[QUOTE="Boone25/06, post: 5480486, member: 15523"] Prices are all over the place. $400 - $500 seems to be the going rate for quality tanned mounts. There will always be some cheaper and less wait times but these are usually the hobby or just getting started in the business. Some cheaper ones are quality that will last other are still developing their skills. Hit or miss. Show quality will be $600 plus and dependent on taxidermist if they are willing or even able to do that. Most important to me is the longevity of the mount. I will only do pro tanned mounts because most look the same 15 years after mounting. Less chance of bugs destroying hide, cape shrinkage , and fading. Doesn’t hurt I have made good friends with my taxidermist and stop in often to see the whole process being done. Lots of time and work and a special eye for details are required. [/QUOTE]
