other than this I have a couple of other Singapore rations and menu papers - however due to sloth, a lot of the others are expired by a couple of months

everything is open for exchange or sale: I am leaning more on sale because theres bills to pay and such

Do PM or email me direct: battlemaster365@hotmail.com

Apologies for not giving more details - the words on the ration labels are kinda hard to read.
Anyway i have recieved one interested offer and i do welcome any others

Also have some which expired in sep 2014 but they were kept in a cool dry place so
Shouldnt be a problem for members of this board

Its been so long and offers asides , no commentary from anyone else???

[noderaser]

You know, you can post images directly in your posts, that might get a little more interest over having to view an external site.

Looks interesting. Where are you? How much are you asking for them?

[Victor_88]

Gentlemen:
Seeing that there are some frequently asked questions I might as well get them over with

Where am I at?
I live in this little island called Singapore.

How much do these rations weigh?
The 1 Day packs weight slightly below a kilogram (2.2 pound for the yanks) and for the one meal packs rather less than a kg

How much does it cost to ship to me?
Our national postal service's rates are as follows
http://www.speedpost.com.sg/corporate/s ... vices.html
and shipping costs to the states come in roughly around 50 - 65 united states dollars for a reasonable package (1 to 5 kg)

How can I pay you?
Western union money transfer will be absolutely fine. After we've hashed out the appropriate costs and everything else pictures will be sent out showing package ready to deliver before you transfer.

Okay okay, now HOW MUCH do I have to pay?
Right now I have no idea - these rations have zero value here but so far I've not seen these circulated much outside of our borders.... someone help?

What is still available?
Currently most everything I listed out is still there. Am in negotiations with a interested party for some of them though.

And please any interested parties - do email me battlemaster365@hotmail.com
If you pm me I will have to wait till I get home usually to check it as if I am outside I will have to log in and all
If you send a direct email I can get to the point faster

In the interest of full declaration:
As issued to soldiers here, 24 hour packs are supplemented by an accessory pack COTS items and a pack of instant noodles. Also 3 hexamine fuel tablets and a box of matches. The accessories and noodles are very eagerly consumed by most everyone

The fruit bars and biscuits are the only items not also commonly available here, but don't worry they taste horrible - your not missing out Accordingly for anyone who may wish a complete (as issued) 24 hour pack I will let the person know what's in it so substitutions or other such may be made

I don't see the logic in shipping matches, instant coffee or hexamine fuel all across the ocean and land to wherever you are if you could just walk downstairs and buy some
