Default How much is a cape worth?

I just sold my mule deer cape and elk cape to a taxidermist. I got $30 for the deer and $70 for the bull. Both were nice mature animals and the capes were in excellent shape. Is that a good price for those?

Depends on the neck size and hair and general condition.
