Very off topic Question
« on: Jan 16, 2024, 09:41 AM »
Is there anyone out there that can tell me if there are any fur buyers in north east Indiana? I know there is very little value in anything i have and i only trap and harvest just to control predation and overall health. Hoping to just maybe make enough to buy a few tungsten ice jigs. PM if you want.

I have a buddy that usually buys furs off me.  I sent him a text.  Will pm you with his response.  What are you looking to sell?

Gruenwald has a furbuying route through indiana I'm selling my furs to him at hoosier trapper March 3rd in greenwood. He is out of Illinois I think. Has a website you can check for routes and dates. Took 10 coyotes 20 coon and only 7 muskrat.

He said he's not buying anything this year.  I was thinking Dale Hardy Supplies in Logansport has a buyer or was a buyer.

The Indiana State Trappers Association has their fur auction at the Miami Co. fair grounds on Feb. 10. You have to be a member to sell fur, if you want I can throw them in with my lot and then settle up afterwards. If is just green coons I wouldn't except to get more than a buck or two for a big prime skin and any smaller likely won't sell. Fur market is way down even coyotes are not selling well, beaver and otter isn't bad but not great.

I may take you up on that. It's only a few miles from my home. I'll be in touch before the 10. Yea I don't expect much money just don't want to just throw away if I don't have to. I probable only have a couple they would even consider but that's ok.  Maybe I can do a little horse trading. Pelts for a membership. Thank you.
