Looking at HDR (For Purchase)

Post by MREsForDays » Tue May 12, 2020 4:27 pm

Hi there,
Some have seen my latest post about HDRs in the main MRE chat. I didn't (Forgot) to ask if anyone had any for sale here, as I was referring to eBay on the last post.
I just want to gather some prices.

I'm not fussed about whether it is the Yellow Type or the Salmon Type.
I also don't mind if it is partially opened/some parts missing, as long as it has the outer bag so I can tell which menu I am looking to buy some components for.
I am in the UK for reference.
Thanks!

Hey just thought I would add some info for you. The yellow one was changed to orange in 2001 as it looked similar to unexploded cluster munitions, they are really rare nowdays so if you manage to get a yellow one, don't eat it.
Check out my ORP menu spreadsheet: https://bit.ly/2NqUFRX | I have: | British 24HR Box Rations | French RCIRs | Type I EPA |Danish Rations

Yeah, I heard about that. The reason I said I don't mind is because I would like to see what offers there are if anyone has either of them. I'm a little tight on cash at the moment, so a Yellow is probably out of my price range, but I don't want to shut the door completely.

I generally don't eat any of my rations unless they are extremely common or inexpensive, so rest assured if I managed to obtain a yellow one it wouldn't be wasted. Thanks for the info!

Hi, thanks for the info! I have found one in the EU, which means postage is a lot cheaper. Thanks anyway!
