MOST OF MRE'S you see on ebay are Government issue and can be acquired by a unit coming out of the field and having left overs that end up on the maket by someone digging them out of the dumpster or they can be purchase at the commissary on most military bases also over runs from the manfacture or defects get aution of to companies like long life foods , major surplus ext....... tons of army and navy shops have them and gun shows!

Hello CID_AGENT - welcome to the forums!
Very true - there are lots of very legitimate places (Ebay included) where MREs can be purchased. All these people complaining about "illegal MRE sales" need to go pound sand.

It never hurts to have a friend in ROTC that can easily get a case for you...
It's just time before he can sneak it out and get it to you...

I know that MRE cases have reached some high prices on ebay as of late. But if you find a bargain price.............don't forget the new ebay/paypal coupon codes C1-HOLIDAY2005 for 10% off up to $25.00. Expires 11/30. Just got two cases for $95 and was able to knock $9.50 off the top.

Yes, you know it's a sad day for MRE prices on Ebay when CAJUN CLARA has some of the more reasonable prices out there.
Her prices may be high and her use of ALL CAPS MIGHT BE PAINFUL TO READ, but at least she's reliabl in terms of inventory and price.
