I don't want to brag, but cashiers are always checking me out. power_struggle55 private msg quote post Address this user
since it was easier for me I simply bought off ebay, last year had seller wrap, include a note and ship to who I got. probably going to do the same this year. especially considering 99% of my comics are in a storage unit (yes temp controlled). so unless i have something they'd like on me...or have the time. will be ebay or amazon once again

last year was my first year doing this. I had joined the site the year before but had just missed the cutoff (I think people were just getting the gifts). I told myself...if they do it again the following year join. Glad I did...so made a note to watch out for this year. I hadnt even been on the board in a few weeks and randomly thought...check and see if the exchange is on. so almost missed it

i hope whoever i get has an easy preference list and like what i get them (my family tells me i am great at gift giving as I have the ability to zero in on the perfect gift when I know enough) and whoever gets me.....hope my preferences is easy enough. if you have questions ask Stantheman to relay question

last year I really loved the gift i got (Absolute Carnage #1 9.8 cbcs graded) and the person I sent a gift to loved theirs (a book on the art of Todd McFarland and a supergirl coloring book. they told me they wanted something involving him and an adult coloring book)

im going to buy the gift within a week or two of getting the member. depending on if midtowncomics.com has a good sale starting tomorrow (for self) or where I get the gift

i wonder if this year Ill be able to wait till christmas to open. last year waited till almost a week before. I was down in the dumps getting covid (it didnt affect my christmas plans thankfully) so opened it to brighten mood (plus others were doing so. told myself only open if someone else did)

Sure, why not! Since I am trying to downsize the collection, I am looking for one or two nice books rather than quantity. I like classic good-girl art, or just something out of the ordinary. It could even be a foreign edition comic.

All emails have gone out!

Please make sure you wrap your present, if possible, but definitely include your boardie name so your recipient knows who sent the gift!

You have 5 weeks to mail your gift! Please do not delay!

Save your tracking information, we know how the USPS is!

Whenever you decide to open your presents, take pictures and post them here so we can all enjoy the fun.
If you would like me to ask questions about your Secret Santa's requests, or relay further information you want to provide to your Santa, I will be glad to do so. Just PM me. I am happy to help!

Happy Holidays!!!

Ho, Ho, Ho, LET'S GO!!!

UPDATE:
Someone has said they would exchange with the one that missed the deadline so we are good to go!!!

I have 1 boardie who missed the deadline, but it’s the holidays and I don’t want to exclude anyone
Is there someone who would take on a second Santa to exchange with?
Please Pm me
Thanks
