Shipping MREs to Canada: Success!
Posted: Mon Nov 09, 2009 5:10 pm
Hi folks, I recently bought a B case of 2008 MREs off of ebay and they have successfully been delivered, across the border, to my door. Despite the less than positive reputation of UPS standard shipping for international shipments, I didn't even get charged for customs brokerage fees. In fact, Canada Customs left everything untouched! 
The seller wrapped the case in thick brown paper and marked "camping meals" on it which seems to have done the trick. So, for any other fellow Canadians out there wondering about shipping MRE's over the border, it can be done. I'm too lazy to post an image right now but I'd be happy to if anyone wants to see proof..
P.S. Ebay seller socalmustangs51 is definitely recommended.
