Author Gold Pile Posted November 15, 2017 Author Posted November 15, 2017 With GP, they may or may not have to be breathing too IMO furs are yesteryear.. I don't have a problem with buying them or selling them but most people don't really wear them anymore.. so selling them consignment will mean he will be stuck with a bunch of them. So far I've always drawn the line at breathing. Of course I've never worked in a funeral home, so I haven't been put to the test yet. 1
Highndry Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 Did you read the OP? These coats have scored me one date already. If I could find Carhill's Russian women, I could score more dates. Otherwise I'd have to do what Art Critic says....sell them to a fur store. Using material goods and wealth to score dates is not a good look. It's like "hey, f*** me and I'll give you a fur coat!"
mercy Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 Donate them to a No Kill animal shelter. The scared animals will love the snuggle. And you'll get a tax deduction! And maybe meet a nice animal lover! Win win!

bluefeather Posted November 16, 2017 Posted November 16, 2017 If you are a female in my dating age range (18 to 80), I may have a coat for you. I most certainly am not! Was just wondering if you had a few or a whole closet full

Author Gold Pile Posted November 16, 2017 Author Posted November 16, 2017 Ah, didn't realize you were trying to score dates with these items. I'll admit to trying nearly everything to score dates. I dated a Nun, went on a seal hunt, painted a dog, and spit on a squirrel. Gifting of fur coats to score is nearly the tamest tactic I've ever used. 1
Author Gold Pile Posted November 17, 2017 Author Posted November 17, 2017 I rattled my network. I've been fixed up with a Russian Woman for a date on Saturday. I expect a first date with someone I've never met, won't be a slam dunk on the first meet up. If things look really, really good, I'll gift her a mink coat. Maybe I can sweep her off her feet. Otherwise it may have to wait till the 2nd date. They tell me she speaks English well, is a pretty blonde, and at age 34...is in my preferred dating age range of 18 to 80. They also tell me that dating Russians to leverage mink coats for sex, is only something that I would do. I cleaned up their wording to eliminate the profanity, but that is basically what they meant. She of course doesn't know about the mink coats. I'll be glad to be rid of these coats. I'll be even gladder if it leads to consummated dates.

Author Gold Pile Posted November 18, 2017 Author Posted November 18, 2017 You sound like a bloody hilarious date. Perhaps you are interested? :love:How is your winter coat situation?
chinadiary Posted November 19, 2017 Posted November 19, 2017 Perhaps you are interested? :love:How is your winter coat situation? I'm good for coats thanks. Plus I prefer fur on a living animal. But god, if you can make me laugh in the midst of heartbreak, your dates are in for a fun evening!

But god, if you can make me laugh in the midst of heartbreak, your dates are in for a fun evening! I my experience, living animals make poor coats. One actor infamously tried to make underwear out of a living gerbil. I'm sorry you're in the midst of heartache. You already know that time really does heal. In the meantime take heart that this pain wasn't due to someone's death. A small but valid consolation.
Furious Posted November 19, 2017 Posted November 19, 2017 I purchased a bankrupt little business. I was mainly after their industrial machinery useful in heavy industry. Ya just never know what you're gonna find. The inventory inexplicably included elephant Tusks and Mink coats. Because of legalities, I immediately called the authorities. The former owner may be in trouble over the Tusks. The authorities seized the tusks and I won't be compensated. They said the mink coats are mine to keep. The majority of women in my preferred dating age range (18 to 80) would be revolted by the gift of a mink coat. Up till the early 1980s, mink was a status symbol. So I presented one coat to a slender, fit retiree. I invited her on a date. The date went very well and I spent the evening at her place. Retirees worth dating are not as plentiful as you may think. I don't see another one in my current circle that is worth it. I'm not sure what to do with the coats. Some say selling them would perpetuate the market in fur coats. Of course it seems wasteful to destroy clothing that is still serviceable. It was made, the critters are gone, what's done is done. I considered the salvation army, but I think homeless people in Mink coats sends the wrong message. They'd probably sell them anyway. If anyone sells them, it should be me. Anyhow, it's a weird situation, I'm not sure what I'll do. Glad your date with a fit retiree went well and she appreciated the mink coat. As to your quandary about what to do with your inventory of fur coats I have a suggestion. Beards are quite trendy these days and fur beards might be the next big thing. 2
mortensorchid Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 THere are organizations in your city (unless you live in a rural area) that will sell used fur coats if you are squeamish about giving them to others as gifts. See if they will take them. I knew a woman years ago who was active with some organization that sold used furs - pimps would come in and buy them for their women, btw. Otherwise sell them on EBay. Elephant tusks? Not sure about that but you could probably sell those on EBay as well.
Fleur de cactus Posted November 20, 2017 Posted November 20, 2017 Just sell them. This is the right season for such chic gift. Some people will by them. N Marcus is selling them. Use ebay or amazon.

Keep a girl warm on a cold winter night.
