South African looking for MRE's

Post by lost34 » Tue Oct 13, 2009 2:28 pm

hello to everyone on this very interesting forum!

on a recent working holiday, i bought some civilian MRE's from an army surplus store in New York City, needless to say they are all gone, and i am interested in acquiring more!

unfortunately most retail websites will not ship out of the US (i live in South Africa) and eBay is a problem as well...

my question is whether there are ANY websites that will ship to me? is it best to have someone in the US 'forward' them to me? or should i buy directly from members of this forum? if that is the case would anyone be interested in trading for South African Defense Force rations? (if i manage to acquire some!)

thank you for your time.

Hello lost34 and welcome to forums.

Are there any costums regulations about importing food into South Africa you have to deal with?!

I bet you will find somebody over here that will swap MRE´s into South African ration.

I´m sorry but European customs is a big problem with importing any kind of meat and dairy so we Europeans could only offer you a sale.

To ship a whole case of MRE´s from e.g. Germany to you will cost €45 postage only. Don´t know how much will shipping be from other countries.
