I am not a collector, just a guy who occasionally eats MRE's when a Marine buddy tosses a few my way. I found these in my fathers gear after he died. I have two Cadillac Products Inc., 1- Menu 5 Beef Stew and 1-Menu 10 Meatballs in BBQ sauce. These bags are in sealed excellent shape. Next are two unopened (but bags have cracks) Southern Packaging & Storage
1-Menu 12 Beef, ground with spiced sauce and 1-Menu 8 Beef, diced with gravy. Lastly An opened (no bag) menu 2 Ham and Chicken loaf that was used for display, but all items are accounted for and in excellent shape. I don't have the box, but Think it was dated 1983. I don't mess with Ebay and would rather just sell these at a reasonable price here. What's reasonable?
Thanks, Dan

Hi snackdaddy,

I would pay 25 USD for your four nice MREs, but with shipping to Germany in total I guess it would cost at least 60 USD, and that unfortunately is very expensive

. MREs packed by Cadillac Products are scarce, I especially like them, because they remind me to the first MREs I have ever seen. Good times

!

So long mreheater72

Thanks mreheater72 for the input. I was thinking that they might be worth $20. Too bad about the postage to Germany.

Hey Snackdaddy - I'll take them off your hands for $20. I live in central Florida, and I'd pay up to $15 shipping. Only issue is - I don't get paid until Monday.(actually Sunday but I cannot deposit until Monday.)

What payment method did you have in mind?
