I sell some of my furs through the NAFA Auction house.Now when you ship to auction all furs must be put up.
 I also sell to a local buyer,Jim Rosenwald at North Star furs.Jim and I have been doing business together for about 25 years.
 All of my spring beaver go to jim--at that time of year I do not have the time or space for putting up large numbers of beaver.I sell all my spring beaver ,green.
Having dealt with Jim for so many years , he knows what quality of furs I am going to bring him.I also tell him if some of the green fur is lacking in qaulity--do to biting or rubbing.It sure helps to build trust ,when you each treat each other as you would like to be treated.  Tom
If you need trapping supplies---call ,E-mail , or PM me . Home of Tom Olson's Mound Master Beaver Lures  ,Blackies Blend--lures and baits.Snare supplies,Dye ,dip,wax,Large assortment of gloves and Choppers-at very good prices.Hardware,snares,cable restraints and more!Give me a call(651) 436-2539

This will be my first year of selling furs and I am going to sell at the KY Fur Takers Auction. I will put all my furs up my self because I will have more pride in them. Also they will bring better prices. :wink:
