With the posts that are present so far, on this subject , I am pleased with the practical replies so far. It appears that these trappers are living in the real world and not in the one where the world still owes them a living, as is the case with the whiners and criers that are posting on the CNTA forum. They are all ****ed at NAFA for not getting them the monies they needed to survive and can't understand how their furs can be sold for such prices. I, like the next guy, want the best prices too, but have seen low fur prices, even when the economy was good. And in the back of my mind, I also knew that an auction sale is just that - - an auction sale- - , anything goes.. There are also those on that other site, who feel that FHA, would have gotten them the money they deserve ..Yah right , since when ??
I haven't replied to that site and am almost afraid to do so for what I might say. One would think for certain that NAFA had threatened their families if they didn't put their fur in the sale. My fur is in the freezer, maybe not the best thing to do , as the next sale will prob. not be any better, BUT that was my choice, and I'll live with it---
Keep your chins up fellas, cuz the spring runoff hasn't started yet and the water will be getting deeper before it goes down
