Hi, looking to buy K-rations in good condition unopened or will also buy opened as long as they are complete and in good order.
Also looking for C-rations WW2 or 1951-53 with Cigs. Will buy or can trade Australian 2018 CR1M Menu E, can possibly get other menus.
Look forward to seeing whats available.
Thanks,
Mick

Hi Mick, being honest, that will be a tough trade to get.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/303496430000
these two will sell at 3-$400+

Thanks Viper,
The trade was only a secondary option and I agree and may not interest anyone but was just an option or an addition to a sale. More than happy to pay for the K-ration and may bid on one of those you linked but have seen better condition sell for less on ebay recently but didnt bid as I was waiting on a private sale that fell through.

cool. a cr1m for a k ration is possible for sure, but it would not be in the condition you are looking for.
I just sold a busted up k for $50 and am slightly surprised it got that high
i have one more, but will likely keep it.
it is missing a lot of the items

yes i am afraid he is correct on the trade aspect of the k ration being in good condition. you can however get lucky on some decent condition rations like you said.
Stay vigilant with your ebay searches and also what I found is that there are usually MORE ww2 rations and items then the ebay search feature will list in the results.
The way I have found many k ration and c ration items from ww2 on ebay is looking at a related item such as a fuel tablet and then looking at the recommended items
scrolling bar just below the actual item listing information.
Cheers and good luck!
