Your coyote prices for this season reflect last season prices, YAY
Predictions for this season were to be $85 for top pelts.
I hope you're right.

Yes, the above is accurate.

We grade skins accurately to established industry grading. My current least favorite outfit is now spreading that every buyer grades differently... that is true, but what is happening is some grade accurately to industry standards and others have their own personal form of... "Grading", and one must spend some time listening to their definitions of terms to understand what they are putting and where, how, when, etc

The $85 top price story came from a very unreliable guy... same guy is regularly spewing all kinds of false information. I think he may have been trying to set people up to buy low. Another story same guy was spreading was that I was not buying this year. I dont understand why people spread such "false information"? What drives people to speak in such untruths on such a regular basis? Whatever...

Game on! The buying world could get real interesting, and then new stories to come???

All pending the "Great Restart" or ideally the "Second Coming"!!!

Italy has stagnated hard, still have lotsa goods, China is hungry for coyotes as is Canada Goose.

Go Goose!!! and be a nice Goose!

It will be interesting what the 15 million mink slaughter in Denmark will do to the trim market. News the other day said they were going to dig them up and now incinerate the carcusies. They obviously were not pelted out.
