I don't know what that weight/size calculation thing was all about.
I just received the box (UK ORP Box A with menus 1-10, PD 05/2016) a couple of hours ago and I've opened it. Everything looks OK.
The ORP cardboard boxes with their clear tape it's exactly 100% tamper proof, but they all seemed unopened.
I opened up the box with Menu 1 and it looked pretty stuffed and I couldn't immediately tell something was missing. It IS a vegetarian ration though, so you never know if they only go after the meat products, but at least it looked fine.
Not gonna open all of them and look.
If you see the photo in the post I made in the "Postman thread" you see the ration numbers and the UK Flag etc on the boxes. However when I opened the large box, they were all facing down, and the only thing showing was the side with "Nutritional information", so maybe the seller was hoping a quick glance inside the box wouldn't attract the attention of any curious carrier or customs people?
In any case, it seems this box got here without being scavenged.
