Met Gary Groenewold & The Beaver Wagon at Carson's Pizza barn yard
in Adams, N.Y. to sell my beaver plews this morning.

There were 15 other trapper's pickup trucks waiting to sell as well.

Ended up selling 16 larger beaver & "NO SALED" 15 med/small plews.

These were raw, rough skinned, frozen, folded in half pelts.

Prices as follows:

2 3XL @ $40.00.

4 2XL @ $32.00.

8 1XL- LG @ $22.00.

2 Med @ $10.00.

1 Past Prime 1XL mink @ $4.00.

16 Beaver total @ $404.00. $25.25 average.

Gary offered $5.00 each for 15 med/small beaver
which we "no saled" as we already had a better offer.

Thought there was a tough grade on the 1XL which
Gary said were "small 1XL's" & he graded/payed for them as larges.

Saw Muskrats sold @ $6-$4-$2.50-$1.

Mink: female $4.00.Males $5.00 to $7.00.

Otter: $35-$25-$20.

Grey Fox: $12.00.

Red Fox: $10.00.

Bobcat: $60.00

Coon: $5-$3-$1.

Coyotes -Not Happy !! $7-$5-$3-NV.

Fisher $40-$30-$20.

Castor: $15.00 a pound.

The Beaver Wagon was jam-packed 3/4ths full to the ceiling with
mostly frozen beaver. Beaver trapping is alive & well in Northern New York State.

Big Thank you to Gary Groenewold for providing New York trappers
with a fair, honest, & convenient option for selling their wild fur.

That's what I saw & how I did !!!

walleyed

Glad you had a good day......

Dang great job.

You did good.

You go walleyed!

Groeny Rocks!

We're the mink and rats put up?

My partner sold him a few coyotes at 10 dollars each just to clarify

Thanks for the report. Rats top seems to have went up.

Not my rats or mink, but the ones I saw sold were all put up.

I coined the term “Groeny Rocks! 15 years ago, do something original and quit plagarazing me!!

^^This is true. ....cat daddy rocks!

Okay,

You spelt plagiarizing wrong !!!

After 15 years have expired, your copyright is null & void,

& it reverts to the Public Domain !!!

That’s a lotta cubs.
Were you doing nuisance work?

So, if you would have sold your whole assortment of beaver you would have averaged $15.45 at the rat wagon?

Is that what the math says ?

We didn't calculate our average using
the price offers of beaver that we didn't sell.

Treated right for sure and no 11 % commission

And money/cheque in hand !!!

in one of his clips a fellow deposites via phone.....and say "all good"
and no waiting 3 weeks after promotion date for snail mail

I too saw Groeny today. I thought his price on unfinished beaver was pretty fair. I do agree with Walleyed that he may have hedged some on the smaller sizes. Maybe not so good on finished goods that could have been marketed other places. Overall, if you had decent sized unfinished beaver, you did pretty good.

I look at it this way he’s a great option, he’s got to make money and I do believe you can do great with FHA but you have to live in the right regions or like most we’re toast . I for one am happy with groeny check in hand since our local buyers don’t exist anymore
