Traps In Chewelah
« on: February 23, 2024, 09:39:23 AM »
Traps at an estate sale today. I think they were reasonably priced but I’m not sure.
$5 is a lot of money if you ain't got it

I’d buy every 220 and larger if I was in that area

Yeah, I’m not familiar with trap prices but I didn’t think $20 for large traps were high and then the medium and smaller were $10 and $5 :dunno: .

Yeah, I guess that isn’t a steal for those traps. I didn’t realize how inexpensive they are brand new. Might be able to make a deal with them for a bundle price. They weren’t exactly flying off the shelf like everything else was.

Its really hard to judge worth right now in anything.  Heck a dozen eggs might cost you 10 bucks.   How do you compare that to a steel trap?   People are posting used clothes on here for more than what they probably were new.   Its tough.  I probably would have blown a bunch of money eventhough I have a couple 50 gallon drums worth of traps.

They would probably get those prices if they lived in a State you could use them.

I as there today and yeah the prices for the traps are higher than an estate sale price. The 110 conibears are cheaper at North 40. They should be 1/2 price tomorrow. I might go to see what is left. Looks like most of the jump traps were made in Korea.  I got a few tools and a little fishing stuff. The wife got some ebay inventory.

Any larger traps? #4s or bigger? Any contact info?
If you shoot the first one you will never get that true trophy.

What time were you there? We got there at 8:20 and it was a zoo! There wasn’t any smokin’ deals there that’s for sure.

I was there about 7:45 and they were already letting people in. If I go back tomorrow I can check sizes on any traps left over. I do have the number of the company doing the estate sale if you want the number.....

Why conibears? What would you trap with then?
Anybody amongst us who believes gun control is for public safety while they allow millions of illegal alien criminals into our country is... well, braindead.
