Wow - how'd you find those? Sounds like a heck of a deal.

I actually came upon them by accident on ebay. I was looking at something else and I checked the similar items link and their they were

The guy had 2 cases up for auction that ended last sunday but, I missed bidding on them

The 2 cases today started a few hours after the other 2 ended last week. The cases only went for $39 and $41 dollars
He list his rations under MEALS READY TO EAT or look for him under his ebay member name tandemjmpr
Maybe he will put up some more. Happy hunting

Sweet...now we just have to worry about the guy who already has bids on each auction...I hear he likes to snipe so we'll have to watch this auction all the way down to the last few seconds.
Anyone else planning on bidding? I sure am. Cases like these don't come up too often so I won't blame any of you guys if you beat me out. Just give me a chance to buy one off you.

I'll be watching them, too. If I can sneak a bid in, I'm going to try.

Good luck, Lifesaver - if I don't get them, hopefully someone else from the forums can. I'd say it's even money that something comes up that causes me to forget about the auction when it comes down.

Score! I contacted the seller and asked him if he had any more EPas to sell and if he'd put a buy-it-now on them. He said yes and just put one up for $60. It's not $45 deal that madcapmagician and dermeister025 got but $60 for 6 EPas is definitely a great deal in my opinion!
