I've had very good luck with Parcel Force as well. I've never had any issues with them.

surplusandoutdoors.com I believe is using the Parcel Force. Speaking of which, they have just updated their inventory, all 24h british menus are back in stock.

Yep, that's where I've dealt with them. They always arrive quickly and in good shape.

That's great about the new inventory, thanks for the update! Last time I checked they were a little picked over. I'm glad they got more! :D

Just wanted to update this thread. Delivery via MyHermes express takes 4 days from the UK to your door in US. In the US the DHL will bring your package. I was a bit surprised myself, since usually it's the USPS.

Good deal! Sounds exactly like Parcel Force UK. What is the date code on the UK rations you got?

Good buy! 08/2015 these are the "newer" ORP's as the ration has "24 Hour Ration pack" in the French language on the front of it too.
