Man, I can't believe I missed out twice now LOL. Its been a hell of a two weeks, worked 120+ hours and did not keep an eye on E-bay except for some bids I put in on a few USMC items. Did get a 1940 tall B unit and a whole set of 44 produced B units with accessory packet, so that makes out for missing out on the Sock Rations I guess. :)

there was no screwing around, when i looked there were about 7 of them and every time i clicked on one it said out of stock

i bought a menu #4 just for funsies. quite surprised that i was even able to.

hadn't heard back from steve yet but that breakfast #4 b unit is what i'm looking forward to, finally completes my set

so looking through the sold listings the guy has sold 13 so far. first batch was $10ea + 6.15 shipping, second batch was $55 + 7.55 shipping

i think you can count on some popping back up from flippers and by people who get them and realize they've got nothing to do with K rations

1 of a kind, folks! Clearly Smitty is lying!
most wanted: RCIR, MCI/B units, IMPs, anything old, and a packet or two of RAFCO soup. PM if you've got these, or anything else to sell that isn't too expensive.
