Can I sell capes or antlers?

[livtohutn]

I have just started hunting this year, more for the meat than for the sport.  As I have a new family, and with the economy being this bad I can't really afford to have any animals mounted.  However I am wondering if I could sell the capes and antlers.  If so, is cash paid, or just credit towards taxidermy?  I would much rather just sell them instead of getting credit I think it will be a long time in coming until I can get something professionally mounted...
Thank you in advance for your response.

Capes should be in excellent condition and do not have a lot of repair work to do ie: cutting up the briscuit or slashing the neck , I must be able to look at the cape so if frozen will be skeptical of purchasing. 

Whitetail – have plenty will not be buying any this year
Blacktail/Mule deer  -
16-18.5” – 75.00
19-21” – 85.00
21.5 and larger – 95.00

Elk
23-27” – 100.00
27.5 – 30 – 125.00
30.5 and larger – 135.00

All capes must have hunters name, license number and tag number.
I will only PAY CASH  for specimans, I will not give credit towards work you want completed. If you want work completed by me we can keep transactions separate in my opinion that is the best way.
At this time I am only interested in 3-5 capes of each species so if you get one let me know…

Thanks
Joe

I buy capes!  Elk, Moose, Deer, Antelope, etc.  Iwill also buy bear hides as long as they are in good shap and have a good hide.
