Secret Santa 2022!
« on: September 27, 2022, 11:58:43 am »
Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages ... VGCollect proudly brings to you its SECRET SANTA of the world!
***Copying and pasting last years rules***

If you want to participate this year, please post your name on this thread. I want people to have been members of these forums for at least 3 months prior to this and some sort of activity here. We have had 9 years so far of 100% success and we are not going to fail this year! Sign ups will be up through 10/11. Once its done, you have a week to send me your wish list, address info, and what not. Also include if you are willing to send out of your own country cause every year we get non US participants.

When you reply on this thread, post what you think the spending limit should be. I will take the most popular option and that's what we will go with. And since I'm mentioning it ... if the limit is $100 (an example) please don't send someone $10 worth of crap. The limit is more of a guideline as to what to expect to spend. Almost everyone here the past few years has went over the limit for their participant. Within the time of sending in the wish lists, if the limit becomes more than you want to spend, let me know and I can remove you from the list. No hard feelings will be had.

Every year we have a reveal thread and IIRC, Kashell/Dash/Turf and a few others actually do theirs on their YouTube page. If you wish to wait to open your gift until Christmas, that is definitely your prerogative. However, I would like to ask that no one posts anything about their stuff until after Christmas.

Please mention one of 4 options for gift receiving. 1- Please only go off of wish list 2- Use wish list if can but willing to accept items not in collection 3- Wish list is just a suggestion. Any and all gifts welcome (as long as not duplicates, decent condition, meets spending minimum) 4- Will not mind anything!
If you are late sending me your wish list, expect to be lumped into the 3 or 4 category or going to be bumped off the list all together.

Year #10 baby! Lets make this one memorable.

And with that, we are closed! A dozen participants isn't too bad imo.

Okay, you have 1 week to send me your wishlist and shipping info (please include that ... It's a struggle to try to get it later). Re-read the bolded section when you are sending in your info. Lets get this party started.

Pairings are done! You have 3 weeks to get your gift and once mailed, update me with shipment info. Enjoy!!!

I'm in this year again as well.

A $60 budget sounds good to me.
