So I am just wondering who you prefer to sell too and the price for antlers? My family is going on a big family vacation and I am hoping to have a little more money! I have never sold antlers, I have traded for calls etc.

I live in western Colorado! I do know one guy who buys, but he bounced a check to a buddy and things got ugly!

I probably have close to 30 elk antlers and 20 deer antlers. Some Browns but most are hard whites in good shape.
 
I have been selling antlers for the last 15 years and have sold to many different people and hands down the best guy to sell to is Jared Steele. He doesn't try to screw you around about quality and the grading is the fairest I have found. Also can't find anyone that matches his prices give him a call +1 (801) 473-3508
 
I switched to selling to Steve Sorensen 5 years ago to avoid the same problems. Haven't had the need to look anywhere else. He is a lot easier to get a hold of as well. Sliverslinger400

X10 for Jared. Straight up guy awesome grading and pays cash nothing to bounce I've been screwed over before and won't accept checks as payment anymore
 
If you are near Gunnison try calling Traders Rondezvous at 970-641-5077. Be sure to make an appointment with Randy. He's been great for me for ten years now.
 
I'm not sure what everyone else is paying but last night at the antler fest in Alpine, Wy. I was offered $14.50lb for brown elk. I'm not ready to sell though.
 
Not sure who you sold to that bounced a check but I have sold to Dennis here is grand junction (he has a add in the nickel) he was super awesome on grading and paid me cash. I have sold to him the last 2 years and 3 years total.
 
So for someone who is completely out of the loop like me, just to have a ball park idea, how much would you expect to get from a single side shed, brown, 300" bull?
 
These sets are around 300 in. (I think). But the buyers buy by weight. These have decent mass, and each antler weighs roughly 10&1/2 lbs. The last buyer I checked with in our area was paying $13 per pound. So I estimate these sets are roughly $273.00 a set.
