Guest vin Posted February 4, 2015 Report Share Posted February 4, 2015 We are the mugs when you think about it... selling them too cheap to these people. Game dealers want to pay as little as poss and 90% of the game we catch goes to Pet food manufacturers etc etc. I think a good clean healthy well sized wild caught fresh skinned and prepared for the table rabbit should be worth a Fiver these days.

Gaz6br 193 Posted February 4, 2015 Report Share Posted February 4, 2015 Nice £2:50 we get bagged and skinned Gaz Quote Link to post
pie-eater 377 Posted February 4, 2015 Report Share Posted February 4, 2015 (edited) What I don't get is butchers paid a pound for them when they were selling them for £3, now I hear they want somewhere between £6-£8 and they still only want to pay £1-£1.50 for them. Tight feckers in my area by the sound of it. Edited February 4, 2015 by pie-eater Quote Link to post
