A guy wants a beaver done for his Den.  Just a normal hoop skinned beaver without feet for a wall hanging.

I had three tanned and I think it cost 90 dollars or so for the three. Just for the tanning, plus shipping? Cant remember exactly its been a while. 125 sounds ok to me.

When it comes to pricing, you have to get what YOU need to pay your bills, cover overhead, and still make a decent living. It is hard to ask someone else what to charge as their overhead or cost of living may be higher or lower thsan yours. Price it so you make money, dontt get into the habit of pricing by comparison to other shops, it will run ya broke in a hertbeat.
