That board game looks tremendous.

I sent out half of my gift today. Somehow it's cheaper to send to North America than Japan from here smh. Other half will go closer to Xmas since I can ship from the USA

You still where those? You may be the only person in Poland with a pair like that.

That sucks.

Yeah I've never copped shipping too bad myself, I've mailed shit to the US and Korea in past SS, was never more than $20NZ (around $15US) for the package, which is very reasonable IMO.

I remember Billy Rygar (or whatever he was called before he left) FedExed me some shit from Cali to NZ one year as his first gift got nailed by customs. The docket on that said shipping was like $70US

Tip for folks don't let Amazon ship shit via smartpost... On the phone with Amazon hoping to get a next day shipment. Sadly I'm having to go with a back up item since the one I order is out of stock, thanks Amazon for being assholes.

Mailbox lock was broken so for the last few days, mail was being held at the post office. I went to pick up a package I ordered and found this:

Two years and an awesome person both years! Same guy of course.

Joe Molotov · « **Reply #192 on:** December 11, 2013, 09:37:18 PM »

I finally got my stuff for my santee today, but I probably won't ship it until next week because I got stuff to do and I'm lazy.

CatsCatsCats · « **Reply #193 on:** December 11, 2013, 09:56:27 PM »

Lego Marvel is fuckin legit, especially if you have someone to co-op with

brawndolicious · « **Reply #194 on:** December 11, 2013, 10:17:04 PM »

Okay I ordered it, it has to be split into multiple packages unfortunately with the first package arriving on Friday and the last one in about two weeks.

The package you will be receiving early next week should not be opened in front of children!

I'll be done with my finals tonight and shipping tomorrow (via UPS). Hopefully they don't fuck me over.

Dickie Dee · « **Reply #201 on:** December 13, 2013, 07:47:37 AM »

Finally sent mine off. Hope it's there by Xmas but not sure of the delivery times.

Wish I had more time to get cooler/more thoughtful gifts but work/life's been slamming me the past few weeks.

At least I know it's something they'll enjoy.

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #202 on:** December 13, 2013, 11:09:19 AM »

I'll be in Nebraska from the 23rd to 29th (I put my mail on hold), so I won't be able to open to my gift until after Christmas if it comes during that time.

fistfulofmetal · « **Reply #203 on:** December 13, 2013, 11:14:21 AM »

My shipment looks to be back on track. Hopefully it will be out for delivery today or tomorrow.

I got a Retro Duo in the mail today, though there wasn't any return address on the package, nor a card or note or anything... just an Amazon Prime package. Truly a 'secret' Santa! But thank you, this is a great gift... I've been interested in trying out some of the retro clones and seeing how accurate they are to the original systems... especially since my front-loader NES is annoying to get to work some times (my brother replaced the pin connector and now the games are almost impossible to take out).

fistfulofmetal · « **Reply #208 on:** December 14, 2013, 11:31:08 AM »

My gift is sitting in a carrier facility in the state of my pick. So it should eventually be delivered. If it doesn't get delivered by Wednesday I'll contact you directly and let you know.

I typed a note for Amazon to deliver with it, I guess they didn't.

Enjoy it.

Awesome, thanks Mojo!!

Haha you said you liked chocolate and apparently a lot of the popular "chocolate" products on Amazon are sex stuff.

Bebpo · « **Reply #212 on:** December 14, 2013, 05:55:38 PM »

Got this from Sceneman!

Captain Commando manga which, while totally sweet because I freaking love Captain Commando, was made even MORE awesome by Sceneman's letter describing how it's so I can remember Capcom when they were actually awesome

Yes! The only thing I like better than Capcom manga is trolling modern Capcom!

Plus he drew this freaking awesome picture and wrote a letter on the pac-man notepad I gave him for SS (btw, someone screwed up since we got each other in SS).

Great gifts! Thanks Sceneman!!

The Sceneman · « **Reply #213 on:** December 14, 2013, 06:09:09 PM »

Glad you liked it! I drew a portrait because I was thinking "what do you get the man that has everything?"

Let me know if the manga is any good or not. I saw it on the shelf at my local geek emporium and I was like HOLY SHIT CAPTAIN COMMANDO. Art style looked appropriately old school

Bebpo · « **Reply #214 on:** December 14, 2013, 06:13:10 PM »

Yeah, I flipped through it and it looked cool!

I got a package today! Wasn't sure if it was from evilbore or my mom; until I looked at the label

so i open it up!

PRESENTS!

no worries santa, i love anything. but know who loves gifts even more?! DINO SAURS

T-ranny Rex starts to open the first gift...

AND ITS THE ENTIRE MAN WITH NO NAME TRILOGY

T-ranny Rex has a little orgasm and then has to lay down in the amazingness.

In the meantime Stegosoreus admires her present..

She starts to open it but gets a sneak peek at "Philosophy"

AND ITS A COPY OF THE CULTURE OF MAKE BELIEVE
this book is like 5000 pages, so it blows Stegosoreus's head.

Finally the two dinobrothers examine the last gift..

They use team work to open it up..

AND REVEAL A COPY OF THE FIFTH BEATLE WOAHH
They are so sexually horny they decide to do a impromptu 69 on the book ew but I guess it fits since brian epstein was a gay also

the book is real nice and awesome, with some great beatles art

thank you so much santa you rule. you didnt leave a username just a real name and i don't know who to connect it to, but thank you so much <3 the presents

fistfulofmetal · « **Reply #217 on:** December 16, 2013, 11:51:23 AM »

Depending on what service you chose, UPS doesn't always deliver on the weekend.

Right. However the destination was another routing facility and it departed on Friday morning. The facility is an hour away, I looked it up. It should have at least arrived THERE by the end of the day or updated with some indication of it's status.

Their tracking service is pretty wonky at times, you could always call and bitch.

I swung by my house at lunch to open it up because I'm still like a little kid when it comes to gifts. You put so much thought into the gifts, and they were so personable and humorous. You're a fantastic gift-giver buddy! I wish I can become a better gift giver like you in the future. I'll take more pics and post more about them later tonight, but for now, the funniest gift of all:

Not gift-wrapped. Thanks, Amazon!

The shame I feel from having purchased Aliens: Colonial Marines but not Aliens Infestation [which was the contents of the gift] is palpable.

Uhh....?

zomg

Dude's just chilling on top of my computer, probably making a movie or something.

Anyway, thank you, Mysterious Gentleman [or Gentlewoman].
