I request a down payment of approx. 50% before starting a project (helps cover cost of materials etc.) and request the remainder of the balance at either time of pickup or within two weeks after the project is completed. Accepted payment methods are either card (with credit card there is a small processing fee)  cash, online bank transfer( bank transfer has smaller processing fee than card payment) or a cleared check. There is also an additional state mandatory 8% sales tax charge for NY residents.

A few smaller knife cuts or shot holes in a skin are not unusual, but if an animal has extensive damage (from skinning, shot damage, fighting etc.) I prefer to inspect it in person (or send good photos) and price it by custom quote. For whitetails and some other species it is often a better option to get a replacement cape.

The starting price for a custom habitat piece is 25% of the mount cost. For example, the price for a life-size red fox mount is $1,500, the habitat piece would be an additional 25% ($375).  Snow and ice highlights,  panels, engravings, pedestal bases, etc are done by custom quote in addition to the starting price of the habitat.  The price of a base and habitat setup can change very quickly, for example, the base/habitat for a smaller life-size mammal will run say $300 for a wall hung display, versus if you choose to go with a  floor display complete with octagon hardwood base it can be substantially more.
