Re: MRE's Seized in Louisville , KY

Re: MRE's Seized in Louisville , KY

Hi elandi, I never thought that one could order something, never receive it and still pay for it. If in the "FAQ", vendors stated that, "if your stuff doesn't get to you; we keep your money and you get the empty box. No one would order with that disclaimer. No other business is run that way. Mike

Re: MRE's Seized in Louisville , KY

Hi Bart, I wasn't planning on mentioning who the vendor was. I guess you beefed on yourself. I spent $265 because I relied on your knowledge in exporting and importing. I have no animosity towards you but PayPal charges for a service and admits they make money on the exchange rate. I got an unsigned...

Re: MRE's Seized in Louisville , KY

Hi Smitty, I have ordered many many MRE's without any problems. As importing meat into the US is prohibited - lucky you :wink: You can appeal against their actions if you think, it´s incorrect. H, I'm not an importer nor a smuggler, so I rely on the vendor. If you want to see imported meat in the U...

Re: MRE's Seized in Louisville , KY

Hi Smitty, I have ordered many many MRE's without any problems. Except they did once open a Spanish ration, just the bag. I ordered 6 MRE's and received 1 open bag containing seafood chowder , #6. I also got an accessory pack, veg crackers, drink, spoon and an open, pound cake I was confused until I...

Re: 2017 Spanish Armed Forces Individual Combat Ration Lunch Menu B5 Review

Hi, I haven't tried my B5 yet, so I can only comment on this review. Usually the cartilage inside the squid is not eaten and along with the beak which is discarded, during cleaning. After seeing Steve1989's Spanish A2 review, I looked for "stuffed sqiud in Ink and found this on Amazon, "Chipirones e...
