Good to hear from someone who ordered from that site, makes me comfortable with putting in an order. So, I ordered two Faust Coffee cans from them. I don't ever open original rations except to preserve/ stabilize them, however, I might open one of these cans and try the coffee. Have to wait for a special event to make it worth it. On a side note, I made several reproductions of the Faust Coffee tins at one point, might make a few more now that I have an original to photograph the reproduction with.

they've put a few up on ebay this week

well, i assume it's them, the crate in the ebay pictures is the same one as on paratrooper

somebody must have found a hoard of the things

Yes, I think they found a case of them. Someone on a facebook group posted about these, which is where I found out about them. As for the e-bay listing, it does appear to be the exact same crate and contents, also shipping is the same. I wonder how much the e-bay listing will sell for? At $150 shipped for the two cans I bought, $75 each is not bad in my book and I bet the e-bay listing goes for around $150 per can.
