4 mounts from a Namibia hunt that I need to sell

Red Hartebeest 59 1/8 score
All 4 animals were bow hunts.
Safari Life Taxidermy in San Antonio, TX did the mounts.

As said above, people in affluent "cabin country" will pay a decent sum for such things (typically the bigger, the better.) I've seen such people walk into taxidermy shops and drop $5K for a moose or cape buffalo. I'm sure the price would be less for PG, but surely a Kudu and Gemsbok would be desirable to someone (and maybe the others.) My dentist is decorating her office with african stuff, as one example. She used to live in Moz but didn't import any of her dad's stuff back to the US (and misses it!) E-bay. Look at comparative sales when arriving at price.
 
Be advised, I'm pretty sure it's still illegal to sell mounts or trophies of game animals in Alaska, and I don't think it's just Alaskan animals. I know people are advertising them all the time on AlaskasList and such, but I know some people have been arrested for it. Haven't heard for a few years, I'm sure one of my compatriots will be along to correct me.
 
Beautiful mounts, sorry you need to sell them. I really like the gemsbok. Good luck.

HAVE TO SHIP TO THEM THOUGH. SO MAY OR MAY NOT BE WORTH IT.

WE MOVED TO COSTA RICA LAST YEAR AND I GOT RID OF ALMOST ALL OF MY TROPHIES, ADVERTISED SOME ON CRAIGSLIST BUT GUYS TRYING TO BEAT ME DOWN TO "FREE" PISSED ME OFF AND I GAVE MOST AWAY TO FRIENDS.
The more they can talk you down on price the bigger their story will be about how the gemsbok charged and it was life or death and how they made a 600yd shot on the eland had a clean pass through and killed the hartebeest standing behind him!

Business is the only way to fly. I'm headed to SA August 25. I'm hoping that business isn't an arm and a leg. If you don't mind, what airline and the cost for your trip. Mine will be convoluted. I'll be flying into the states to pick up my 416 Rigby as Thailand doesn't allow firearms (pay no attention to the daily shootings and killings) so I'll have 2 very long trips.

Hi EGS

I read your thread with interest. Would you mind sending me that PDF? May I put it on my website?
