Is €10 for a 24H pack with 2 entrees (=complete ration) normal, or am I selling it under the price?
Sounds as an fair offer to me, btw and €9.99 sound´s better to the buyer :wink:

Is anyone interested in the Dutch LAV ration? (Lange afstand verkenner = Long Distance Scout) used by the Korps Commando Troepen, Luchtmobiel and other Force Recon forces.

And if someone's intrested, for what price would you be intrested.
I'm probably able to get them this week

No own pictures yet, but it's simply a light weight ration with travellunch items.
I am meeting someone with the KCT because AK from romania helped me with some romanian rations, and I promised I'd try to fetch him a LAV ration aswell.

Here is some more info on it.
It's a bit comparable with your EPa leicht I think.. same purpose (long range patrols; while traveling as light as possible..)

KCT is the same as your KSK (Same club, different uniform)

The only forces that get the LAV are the KCT (KSK), Luchtmobiel (Luftlände) and Long range scouts (don't know what to compare them with)
They are hard to get around here, because they are only used for training (getting familiar with..) in advance to Afghanistan. Most of them are being used in Afghanistan at the moment.

On the Dutch site Marktplaats.nl there's a guy selling MREs (2005? €5 p/pack) and French RCIRs (selling as belgian, with date 2010 or 2011 on it, €8)

http://link.marktplaats.nl/272140022 (mre)
http://link.marktplaats.nl/272709997 ( "belgian" / french rations)

They guy is from belgium, but I find these "fair prices" but the MREs are to old for me (like them fresh) and I'm not only a fan of the french ones (only like the cans)
