Sent! I used the box as the gift's wrapping. I just hope that doen't influence some grinch to take it!

Two things, make sure you pick up your packages (that are left outside) promptly, people. And, since it's fairly obvious that my box is a gift, I insured it.

Mine went out tonight....sure hope it makes it in time. The address I got seemed incomplete but I'm sure there's enough info that they'll figure it out. Seems like a rural area so I'm sure that played a part in the address. fingers crossed!

Still haven't received what I ordered, hope I get it in time. The US is FAR from here!

You can always send a PM to your person on Christmas morning. Ask if it got there & let them know then that if it didn't that there was a delay.I know that would work for me.

Just checked the status of my gift, and it has arrived on U.S soil. Hopefully my recipient will have it soon.

ooOoooo.. Wife called and said a very heavy box arrived. I'm getting all antsy in my pants!

And my SS gift still hasn't arrived too me... It's supposed to be here in the next couple of days and then I will be shipping it. My SS was a tough one, he didn't post much about what he has or what he needs, other than he is trying to build a better quality collection of tools... Hope he doesn't have what he is getting!

Sent mine today. Forgot to include the card. :headshake

It's going to be a real surprise now. I'll have to send a PM after he opens it.

My gift went out today. With the estimated delivery date, I don't think it will be in time. Well, Christmas is the time for miracles!

is it cheating if I just send it directly from the website I ordered it from :D

That was a very real consideration for me participating from another country. Shipping is equal to the value of the gifts. Next year I'll buy online in the States and ship directly from there. That way I can afford a much nicer tool. It's the idea that counts anyway.

I received my gift today, and I also bought what I'm giving. Packing it up and will try to ship out tomorrow. I also need to upload the picture of it under the tree. It's going to **** staring at if for 2 weeks, but I'm just glad to have received it!

I placed my order for my gift about 4-5 days ago, instead of it being here by now like I hoped, I just got a call from the company TODAY so that they could verify my shipping info!!! This just *****. I've ordered at least twice before from them, so they have my info. It made angry, and if it were an order for myself, I would of told them to forget about it lol. But it's for my SS, so hopefully it gets here ASAP, it has a long way to travel once I wrap it up and ship it.

Yesterday was a day of filing and grinding, nailed it to a board today and was in time to catch the pony express rider as he went by. Hope it makes the Dakotas before the big snows.

I just shipped my gift international today. I hope it makes it there in time, I forgot to ask the post lady how long it takes to get overseas. If my SS doesn't send me an IM shortly before Xmas I'll email him and let him know it's enroute.

Just bboxed mine up, going out later today. Wrapped it up in foam, no amount of shaking will allow you to determine what is inside. Just an FYI to the reciever. :beer:
