How much is a tiger and lion skin worth?

Hi.
I ran into a gentleman here in Ohio who raises some tigers and lions. And he was wondering how much I would give him for either of these animals when they die of natural causes. And seeing how I have never bought these skins before, I was hoping to get some advice from someone.
These prices should be for the whole animal that I would skin out myself and in great shape.
What would a person offer for these?
Thanks in advance.

Ha Ha. Buy them for 400.00 0r 500.00, and you can probably sell them once their tanned, for 1500.00-2000.00 Everyone gets so paranoid about spots and stripes. As long as you buy and sell within your own state, and you buy from a legal vendor, there are no laws that states you can't have these animals.
