Boy...do I ever feel like an idiot! A friend asked me to sell a bear skin for her on ebay! I know nothing about the rules and regulations about selling certain skins....that is not until I got a notice from ebay telling me I breaking the law! I also know nothing about the worth of the thing. It is a redish/brown skin. Approx 6' X 5'. The hide is soft and pliable....the head is there...but not stuffed. No claws. She claims to have paid $900 for it from an antique shop in 1994.(but that seemed very high to me) I was gong to start the bidding at $450 (to high?) on ebay....but now I don't have a clue where I can legally list it. Any suggestions on where I can list it and on the worth?

....But the skin is probably worth NO MORE that $100, if that. No claws and that old a skin is most likely not mountable anymore. Try Yahoo auctions. But first be sure that it is legal to sell it in YOUR state.


Well you could try the "for sale" button
