Cheapest box I can find in the UK is £120
Ouch. That's expensive! That's got to be around $150 USD? Approximately.

Oh yeah, at least. Can buy single packs for about £14, which is going to be close to 20 bucks. Not sure what postage is like from the US but if anyone finds a cheap box keep me in mind :D

9 year old cases of MRE Star meals for $69 each? Old enough to be way past prime, too recent to be collectable. You can do better for $69 (I'm including shipping).

My God, think of how much constipation 512 cases could produce.
Really? What's your source? Hook me up!! :wink:

The cheapest cases I'm seeing around $90 including shipping.

Or is it a matter of searching around and getting lucky?
Getting lucky. I jumped on a deal for $40 shipped mre cases two years ago ("handled roughly" shape, contents were fine).

I think Canadian Trucker is the only person that could handle the local pickup
