The number of pelts for each receipt showed up in my online account today. The fur is on show starting May 3. If they are on show, wouldn't they have to be already graded and in lots so buyers know what they are looking at? Any day now I guess.

yes, my receipts have been in my account since last week, so thought, given the time frame, perhaps the letters would be out...........HAS to be out any day now, or we won't have them in time for the sale.

In my online NAFA account.

.......And POOF, they just disappeared! I had 29 coyotes of 96 show up and one muskrat that must have been left over from last year. No fox or beaver showed yet. They must be updating and adding more fur to my account.

Yes, but my Lotting Letters hasn't reappeared yet.

Posted on the NAFA site........"Lotting and Sales data will be available for Trapper and Rancher accounts beginning May 2. More inventory will be posted as the catalogues are finalized."

I opened my acct this morning and the heading, 'lotting letters' was there, so I got all excited, but when I opened the link, all it showed was lotting for the feb sale.

I just went back in to check and the lotting letter link is gone completely. i'm thinking they must be working on it and having issues.

I'm happy. Lots i I*'s for me on yotes. Had some real good amount of select and I*'s but also had a few more damaged than i thought.
I had a pile of weasels and hope they sell.
My fisher were all I*'s ecept one that was a SLD which surprised me as I thought they were all perfect. All in all it was good for me. Really pumped and surprised at all the I* coyotes I got

The stage is set, grades look awesome, Herman said expect the market to hold, even likely increase. The writing is on the wall when you look at the info provided.

Talked to a couple of gloomers, big shots at that even, but me thinks she looks rosy.

All coyote talk tho... do realize that.

Talk is, by some very heavy hitters to not expect a repeat of Feb... however I am not yet convinced. I think they are going to get a fair ways down the catalogue before anything changes drastically, if it does at all??? The word is that the values are a little overinflated, but what do you expect? Drop the values in a smoking hot market? People are looking forward with much anticipation of a high coyote sale. All coyotes I'm talking. But long before the coyotes are 700-800 wolves or something... 5 hours of pain unless yer a big wolf guy!

The trappers fantacize about the market/prices picking up even higher, while the buyers fantacize about the market slowing up so they can catch their breathe!

Yes. Unfortunately or fortunately this is the nature of the auction system. Hopefully the latter for those selling!

Darn it Marty. Took Herman s and your earlier prediction and bought a TW 200 for elk hunting thinking I d make a fortune on my coyotes. Now waiting on my results knowing full well that some of my open dogs will not do well. Been at this game for close to 50 years and realize its always a crap shoot. As a sidenote we got away with numerous damaged dogs in one lot while in the next lot we had no sew jobs,similar quality and got hit for damaged ones, hard.Yes, I also realize that sew jobs are not the only factor resulting in damaged goods.Another grading concern that I fail to figure out is how they grade for colour.Lets cross our fingers and good luck to everyone.
