WTB: American MRE's - Case B

Post by ToxicCarbon » Tue Dec 18, 2012 5:46 am

Hi Guys,

I'm after a recent case of 'B' MRE's from someone who is willing to ship to Australia. I had a contact in Germany who will unfortunately no longer ship to Aussie and my contact in Australia puts his markup on top of what it costs him. Trying to cut out the middle man 8)

As a sweetener I can grab some Aussie CR1M's off ebay and send them at cost price to whoever sells me a case if they're interested. They seem to be coming up a lot on Aussie ebay. Expensive though, usually close to $50 a pop.

Let me know if you're interested.

Cheers
TC

Do you have a postcode there mate. Also I did some shipping calculations and if you were to go with US Postal Service Priority Mail it would run $195.80 and UPS woud run between $350.00 or $360.00 for shipping air freight. Not sure on DHL. Lastly, how much are you willing to shelve out (base price) for a case?

That might help out just a wee bit. :wink:

If do you don´t get any further contact, I´d like to swap for Aussie rats.
Usually everybody pay´s it´s own postage, just have to agree about how many Aussie rats will equal a case of MREs.

Treesuit my postcode is 6348 (Western Australia). When I was ordering from Germany postage was $50 and cost per case was $100. So $150 all up. It came via DHL. When that contact dried up, I managed to order some from a fellow Aussie for $50 postage and $200 per case. I think buying from the US might prove too expensive by the sound of it?

Housil, I'm always up for a trade. I'll PM you shortly.
