I will be sending my gift out on Friday, which someone should feel very happy with as I loaded it up as well. This is such a great idea, it will be cool to open and post them all.
My package left California on Wed and will be crossing the border into Canada.
I'll be honest .. I'm a bit worried about my package. My postal worker's English wasn't the best and she was trying to show me how to use their new automated machine (which she didn't seem to know much about herself).
Package may take up to 3 weeks, though I was being assured by someone else there that'd it'd arrive within a week, two tops.
Bottom line: The gift is worth the wait -- whenever it lands in the land of Tim Horton's.

I sent my gift off today, though I forgot to wrap the items inside. I realized I forgot to wrap them when I was at the post office counter, upon which I added "CU GIFT EXCHANGE (Not wrapped!)" below the address in sharpie. Whatever the case, the items inside should be of quality and I hope the receiver enjoys them. Thanks again for such a great idea in this gift exchange!
Mail your Xmas packages soon! The US Postal Service is getting backed-up delivering to rural areas. Rural letter carriers may be using moose instead of raindeer to make holiday deliveries? Oh my! rd
My daughter was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 2 (2003). My son was diagnosed with Type 1 when he was 17 on December 31, 2009. We were stunned that another child of ours had been diagnosed. Please, if you don't have a favorite charity, consider giving to the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation)
My package has been shipped today Priority mail, the lucky guy will get several PSA cards as well as non-graded cards, I went over the $25 limit. It felt good getting into the Christmas spirit! Enjoy!!!
It's taking a lot of time to find something special for my person.. I found 2 awesome cards that he would like for sure but the seller won't ship it to his address instead of mine let alone wrap it.. It's just not enough time to get something shipped up here and than back down to the US in time. The search for a good gift continues.
I think I found a great gift for my recipient but the phrase "Last-Second Overnight Delivery" might be in my future.
* For the record, not the seller's fault. It'll be due to the fact that I'm driving cross-country soon and will have to have the item shipped out to me after it arrives here on the east coast.
I haven't sent my gift yet, but it's only going across state so I'm not yet worried about it arriving late. I didn't get my info until a few days ago and had to do a little ebay searching to get a suitable gift. All is good, and I'm really looking forward to it.
My gift will be sent the second I get it in the mail. Unfortunatley I was not able to fill the need of my recipient through my collection and had to e-bay it! I expect the gift any day now .....
Thanks to all the people who have let us (me) know that they have sent their "gift" and those who have spent the time to explain why they haven't but will...........all your efforts are appreciated...........

I got my gift a few days ago---wow, its like a ton of bricks....I stored it and won't open any of it till Christmas morning just to be on par with everyone else.
I did not send my package away yet. Its not done. I want to be good to my partner so I don't have anything really special in my collection and had to order some stuff as well as go out shopping, which by the way was really fun. This whole thing is fun! I enjoy making sure things will be good for my gift receiver. In the end, our comraderie and group cohesion ought to be even better.

I sent mine out on Monday. I was incredibly excited about what I was sending! I went through my entire collection the last couple of weeks weeding through some great stuff. About 4 gifts total. My wife and I wrapped them up and sent them out. Sure hope their happy!
My gift was sent out today. I figured Ebay would be too slow, so I combed through my collection looking for stuff that might interest my target, and I think I did. I hope my target likes them.
