I came across this trap at a local junk store. I was going to buy it, but the price seemed to be a little high. I don't think I'd us it, just as a collectors item. What do you think?

I did find a Victor Jump Trap with a Stop Loss Spring. I bought that one for $3.50. I haven't seen too many Jump Traps with the stop loss spring.

Funny thing too. I saw a old #2 Victor Coilspring with about 3 feet of chain and a drag attached and the price on it was $75.00!!!

Wow, maybe we are wasting our time spending hours in the rain and snow to catch some fur. Maybe we should just take our traps and market them to the Yuppies for big money!

This was in an antique shop so most of the people shopping there really have no idea of the value of these traps.
