Hello all,
I've posted a few reviews here and there over the years and have tried several international rations. I've had numerous MREs, FSRs, French RCIRs, British 24-Hour, Canadian IMPs. I also have a Norwegian ration which I have yet to try.
I would really love to try out a German EPa as well as an Australian CR1M. I occassionally look through Ebay for these. I could kick myself for missing out on the CR1M a few years ago.
If anyone has one they would be willing to sell, please PM me. I'm located near Philadelphia, PA.
Thanks,
hannonmc

hannonmc,
Getting an Australian CR1M or PR1M from anywhere except someone in the Australian Forces is like trying to find a unicorn. I've talked back and forth with yt subscribers and friends in AU and they are just not available. They do have a commercial version called Hungerbuster but it is not the whole or complete ration as a PR1M/CR1M. There is a New Zealand Ration on ebay that is pretty close to a PR1M but the shipping is pretty pricey.

Keep an eye on the Australian eBay site. There was a guy selling all the various menu's. They're pretty pricey though. They go for about $50 AUD a pop and if you're in the states you have to tack on another $20 or so (Guessing) in postage. $70 for a ration is a bit expensive for me. I got one off a guy at work that was in the Army reserves. He had it rolling around in the trunk of his car and was happy to let me have it

I bet it´s MUCH more than just $20!ToxicCarbon wrote: you have to tack on another $20 or so (Guessing) in postage.

Re: Looking to buy: German EPa II, III or Australian CR1M
Last time I priced shipping 1 PR1M a year or so ago it was over $50 just for shipping. So far every ration I've imported cost more to ship than the actual cost of the rations themselves.
