FHA sale Coyote and Muskrat results
|
Does bidding continue on Coyote and Muskrat or is this the final result?
|
as far as i understood it the bidding was closed on those items, beavers should be up now, otters sounded decent improvement also. Pretty exciting news.
|
Yes, FHA sent me the info here:
http://www.furharvesters.com/catalog...PR_CAT_BUY.pdf Where are you listening to the auction? |
Think my finished rats (few as they are) will spend some time in the freezer.
|
Interesting, pretty tight between average and top. Could it be that in 31000 coyotes offered it was lower to average goods and this means there’s a greater demand for lower goods. Because if you look at results from august top was 100$ more at 281$ ?
|
Im sure had it been an actual in person auction perhaps you'd see the higher prices for the top ones. Nice ave though all things considered.

Who were the big coyote players (buyers) Marty?

Last August Western Heavy Coyotes were 100% sold with an average of $98.73 Canadian. This auction.....100% sold with an average of US $98.52 (about $120 Canadian). It’s still not back to where it was but......Oooolala! :sHa_shakeshout: Any word on how marten and beaver did? |
Ill leave it to FHA to give you the updates on the other species. Their work their project, etc
Bid is basically secret, buyers given a number known only to FHA Rats did well compared to where market was at in my books! Very predictable Very limited western heavy coyotes on this sale, 11,000 westerns??? Of which a significant percentage of semi heavy. |
Cant you guys look up beaver marten in your own accounts?
|
I'm going to try get ahold of them to access my account tomorrow, I still haven't seen what mine graded (coyotes) but would sure like to know. What did the rest of you guys see on your grades vs what you expected when you shipped?
$180 top doesn't sound like anything special, but $120 average is respectable. No crazy bidders for the nicest top lot ones like the NAFA days though, that's fairly clear far as that April 18th news release goes. |
My prices are posted for beaver and coyote. :)
|
Are you happy you chose to ship dave? I am.
|
Are you guys able to look up your accounts yet?
One of my friends did, at least sez he did |
Mines updated.
Rats: Avg 4.88 Beaver: Avg 15.48 Otter: Avg 13.00 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Guys looks encouraging when only 200 buyers. Also when you post your prices always indicate US$ or Ca$ at $1.20 makes a big difference.

Averaged 86 USD on my coyotes.
148 usd was top. Couple at 120 |
Ave 106 on yotes top 148
Ave 4.96 of skrats Beavs unsold |
Beaver 19.50 us average on nine
Lynx 83.67 us average three out of four sold Martin 41.92 average on 18 all went semi heavy ? Coyote 100.12 us average on 25 all sold Glad the buyer ****ed me off made way more than he was offering on everything |
Im glad too!!!
🙃 Which buyer was it? Surely not me??? I make deal unless poopy stuff.... then me not want |
The way the market has been, it's been a crap shoot either way to sell or ship. Last year most guys were happy they sold their coyotes instead of shipped. This year about 50/50. Its nice we have an option now, I personally almost always ship. Its exciting to see wild fur starting to bounce back, especially the items I mainly target. Rats and coyotes. Beavers would be nice if they doubled or tripled in value also. See how my skunks and bears do at auction now....

In the other buyers defense, i had that happen once or twice this winter, it can get hairy out there, as in crazy/busy. Texting a person again or calling can save your day in such instance.
Rabbit trail Small bunch of coyotes on this sale, not a lot of western heavy. Point being this is a small collection and the market still has to sort itself out once the bulk of the goods produced this year find homes. I suspect many folks hungry for goods and continue to be but we’ll see where it all lands. |
Did anyone have their castor not sell? youd think castor being in high demand woudlve sold, i had all 3 grades at auction and none of it sold...
|
It never sells until well after the sale usually a few days to a week after the sale it will show up sold, it will sell just hurry up and wait.
|
Jawa, very interesting that none of your martin went heavies. I found All my grades last year were much lower with FHA. I have received Top Lot with Nafa, now I cannot get Any decent grades with FHA??
|
Just got some fisher numbers from some last year pelts that sold now averaged around $20. How the hell are we going to pay for the $1.25 gas and diesel?
|
My coyotes did pretty good.. $150 lot was my best, $143.xx next best, $123ish average on the remainder. All converted roughly to CND dollars. It's short of my last few showings through NAFA, but still respectable.
Gaining some confidence, I think I'll ship more through FHA down the road. This year I did spread my furs between buyers, the auction and even sent some to tan, not knowing what would come of just sending to auction. Next year I think I'll focus on putting the works all up and shipping everything, like before. Pretty clearly still beats the buyers-route. |
