The fur market is in the toilet right now. I am keeping everything myself to get tanned for later use. A few years ago it was easy to average over $150 apiece on marten from Alaska, now you would be LUCKY to average half that.

kinda what I figured,I thought I read that it was climbing back up with many going to the Chinese market.
thanks
