Pretty sure it is illegal to sell or barter wild venison or any part of it...ie velvet.
Maybe pop down to your local f + c shop (if run by Asians) and ask them to make an offer.
A friend sold some to Wrightsons(?) about 20 years ago.
wool buyers could be a go
Righto will give it a go and report back. Or else will try Chinatown
Find your local deer farmer, weigh it, put it in with his lot, PGG Wrightsons buyer [or maybe some other Co rep] comes out, takes velvet away and weighs and grades it, cheque back to seller [your local deer farmer] a few weeks later, and he passes on some money to you. Easy peasy! Approx $100 - $120 per kg at the moment depending on grade.

+1 on above
I went an sold some from last month got on average $128 kg
Not many local farms on the coast
Jesus cheers mate could get a decent pay cheque!
Yeah mate grade is the big one if you thinking of selling it have to get it off an have the cut at the top keep all the blood in it an at the right stage in growth as well, 3 of mine where good prime buggers an I took a saw incase got a velvty ................... :yaeh am not durnk:
Oh yeah good to know. Got one big 12ish with big bulging soft tops and a few other bits and bobs.
Bit of cash will be a bonus
Trademe is you friend...as well ;-)
It would only be for display r93, that would be made very clear!
For display in a glass freezer....
Anyway, I'm not putting the stuff on trademe.
But how s velvet meant to be kept? It's in the freezer wrapped up atm

Would have been a nice one in hard antler
Maybe if it had a few more years. Meh
At a guess of the weight , 5 kg ...at $20 kg ... $100 bucks if that ...
