[ARCHIVED THREAD] - FYI - MARPAT BDU's, Hats on eBay today.....

A fresh batch of auctions for the new MARPAT's were posted today.

There was a few sets of MARPAT BDU's. These are the real deal made by Propper Intl. Not the cheap Hong Kong knock-offs. One complete set went for $125.00 "Buy it Now" and the other sets are getting up there fast. Anything that was listed with the "Buy It Now" option was gone.

I put in a bid on one set. They are very cool. I already won auctions for a Woodland MARPAT and Desert MARPAT boonie hat.

Just need the boots and I'm good to go.

Hey,

I was gonna buy all that stuff, double the price, and sell it in EE. So much for that idea. [rolleyes] [:D]

No doubt! Figure a set of BDU's brand new costs maybe $40 total... tops and they're getting minimum $125.00 for them.

Boonie hats are $15.00 and they're getting $45.00+ for them.

200% return on your money isn't a bad investment.

A set of MCCUs and a cover were 66.75 at MCCS, earlier this spring. The Boonie cover is another 7.50 or so.

I think a company like Nametapes.com or 1800nametapes or something like that is making them. I know a few of my Marines went that route to get their name tapes, but I just got them from the MCCS, it took like 3 weeks, instead of the normal 5 working days for the old style ones, but I got enough for 4 sets.
