying times.

I don’t understand why so many complain about the auction house trying to move fur. There are other options south of the border. America first right?

Personally, we know what our western heavy yotes will get us from a buyer. What I dislike is that FHA has made pickup dates in April mere days before the auction making it impossible for us to guage what to expect for prices there. I’d like to see my 17 yr old get the best $ he can for his hard work and the April delivery date for the next auction keeps trappers in the dark.

How much fur did you send up north to have them pt? I sent a lot for them to auction off. If you did send it then by all means I hope you did well. It is an auction house not a broker for other fur companies. LLL

I will add that they have never done "business" like this in the past. If you sell something are you not due a notice of what and how much before you decide to ship more? I bet none of you have ever got screwed by an auction house before like some of us have.(SHAFTA) LLL

Good morning read is it not Crosspatch
come two months from now when the accounts do get updated and we can see through this smoke screen they have put out

few people remember the PT sales with the muskrats back when the prices started to rise.
There must be quite an outstanding trapper in North Bay to catch 100,000 and then send them to Toronto is the point I don't understand.

Finally capitulation
Groeny is the Warren Buffett of the fur trade.

I have sent plenty of fur to the large auction houses for thirty years. I would say I have been very satisfied for 28 years. I was upset back in 88' or 89' when North Bay had it's issues and a few years ago when NAFA went down. All of my fur sold that year for a satisfactory amount, but my last check for 4 blanket beaver bounced.

Isn’t that the truth eh

Blood in the streets!!

The interesting thing is Warren Buffett has underperformed the markets, the last 10 years. Fact.

Or the Walmart of the fur trade. Buy cheap, high volume, low margin, sell below competator prices, eliminate competition, control market.
