Russian IRP prices

Post by TechManDan » Thu Jun 02, 2016 2:00 pm

What happened to the irp prices on ebay? It seems like all the sellers significantly their prices! I was able to get 3 packs w/shipping for about $70 a couple months ago and now they're over $100?! I was able to get 5 pack's for that price and now those are going for over $150 :evil:

supply and demand... :(

it's not just the Russian, it's rations across the board. Last time I bought MCW's, I got 4 for $50, now they go for $25 each when you can find them. FSR's are thru the roof, LRP's are going in the triple digits per case.....it's madness.

Prices from Russian sellers are higher? You talk about them or resellers in USA?

I don't look on ebay much but from time to time I see them on .ru army shops and the price is same.

Thx, we also got some severly damage over here. Our cars got dents from the hail stones so they look like a golf ball now, the garden furniture got damaged, all the plants (apple trees, wine yards) lost their fruits, the fields got smashed... etc.

But yes, compared to these, we are happy :D

Wow Housil, it looks like you have had some exciting weather.
After an extremely long hot summer (we had a week of +35c in April) eastern Australia is copping a drenching this weekend. Back where I am from they are copping extreme storm warnings, huge surf and flash flooding. Where I am now its just heavy rain ( I am a good three days drive from the Gold Coast ) from the same system. It is so wet my neighbors dog is sleeping under the awning of my camper because its the only dry spot he can find.

FYI guys, yes the IRP prices have gone up crazy high by the time you figure in shipping. But there is relief in sight for those of you coming to the meetup.

The guy I was getting my IMPs from has 2 shipping containers en route from Eastern Europe full of Military Surplus. In one of the containers is a pallet with 60 5 count cases of IRPs. I have already paid him for them. I will be bringing them to the meetup.

My cost was $22 each. For MREInfo.com members that make it to the meetup, I will be selling them for $25 each. Limit 3 per person until that Sunday afternoon, then you can have as many as you like.
Have German,Russian,Canadian,Lithuanian,Dutch, Israeli,Spanish,HDRs,LRPs,French,US RCWs,FSRs,Italian,Croatian, Polish,Aussie, Czech, Malaysian, Swedish, Australian and Norwegian Arctics.
