Bummed...

Post by DIRTYDAVE » Wed Jun 08, 2005 1:17 am

It is time for me to buy a few cases of MREs and I just got done looking at Ebay and I saw nothing other than high priced auctions... :cry:

I saw that title that said "bummed" and though...uh oh....But, in a way, if you bought some of those highly inflated RAT's then you would have gotten bummed.

There are two auctions that just went up today for 4 cases total of MREs - 2 A's and 2 B's. He wants $32.50 for each case (a good price) but shipping is fixed at $22.50. So that's $55 per case. I guess that's ok - maybe you can make him an offer on all four cases and maybe save some shipping.

Thanks Kman, but those auctions are no longer avaialbe. I was bidding on one of them I think. The $23.50 one sounds familiar.

Bummer...looks like maybe someone got to them ahead of you and made the guy an offer on the side.

Hopefully someone will come along and try to undercut some of the people who are selling their MREs for too exorbitant of a price and I can stock up this time. 8)

You'd hope so, DirtyDave - but then again, hurricane season is just starting to heat up and I'll bet if anything, it drives the price of MREs up for a few months. Of course, if a hurricane does hit an area hard, then MREs will flood into the areas with the federal assistance and then a month or so later, they'll start flooding back onto ebay with cheap prices like they did last year.

It appears that $61.11 per cs of MREs in the best I can come up with ( $45 buy it now with $16.11 shipping to me). Oh well, I guess the $25 per cs I got my last ones for is long gone... :cry: :cry: :cry:
