Dare to Bowhunt Auction

[BearOmni]

I'll go 800.

When is payment due from the winning bidder?

I sent Lammie an email to find out if the winner will be booking the rest of their trophies on the 2008 or 2009 rates.

Bobby, Russell is pretty much on target with the airfare prices. Our airfare was $1,700.00 because we received a group rate.

Payment will need to be made within 10 days after the closing of the auction; preferably by Paypal or credit card. Please contact me if you prefer to pay by another method.

I know on our safari, the costs were spread out. After the initial payment for this hunt, you will have a while before your airfare is due. I am not sure if Lammie will require a deposit on the other trophies or not. Our concession did not. Your next payment will probably be for your trophies and tips, etc. after your hunt. If you have your animals dipped and shipped, your next payment will be around 4-6 months. If your taxi does not require a deposit, ours did not. Once your trophies arrive, you can have them mounted as your budget allows. Prior to our hunt, I did not realize the costs were so spreadout. Of course, all concession are different.

I can definitely agree with that! I was prepared to pay the taxidermist over there for my "dip & ship" before I left. I was also prepared to pay the shipping company here to coordinate the process. All these payments are 3-6 months out. Personally, I wish it was all faster!

I have to agree with you on that Oscar, my return is about 4 months. Not sure if I can wait that long to put my hands back on the kudu. Bob

Glad to see a good response to the auction! We will not require any money up front from the winner. The hunt will take place in Zululand (Gagu), however if the winner would like to hunt 2 areas, additional days can be added to the hunt check our pricing on our website (www.daretobowhunt.co.za) and the pricing will be off the 2009 pricelist. Airfare can vary from $1500 - $2300. Depends on the route you take and how early you book. I know Delta has been cheap before but I am not sure how they look for 2009. Yes, the payment is spaced out, airfare is booked whenever you are ready to book it, you only pay us after the hunt, and taxidermists are only paid in about 4-6 months after the hunt. Please post any questions here. We will get to them as soon as we can!
