Seller's Story

Samsshop Your expert in skins, furs, antlers, dropper bars, horns, skulls, mounted animals, and everything else for sale. It started over 15 years ago with a small collection of Reebok antlers; this collection gradually expanded to include other types of antlers and later also mounted animals. Occasionally, items were sold that were no longer wanted. The idea of going to trade in these items was already there at the time; however, there was not much interest or demand for it back then. Just a few years later, the interest and demand for these items have increased enormously; in every home magazine, home store, and TV program about living, you'll see a deer antler or fur passing by. The idea has now been developed, resulting in: Samsshop. Sam's (Stuffed Animals & More) It turns out to be a Win-Win situation. We have a constantly changing collection of the most beautiful items, and you have the chance to purchase them! Sam’s
