Chinese rations trade for mountaineering boots

Post by ak70g2 » Tue Oct 25, 2011 1:43 pm

Because I had a little chat with our fellow Cracker, after a little research, i'll make an offer for a trade. I offer a complete 10 chinese rations set, the ones in the picture, including the "oxigen enriching ration" for the troops in the Tibet plateau, for a pair of Lowa Combat Boots GTX, UK size 9 / eur size 43,5. I'll make this offer for UK because it seems to be the lowest price in the entire Europe, in Germany is almost twice. So, the lowest prices was found by Cracker here:

Rations are already packed in the cardboard box, ready to be shipped along with the second parcel for Housil. It need only the receiver adress.

This offer is still valid, with a change: the big green ration will be changed for an 24 hrs romanian prototype. The old batch of chinese are gone, a new one came, but is no big noodles ration among them. The other 9 are as in pictures.

He's asking someone in the UK specifically to buy a pair of boots available at a good price only in the UK and trade those boots for the rations. I don't think he's accepting cash offers from folks here in the states.

From the US, I'd like to trade for a pair of Danner RAT boots, temperate model, US size 10 or 10.5. I want the temperate version because of Goretex lining, I'll use them in the winter and cold weather. Recently I saw on Ebay a nice pair, which selled with 150$. As Ruleryak said, I want the boots, not the money, because I spend a lot of time in the mountains, on rock, cliffs and also in some mountains streams, I've destroyed some Bates desert boots and I need very good mountaineering boots.

If someone want to search the Ebay and get a pair, or have other options to get, I'd love to have this model of boots, seems that just Danner RAT and those Lowa boots can cope the terrain in Afghanistan very well, and I work in an very similar environment.

I'm open to proposals, I'll add some other rations, my romanian prototypes, some spanish and some russians in the future, if you want for. I'm sure that I'll be satisfied and the other trader too. :D
