At
Ebay Germany is a new bag design MRE.
I asked the seller for more to sale and he answered to me, he can get some more "in a while".
It´s me bidding on

so don´t let us "push up" the price needlessly - he will get some more.

Very cool! I wondering when we'd first start seeing the new MREs pop up on eBay.

In that case the best way is: Exercise patience! In one, latest two years that new design MREs and consequently their price is as usual as of the current MREs!

How come these show up first in Germany, or have they already shown up in the US?

I guess most and newest MRE´s going into combat action to A-stan and Iraq - via Germany/
Rammstein
So that´s why sometimes new things came up at (Ebay) Germany first.
Also
troops from Germany going to Iraq or return from Iraq back to Germany

They actually already annouced the new designs and have the specs for them published in the latest MRE packaging manuals. Here's the page I put together for them with all the links:
