EdD270 Report post Posted March 9, 2010 I've bought some stuff on eBay. Generally good experiences. You do need to pay attention to shipping, though. I've had two items get lost in the US Mail. If you get something expensive, or important to you, have it shipped surface freight and really consider getting insurance. Also watch shipping costs. Some sellers seem to list items for a bargain rate, but charge excessive shipping costs to make it up. Hope that helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

grizzly Report post Posted March 9, 2010 Its technically illegal to buy or sell antlers. There was a post on archerytalk where a guy sold his mounts on craigslist and it was a sting, got busted for it. Not saying this is the case but buyer beware. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CouesridgeConst. Report post Posted March 10, 2010 That is only if it is illegal in the state they are selling from (only a few). This seller on ebay is from Arizona where it is not illegal. If you search his other items on ebay he has several coues for sale (including a 117" Whopper) and also a nice eastern 10pt. Just thought I would pass that along.

Str8Shot Report post Posted March 10, 2010 The only way it would be illegal would be if it is not a Tribal member being they are stating they are lion kills from the rez .... Sheds, and pick-ups are not permitted on the WMAT for non tribal members .... Not completely sure How the Tribe responds to members selling sheds or pick-ups but know for sure it is a no no for non members and these posts clearly state they are from the WMAT though they post them WMAIR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GRONG Report post Posted March 10, 2010 In order for any tribal member to sell any pick-up or kill that they have there must be a tag on it in order for it to be legally sold to me and for me to possess it. Their game dept issues "blue tags" for pick-ups and your standard sticky tags for hunter killed animals. If I was to buy a PU head that didn't have a "blue tag" then I'd be in posession of an illegally picked up head and could be cited and the head would most certainly confiscated which means I lose out on any money I paid for it. But in AZ it is most certainly not illegal to buy and sell antlers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
