Ok I say whoever didn't send a gift or didn't get to it just speak out in this thread. It's not fair for the people who signed up and bought someone something and then didn't get shit.

I would agree, though I am a bit biased now....::)

My SS did pm me to tell me she sent it at the beginning of Dec and it just never showed up *sigh*

It's like, if you weren't planning on making an effort to get a gift you shouldn't have signed up.

yea, that sucks. Corgan can see who had who, right?!
Yea peeps. I cant work and was in and out of the hospital and was STILL able to somehow get my SS a gift. There are NO excuses!

I am confident that my gift will arrive next week! I know it takes at least 14 days for items shipped from the US to Canada...so if was sent out on the 10th, then that brings us to the 24th, which no mail will be delivered her until the 27th anyway, so I am patiently awaiting for the mailman! It will be nice to get one last holiday suprise!

i have a pretty good idea of who my SS might be and if I am correct then I'm gonna be pissed. Because she hasn't logged in since Dec. 10th.

That was me. I'm hoping that it's delayed because of the holiday mailing season. Don't worry Cally, I'll get you your gift come hell or high water! I just don't know how long we should wait before I send you something.

Sounds something like "I'll be right back". Will, I feel your pain. Which is why I only do Secret Santa stuff with family members. Hope you get the gift eventually.

She may have underestimated the cost of her bf's Xbox video games and now finds herself short. In fairness, I'd give her until the the first of the year before getting too pissed.

Perhaps I am being paranoid (which I naturally am) but I am thinking she didn't want to send a gift to a guy. It's all good. /:O

So 3 people have not recieved their gifts, correct?
Austinatalie
Will

Is this right??
Because I did some sleuthing, since Corgan hasn't been around, and I discovered that 3 people have NOT send gifts yet.
So I am pretty upset that people recieved gifts but did not send any out. That is fucked up. I am ready to call out the ones who didn't send out gifts.
So people...If you have shipped out the gift to someone who hasn't recieved yet, please, make youself known. Because those that haven't bothered to send somethign will be called out.
One thing....rozz signed up for SS, but nobody mentioned sending her something, she never mentioned recieving anything, and she hasn't logged on for several days now.
Did anyone send her a gift?
I am going to get to the bottom of this.
Anyone who did not send out a gift but recieved one, and did not get in touch with their SS to explain their reason will be called out.
I am going to get to the bottom of this.

^ Well, my post came out kind of harsh.
I am worried about those who haven't sent out gifts. They also haven't logged in for awhile..and I don't know if it's because somethign bad happened or what.
I am going to PM them and ask privatly, but since they haven't logged on they may not answer me....
I do not want to embarass anyone who had somethign happen and were unable to send...I like to give them the benefit of doubt.....

Do you have any kind of tracking number you can use to see where it is? Did you insure it? If you track and it comes up gone...you can call and complain...esp if you have ins. Then you will know, get your money back and re-send
I've had to do this many times since my post office AND ups here blows donkey dick and screws things up on a reg basis

I know who rozz had and I can look back to see who had her (they mentioned something that was on her wishlist). I haven't talked to her in a few days, so I have no idea if she got her stuff or sent out a gift, though.
Awww Will - :( I woulda sent you a gift.
You are very sweet and Mr. Potato Head Opti-Mash Prime sounds like the sh&*! ;D

Like an idiot, I didn't even think about a tracking # or insurance, in retrospect I should have and that's totally my fault.
I really hope she gets it soon, it pisses me off because it's a hand made gift (still not going to tell!) so I geuss I
ve got to get busy making Cally another!

If you sent it usps..check your reciept ..you should have a tracking number on it. Same with ups or fed ex actually.

It sucks that not everyone got a gift :(
Interestingly I also participated in another online SS gift exchange through a website for dog owners. Even though not everyone got a gift yet here on SW, our SS here is way more organized and going much better than the SS exchange on the dog owner site! Who would have thought! LOL!

Sinder, you haven't recieved a gift either? Have you heard anything?
To the Secret Santa Flakes:
I Know Who you Are. You Suck.
I was hoping that there were some extenuating circumstances that prevented them from sending out gifts. But for fucks sake, the deadline was the 10th...and most of us were already done shoppign and had shipped and recieved by then. There was plenty of notice. If there was a reason that a SS was unable to send a gift...you all could have atleast Pm'ed your person and apologized.
It's interesting to note that the flakes were all members with low post counts.Which means if we ever do this again, I am makign the recommendation that nobody with under 500 post count be allowed to join in.
There is, howveer, the exception of Rozz, who I am ratehr concerned about. She hasn't logged on in awhile, and although she was signed up...nobody ever mentioned being her SS and sending her a gift. Likewise, nobody mentioned recieving a gift from her. SO I am not sure if she dropped out or what happened. I am worried about her tho and hope everything is ok.
I'm also wondering if anyone would possibly be willing to take over the SS for the little elfs who got left out. I will volunteer myself to take one person, and if anyoen else is willing, please PM me, and I will work it out so that the elfs don't know who their new SS is. That way these people can recieve gifts. It's not fair they got left out when they did their part.

I talked to Sinder's SS... her gift was sent weeks ago, not sure why it hasn't arrived. They will be checking the tracking info and find out what the holdup is. Hopefully it's not customs! ::)

Still nothing?!?!?! :O Well that's not right. I came forward to my SS (hi Vixen!) and explained my screw up....but sweetie, it should have been there by now! So I'll check on Tues (going out of town for new years) and find out what happened. Unless it shows up by then! Then Yay!!!!!
As for the others who haven't even heard from their SS about the delay...so sorry! That sucks!

Cally, I'll let you know when I'm done and I'll get the address again. Would it be easier to send it UPS or try mailing it again?

AustinNatalie will be recieving a gift from a Secret Santa.
A very kind person has offered to step in and replace her absent Santa.
I'm working on getting the others covered.
So gifts for all!!! YAY!!

Geez, I wonder who this was directed at, since I'm Alaska's ss and my post count happens to fall just under 500. I was out of town and sent her's when I got back which was just a couple days after the 10th. The shipping should've taken no more than a few days, which means she should've recieved a long time ago. But she's out of town so I don't think she has been here on sw. And I got her some really nice stuff too. I know the circumstances didn't look so good at first, but I am anything but a scrooge, thanks.
Kaylinn
12-31-2007, 02:17 PM
^ That actually wasn't directed at you. I honestly did not know who Alaska SS was. I just knew who hadn't recieved and who hadn't sent...but not who went with who!
I was just trying to make sure that everyone recieved a gift, and if Alaska hadn't recieved her's yet, I had a new santa lined up for her so she would recieve a gift.

Aww thanks Susan!!! Im going home the end of Feb(I got smart this time and have sent all my costumes that I would need for bigger bookings back home to make sure I go home). So i'll get you to send it to my parents again... damn customs :(

Austinatalie I know who your santa is. She pm'ed me a while back because she wanted a pic or description of you so she could do a self portrait. I completely forgot about it and figured she'd just buy you a present. If I can get to austin before I go back to school, I want to bring you a naughty gift basket.}:D
