I asked just to be sure, and they confirmed that they can and will ship the Brit packs to the US. They shipped the package fast too, ordered on the 16th and arrived here A couple of days ago.
How bad was the shipping, and did customs have any issue?

Shipping was a bit brutal, I think around $110, but the ration packs are heavy, so I guess I'm not surprised. No issues with customs at all. You place the order (I used PayPal) with the regular shipping charge, then they contact you shortly after with the additional shipping for international. Great customer service, and very fast for international shipping. Since shipping is high, I'd save up and place a big order to make it worth it. I'll certainly buy from them again (after I save up a bit more, haha).

Ouch!! That does hurt.

Yeah, I could see that being a group buy kinda thing. But it is supply and demand. They are one of the few willing to ship here, so...

Yep, that's why I went ahead and took the leap, most of the other places wouldn't ship to the US.
