I'm still struggling at this point. My recipient seem to have most everything as best I can guess, and I didn't get much of a hint after searching through their posts for hours. I've got a feeler or two out, but I may have to go with a Bett's Gift Certificate lacking further information. I'll keep searching though, that's the fun of it, getting to know your recipient better!
WANTED

#92 IT Portfolio (or the #95 IT to swap for the #92 that I have)

YOu made me laugh! I always enjoy reading your posts and just finished looking through your collection thread post!Maybe I am, and maybe I'm not, so that list might come in handy..... or it might not.
So, I am definitely ahead of the game this year. My SS items have been purchased and delivered and are all packed up ready to go.
If you are in this SS thread and you have mentioned any book recently in passing or in your own thread or ANYWHERE on this site, please DON'T go and buy it before xmas - it may be on it's way to you already....
"A real limited edition, far from being an expensive autograph stapled to a novel, is a treasure. And like all treasures do, it transforms the responsible owner into a caretaker, and being a caretaker of something as fragile and easily destroyed as ideas and images is not a bad thing but a good one...and so is the re-evaluation of what books are and what they do that necessarily follows." - Stephen King
I just got my stuff today! Being shipped to me then to my person! Hope to have it in the mail in a week!!!!! It was so damm cool... I got one myself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hoping mine arrives soon. I have half the gift already, but I'm still waiting for pt. 2.
I haven't even started yet, luckily still have a couple of weeks to go. Haven't even been here on the site much as of late ... need more free time to be able to stalk my gift-getter. For my lucky Santa, I agree with "Surprise Me" ... my collections thread is up-to-date (I think) for reference, but has more holes in it than the Albert Hall so I should be easy.
WANT LIST: Any SK #186; Dark Man Unbound 1st Proof; FDNS Unbound 1st Proof; FDNS Black Tape Spine Proof; FDNS Unbound Color Proof
Done with mine as well
You don't know my kind.....You don't my mind.....Dark necessities are part of my design.....
I am also on track! Only waiting on one more item, which was purchased last week.

Boy, you guys are good! I have everything ordered, but they are coming from all over the place, including the UK (although I bought a back-up in case that one takes forever to arrive). Now I'm just waiting on USPS to bring my SS stuff without demolishing it. Fingers crossed!
I just need to figure out how to wrap it then it will be off this week. Should we have an opening day - maybe Dec 19th??
Wanted: Human skin edition of The Book of the Dead. Will accept PC copy.
I'll wait. If we have an opening day, like Becca suggested above, I'll open it then. Otherwise I open my Christmas presents on Christmas! (well except that one I need to sneak in on the 24th.)
IMO, people should wait until an agreed upon specific day. Maybe not the 24th or 25th as most people will have a lot of things going on. How about Thursday the 22nd?
Thoughts?
BTW, I just administer the thing. I don't give or get a SS. I live vicariously through everyone else.
I like the idea of coordinating a day where everyone opens their gifts. Dec 22nd would work for me.

I think Becca's idea for the 19th is pretty cool. Then maybe post a photo here of what ya get.
Question. How do you guys not reveal your identity when you mail off your gifts? I assume the PO wouldn't allow you to leave the return address info blank.
You don't know my kind.....You don't my mind.....Dark necessities are part of my design.....
I like the idea of the 19th! I'm also free that day
Regarding staying anonymous, I was planning on just putting a return address and leaving off my name. Also considering using my parent's address in the off chance my recipient knows my address.

Load up the Spaceship with the Rocket Fuel
It's easy to ship inside the USA with a false shipping name/address. It's a bit tougher, but still possible on international shipping.
