I've had pretty good success getting Russian rations. Looking for the rest of the MREs on my list.
Because everything tastes good when you're hungry!

I think I've seen that site before. I emailed them some questions about shipping about a month ago but still haven't gotten a response.FREMONT wrote:This website is for a Military Surplus store located in the UK (and they ship to the US!), they sell British, French 24 hour rations and Dutch MRE main meals. I never ordered from them so I don't know how much shipping will actually cost you.

So what happens is you place your order and complete the checkout. They will then send you an email as to what the shipping charges are and give you the opportunity to accept them or cancel your order. If you accept the shipping charges, you will have your rations in roughly a week. The more rations you buy, the less the shipping cost is per item. Be advised though, the Dutch rations have a tendency to get screwed up in shipment.MAbreuRN wrote:I think I've seen that site before.

Are the shipping cost fair? After the whole "Brexit" situation it may seem prices and shipping may go up or down.BlackDogBob wrote:So what happens is you place your order and complete the checkout.

I guess it would have to due with them selling the individual meals rather than entire rations themselves and the fact they're packaged in the Dutch language. Or confusing packaging maybe?MAbreuRN wrote:BlackDogBob wrote:So what happens is you place your order and complete the checkout.

Thanks for the insight. That makes me feel better. I thought I was on the "pay no mind" list. How do they mess with the Dutch rations? Any insight as to why?
No. The bags were torn.FREMONT wrote:I guess it would have to due with them selling the individual meals rather than entire rations themselves and the fact they're packaged in the Dutch language. Or confusing packaging maybe?MAbreuRN wrote:BlackDogBob wrote:
