pnwhist Posted March 6 Posted March 6 (edited) I hope you get it @WinnipegFur! There is one Lynx in my area that the seller is asking $1000 for but it’s not really the type and look of Lynx that salivate over (think JLO in that Hustlers movie) so I’d probably only offer $300 if I had the $$$. Didnt you get a Lynx awhile back though? You greedy little son of a gun 😉 LOL Some of us have zero to play with 🙂 Edited March 6 by pnwhist

Didnt you get a Lynx awhile back though? You greedy little son of a gun 😉 LOL Some of us have zero to play with 🙂 I have a full length lynx coat, and a lynx parka... $150 for each... this lynx wasn't that great, but someone already beat me to it.. its been marked as sold already..only lasted 3 hours on marketplace... I find it funny how many furs sell on there, yet never see anyone wearing them... all year Ive seen maybe 3 or 4 fur coats... 1
kev86 Posted March 7 Posted March 7 The weather play with our mental health, haha... When, I watch the weather in my area, I will have the opportunity to wear my fur in two weeks. The price for the lynx is really good. i never understood why many people are selling fur coats and we never saw it in the street. it's really bad... Now, we are more ready for the next autumn and winter season.

As soon as you mention Jlo in hustlers, I’m like a moth to a flame lol. 1
WinnipegFur Posted March 7 Author Posted March 7 This was it... My other lynx are way better.. but this was still a lynx and would have liked to have it... 2

kev86 Posted March 8 Posted March 8 I agree with that, a good vintage lynx but missing a little bit of volume and fur quality. This is a good one for the price... Not easy to find a lynx coat in high size when we are a man.

I think this winter Ive picked up two.. another raccoon, and the full length mens coyote.. still impaitiently awaiting one of those 80s/90s full length power fox coats to make an appearance on market place... The one big Finnish raccon/fox jacket ive had my eye on all winter still hasnt sold, and shes still asking almost $1000 for it, and its gotta be 20+ years old... 1

I understand that the problem with people who are selling fur coat, people don't know how selling them for a good price. Honestly, $1000 is expensive for a older fur coat, especially if the coat is not in good condition. Maybe, you will find a massive fox during the year. This year, I purchase a massive fox or coyote, I'm patient for the perfect one, a great price for a good deal. Edited March 8 by kev86
WinnipegFur Posted March 9 Author Posted March 9 Walked 3 park laps this morning in my raccoon... it was -10, but a North 30kmh wind which nicely whipped the long gaurd hairs around on the sleeves... unfortunately, ran into no one at all walking.. funny I see people out walking when its -30, but now its -10 and no one out there... probably got scared since it was +3 yesterday hahaha See... this is why you need a fur coat.. you don't care what the temperature is!! 3
WinnipegFur Posted Thursday at 09:40 PM Author Posted Thursday at 09:40 PM No one out again this morning for my 40 minute walk... I must be getting to the park after the ladies I stop and talk with have walked through... It looks like about about 5 more definite heavy full length fur coat days for me... Sunday night is calling a -27 overnight low and a -35 windchill... thats insanely cold for this time of year here... it kind of warms through the week though... +3 high +1 low by mid week.. I don't find mink overly warm, so might be a mink day, or start pulling out the parkas... although lynx or timber wolf are going to be insanely warm at 0 degrees.... Looking at the overall long range, I figure I can almost push my fur coat morning walks into Mid April... as long as its below zero I call it fair game!!! Id definatly be happy to get a few more weeks before resorting to wearing them indoors until mid October again... 1
WinnipegFur Posted Thursday at 10:01 PM Author Posted Thursday at 10:01 PM (edited) Came across this coyote on marketplace... Was $1000, now down to $599... I asked for some measurements... if it fits Im gonna offer her less and see if she bites on it... cant have too many coyotes... So she mailed me back.. 51 inches long and 26 inch sleeve length.... thats right in the ball park... Edited Thursday at 11:12 PM by WinnipegFur 1 2

Definitely ask for pictures of the lining and high wear areas like armpits, shoulders, cuffs, and areas by the closures.
kev86 Posted Friday at 10:53 AM Posted Friday at 10:53 AM We are always happy to have more time to wear our furs before spring season. I watched the weather and the weekend is perfect for wearing fur and enjoying a long walk around the park. The coyote is beautiful and you are ready for a big collection of coyote fur coats, a real coyote meeting, hahaha... 1
kev86 Posted Sunday at 01:09 PM Posted Sunday at 01:09 PM (edited) A fabulous morning for enjoying our furs. i went to a flea market for chilling and met friends. The weather was great, a beautiful sun, blue sky and cold wind (-1°C). I was wearing my reversible mink fur and matching leather gloves with rabbit lined, a comfortable feeling and a beautiful sensation of softness during two hours... I met a fabulous older lady who was selling different items : diamond, silver cutlery set and more... She was wrapped in a fantastic reversible brown mink full pelts, high mink pelts quality. We talked about fur during a few minutes, a beautiful moment, she was so adorable... Always a pleasure to wear my fur coat on the street and appreciate the last weekend of winter season. The period is very good with cold weather and gives me opportunity for wearing my fur the next week. Edited Sunday at 01:15 PM by kev86 2
WinnipegFur Posted 5 hours ago Author Posted 5 hours ago Looks like I'll still have some morning fur walks til the end of the month... I got out this morning in my raccoon coat and hat for a 30 minute walk around the park.. I ran into two new women walking their dogs.. Just a polite good morning to each other and that was all.. it was the perfect morning for a fur coat though.. -17 with a 20kmh wind so it was quite comfortable... the weather chnaged quick though and we got about 8cm of fresh snow and the wind really picked up.. the next few days are all over the map.. highs anywhere from +1 to +6 from tomorrow, then they flip again to the minus -10 overnight lows next week.. tonite is -7 so might be a nice walk in my Wolf or Lynx parka tomorrow... I Thursday/Friday are actually calling rain and freezing rain though.. morning will still be cool enough for a fur coat.. possibly pull out a mink if its around -5, but the freezing rain will make the path I walk on like a skating rink... See how long I can push the fur coats this spring.. right now its still cold so not out of place.. +5 and walking in fur though might look a little out of place here.. yes, +5 doesnt sound too warm, but after we suffer through -30 overnight lows, +5 is a heatwave to us... I would actually not be surprised to see the occasional idiot wearing shorts if it hits +6...
