    I got mine today. There may have been a bit of a post office trouble, despite the fact my Santa paid TWENTY ONE DOLLARS to ship it. Wow!

    Thanks, Santa!

    I received mine (I let Matt know already) a couple days ago. I also shipped mine, but it seems like the PO in AZ is about the worst possible shipping choice. Priority shipping may not have even left the state yet and mailed 4 days ago...I'm checking DC to make sure that it gets there!

    I can't wait to see what everyone got. I know what I picked up for one sports fan. I hope it fits in the collection.

    **Just checked USPS and the package was delivered to my recipient** I won't take back what I said about USPS, cause tomorrow I probably won't get my mail, but I'll get my neighbors!

    Do we need a placeholder for the results show? Scans, pics etc of the secret santa reveal?

    Nothing yet, and I've been working from home the past two weeks so I wouldn't miss the post man or UPS/FEDX delivery guys. Two more mailing days before Christmas. I can't wait to get mine. I don't care if it's after Christmas, it's the thought of getting something from a complete stranger on this great board that makes it all worth the wait.

    I have a couple more Emmitt Smith/Michael Irvin cards I'm sending your way Lawnmowerman (after the holiday passes).

    Next MONTH? So he's saying that if he wins, the best-case scenario is that he'll be paying for it two weeks after the auction ends?

    We still have a bunch of guys that have not received yet. I have been in contact with a few guys, that let me know they have shipped out the gifts to their recipients. The other guys I have not heard from, I sent pm's to find out the status on the gifts you hopefully mailed already.

    Anybody that has not pm'd me yet with the status of their gift being sent, please do so

    Thanks

    I'm in the same boat as you (but at least I'll be here to greet my carrier come Monday-crossing fingers).

    Those few of you who didn't recieve, I'm sure Santa has been delayed by a blizzard.
    And if you don't recieve yours before New years day, I'm sure Lawnmowerman will do some FBI
    tracking and we'll all get our tar and feathers ready. Just have faith guys I'm sure Santa has been
    delayed. I heard on the news that in some snowy areas, Priority mail has been taking a week
    to arrive, due to last minute shopping.

    Nope. Not yet. Had the UPS guy and FEDX guy check their truck as they were at my neighbor's house today (these guys are pretty cool with me). Nothing with the postman except for more darn bills. I think it'll be a cool New Year's present. With the storms back east and the holiday season, delays happen. No worries.

    I can't wait though...the package feels heavy and could be very interesting!

    Wait....did I just say that "the package feels heavy"? Oh boy, I'll catch some heck for that one.

    Sorry, I'm late to the party. I did get my package on time and I did open it on Christmas eve. I just haven't gotten a chance to scan them in and actually sit down at the computer for any length of time. I received these Joe Montana cards. He is my favorite FB player and I didn't have any of these cards. Thanks much Santa!!

    I don't think of it as me getting the last Secret Santa gift of 2007, I think of it as me getting the first Secret Santa gift of 2008. I just hope I get it before my PSABoards Unofficially Official Birthday club gift.
