What stuff is he leaving out? I know they always say that the heaters have been removed, but that is not so, they just put that in there to be legal for listing on ebay. I ordered my last case of MREs from a guy that had that listed on his sale details but he sent me an outside email saying that he did not really take out the heaters, he said he just had to put that on there as a condition to sell the MREs on ebay.

Oh, neat!

I just thought they took em out because of air-ship restrictions.

kman.dirtydave. i got my two a cases today from ebay seller rockitmail2 the cases were still sealed heaters not removed. mfg 4304 temp sensors good. he does tape paper on the top so no body can tell what they are.
i took a little longer to get than i expected but i was the first to buy from his three day listing. i think he waited untill they all sold so he only had to make one trip to ups.

later,kent

I got my two cases from '03 yesterday, one A, one B... The menue's aren't as good as they used to be, in my opinion.

hi guys. rockitmail2 is back on ebay with 29.99 a and b cases .the closer you are to arizona the cheaper shipping will be. seems like everyone else is raising the prices weekly

his cases are around 300 of 2004 so insp date is 2007

I wouldn't get too excited about this price. This guy is one of those shady ebay sellers who jacks up the price of shipping in the shipping calculator. For example, I put in my zip code and it said $29 for shipping to me. Then I went to ups.com, put in the same information and got $20 for shipping. That means he's tacking on an extra $9 or so.

So it's not really $29.99 a case (reduced for quick sale! hah! should read "price reduced, shipping inflated!") - more like $38.99 a case - an average price. But because of his little trick with shipping, I wouldn't trust the guy.

And don't even get me started on the other jackass on ebay who's selling MREs for about $30/case (lowest price on ebay! - he claims)...but who has $30 flat rate shipping. Right....what a great deal.

Yes, I hate these kind of people who inflate the shipping...I MEAN REALLY HATE...

kman, thats why i added the part about living closer to arizona. i bought two cases from him sunday 59.98 plus 28.02 for shipping to 80465 came to 88.00 total . now heres the strange part . his shipping calculator says 19.03=1 case 28.02=2 cases and 59.05 =3 cases doesnt have much logic to it but the only deal was to buy 2 cases at a time. on the other hand the cajun lady wants 16.00 per case for shipping but wants 40.00 per case for her 2007 cases. that would be 112.00 for 2 cases so i still saved 24.00 . if any of you guys find a better deal post it . the great thing about sites like this to help each other to learn and save. Im retired and always surfing survival sites and ebay so if i find a better price on mres or a great deal on something else ill let you guys know.

ps kman if you dont want me to post the deals i find just let me know and i will stop
