Trophy Importation Costs from Argentina

[Shootist43]

Have any of you taken a Red Stag or other animal in Argentina and had the cape, scull and horns sent to the U.S. for mounting? If so, how much did the freight forwarder charge?

Yep! I just looked back, about $2600 to get it from camp to BA. that includes dip pack as well. 2x stag and a blackbuck. I’ll have to dig up the final shipping, $550 or so I think.. it was cheaper to get my stuff back from Africa!

Mike B, I too think it is cheaper to get stuff back from Africa. That was the primary reason for the post. BTW your answer is exactly the info I was looking for.

All part of the addiction. Rationalizations.

We had a shipment recently that had 3 Red Stag skulls, horns, and cape and the freight "investment" was $1,941.20. Hope this helps!
