I just checked and the grades for my beaver and red fox are posted......no link to the catalogue though. My coyote and muskrat aren't showing yet.

Well for the first time in 20 years I've got 4 3xl beavers that graded eastern, every year I ship anywhere from 50 to 100 beavers and never had a eastern grade yet. Pretty cool anyway.

I have two Eastern Beaver as well......#911 and #112. One is a Black 3XL one that I put in that graded XD-DK for colour. I wonder if that had to do with it. The other was a LGE BR.
Top Lots are all *I for LGE to 3XL.

While we are on the lotting letter subject ,there is no description on them as to the section quality like there is on your final sales printout ..is there a way to find this out in advance of the sale?

I have to say that I'm a little bit disappointed about my grades on this auction ... but not surprised. I've caught almost the same number than previous years but the quality of the fur was not as nice than last season and I can't really explain why. I start my trapping season only in December and I close everything earlier than usual. So most of my coyotes been caught in their prime time. No select, only two *I, couple I-II and a lot of grade II. Still can't wait to see the results...$$$ !

Never noticed that, youd think there would be since pretty soon you'll no longer get a printed out result package in the mail. It will all be online, it might even be this sale it starts I cant remember.

Guys, NAFA has been in the fur business for along time. They do everything they can to get our fur moved at best price. Their commission is based on price.

Nobody is trying to knock nafa. They do a great job and are the best in this business. I think they understand the industry better then anybody and will do the right thing that's best for trapper and customer. Guys are just curious is all.

This is an excellent point and a great question to ask Mary. I'd even be happy to have the info after the sale but I don't know of any reason why NAFA wouldn't post it before the sale. Those descriptions explain a lot as to why the pelts sold for what they did (ie. PR, ELY, RUB, etc). Do you want to email Mary or should I?
I had one beaver pelt that had 4-8 beside the grading. "Off Colour - Red Rim". That's all that NAFA would have to add for all pelts. At least I'll know why that particular pelt sold (if it sells....lol) for less than others graded the same without the Red Rim.

Some other members of AO told me to click on the PDF file in catalogue and the quality listing will come up .. Doesnt work in my case . Email her if you like , I'll just wait til sale day I guess and see what shows when they sell .

For your grade break down just click on the name like beaver or coyote and it will go to another page.
My marten and fisher are not posted yet or my fur counts, as some were missing.

These are my top grades. Alot better then they were last year but I knew that going in. My coyotes had improved quite a bit, especially in colour. Ultimately I'm satisfied.
I'm short one coyote. It's not showing up in my lotting letter. I'm hoping it will show up in the next couple days. I heard it normal for that to happen. Anyways, best of luck on the sale everyone. God bless.

I haven’t explored the new site too much but......Tapping on lot numbers in your account doesn’t take you to shaded lots in the catalogue anymore. Maybe when the auction is underway?

Pretty sure they changed that for the second auction last year already. Pretty lame. If you find a way to make it work let me know

Got in to see my beaver, thanks. I can't get into the live auction though. I don't expect much for my red fox anyway. I just hope that they sell for whatever I can get.
