TOMO 26,067 Posted June 25, 2012 Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 yeh funny thing ferret prices,,, would it be better for ferrets if we all had to pay good money for them???,,, personly i tend to give them away,,, but i dont see a problem with folk paying £20............. i have paid a tenner for one befor..... but its a good while since i bought any... £50 does seem alot,,,, but i have seen two supposedly half cross eu x ferrets,,, go through the auction at melton for £70 each,,, also seen sivers and the like get £30-40 1 Link to post

Rake aboot 4,935 Posted June 25, 2012 Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 Holy crap. 50 bucks for a dark ferret cause Mackay said it was a Polecat., Brilliant. It`s a ferret mate, same as all the 5 quid ferrets that are all over the place 1 Link to post
