    Unfortunately, I have received nothing. Maybe by New Years?

    At least my secret giftee really liked his presents I sent. That does make it all worth while!

    Merry Christmas to everyone!

    Merry Christmas All!

    I noted that my recipient--Nugen--had not been confirmed as having received. This troubles me. I sent it with Postal Delivery Confirm 2 weeks ago, so he certainly should have received it. I e-mailed him to let him know when it was sent. Never got a return message. I am leaving for vacation today and the postal slip is in the office. Has anyone heard from him?

    So you all know I sent:

    2 '59 Ted Williams cards-PSA-8
    '90 Fleer Jim Rice PSA-10
    '90 Score Fisk--PSA-10
    several other hi grade Rice and Fisk cards
    1 Cal Ripken comm ball for breaking the streak
    a 1967 Boston Herald(or was it a Globe?) newspaper when the Sox lost Game 7--a cool item

    I am not a deadbeat!!

    I was not around when you guys had the Secret Santa (I'm ready for next year). I have been looking at some of the gifts that were given ... man, there were some real awesome gifts!

    What was the amount of the gift supposed to be?

    STAY HEALTHY!

    I do not know what happened. As I stated previously, the package was sent 2 weeks ago. I hope to hell I still have the deliv confirm receipt at the office. When I return next Sat from vacation, I will check and let you know. If I do not have it to learn what happened, I will get you a second package out.

  • Gift recieved before Christmas. But I just got home and I got Capt. Highliner on the burner and a bottle or Rum with no cork... BOOYAH!

    It's hard to say.

    I have a list at the beginning of tis thread but some guys just have not pm'd me or have not replied to this thread to let me know one way or another.

    According to my list, the following guys have not received:

    uyu906, his santa was cardsforms

    cwazzy, his santa was illini who had told me it is in transit.

    Nugen, his santa was flatfoot





    I sure hope all gifts are on the way.

    What bothers me the most is the fact that at least one guy on the list also mailed out after Christmas last year as well.
  • lawnmowermanlawnmowerman Posts: 19,477 ✭✭✭✭
    Also, to all the guys that have sent but their gifts have not arrived to their recipients, I will need a scan of the delivery confirmation slip or a scan of the po receipt

    Thanks

    Ok, I know a few of those are being "taken care of" by the Santas, but that doesn't mean anything until it happens. So, Santas, if you read this, and have any public info, that will help.

    Nugen pm'd me and said that the addy that he gave was his office. He was to check today to see if it arrived. Did it, Tony? As //i have said I am on vacation until the 2nd. If it did not arrrive, I will take care of my guy--again.

    Manny--flatfoot

    Manny, Nugen pm'ed me and said to pass this info along, as he wont be able to log in for a couple days:

    Jay, please let flatfoot816 know that the gift still hasn't arrived. I expect him to send me a new gift, as I don't think the "1st" is showing up. Tell him I am changing my collecting interests, and would prefer only Mark McGwire cards, preferably inserts or parallels in Gem condition. If he is in a pinch tell him I will also accept an autographed bat. Thanks, Nugen



    PM sent with address he would like it shipped to.

  • Maybe it will help ease some minds: I shipped a card to a friend that only lives about an hour and a half away on the 22nd. He just received it yesterday. Hopefully all gifts are in the mail and will be arriving next week.
  • lawnmowermanlawnmowerman Posts: 19,477 ✭✭✭✭
    Next year you guys really need to start shopping during the beginning of November. That way, this kinda stuff can be avoided. I know some had their reasons but if it wasn't put off, we wouldn't be having this conversation.

    I am not ripping anyone or singling anyone out, I'm just stating the obvious

    Thanks.

    Just got home from work, and no S.S. gift here again today.

    While I am waiting for my Christmas present, would anyone have anything on my wantlists available for trade? Please see my site in my signature line and PM me if you think we might be able to work out a trade.

    Thanks!
