oflag Report post Posted September 29, 2020 I've seen life size capes recently go for about $2500 so I'm hoping to find a shoulder mount cape that someone decided to just go euro and has the cape in the freezer.....definitely a long shot but gotta try. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AZkiller Report post Posted October 22, 2020 There was a guy a while back that shot a "ram" that I don't think there was any possible way any human with a functional pre frontal cortex would mount. Maybe he has a cape from a 4yo "ram" for sale? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trphyhntr Report post Posted October 22, 2020 My dad might not want his cape If he gets one this year. Of course, it would be for several thousand dollars. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
