What is more expensive sable or mink?

A shopper will find that sable is more expensive than chinchilla. The quality and cut of a piece will generally determine price, and there is a range of prices. Assuming you're looking for a coat and you're not buying faux fur, you can expect to pay several thousand to several tens of thousands of dollars for a chinchilla or sable coat. Comparison is generally a matter of taste rather than price, but the chinchilla will set you back less.

Most chinchilla and sable fur that is on the market is ranch raised. There is some backlash against the use of these furs, and the issues should be noted. As objectionable as trapping may be, animals that are raised on a ranch are said by some to suffer greatly in captive conditions. A shopper would be advised to become educated and to make wise or at least informed choices.
