Yes, I absolutely love giving and receiving stuff from internet strangers!

No, I am afraid of you ... if you can even be called "people".

Yeah, I'd be up for this. Jersey, UK.

If shipping/paying for delivery is a problem for some people, could they not just use Steam and get their person a game?

OHGOD. That reminds me, Kael, I owe you for the Stalker from last Christmas. Shit, totally forgot. Sorry man. I'll make up for it.

[KaelGotDwarves]

Yes, perhaps - I know quite a few Europeans and Aussies might jump at the chance of getting discounted games gifted to them - especially those that are unavailable for buying or censored in their locales.

And don't worry about it, it was a gift. I sent a bunch of people stuff back then I don't even remember.

I already have some money set aside for the Steam sale. haha...ho.

As I said, I'm interested, and I'm in the Midwestern US. I was also going to mention that you could order things and have them shipped from the manufacturer to the recipient as well, or browse around on EBAY for a seller in their area. There are a lot of potential workarounds for international shipping... it's the same theory as the Amazon UK/US idea.

Anyway, I'd say setting a vertical limit somewhere around $30.00 US would be comfortable to me, and still allow for a variety of gift-things.

$30.00 USD is £18.67 in real money, which I can afford.

And Kael, I'm going to get you something, regardless of this.

[Strife26]

I can probably afford $30, provided I can get at my bank account.


Fucking debit card.

I'm game. North Carolina, USA. (I'll laugh if I wind up with one of the other forumites in the Triangle...)

[qwertyuiopas]

There is always the possibility of digital gifts, including steam, art, donations/purchases in online games for someone else...

[Aqizzar]

I'm on board with this.  I take it the gift limit is going to be something like $30+shipping, judging by the looks around the thread.  I'm cool with that.

The best part will be after the gifts are received and we all pry and wheedle and speculate on who bought who which gift.  That's always fun.

[Argembarger]

I'd consider this. No guarantees as I'm a destitute college student.

I could probably spare around 30 bucks though. I'll keep an eye on this for details and whatnot and let you know closer to the time.

I think that's just you, me, and Footkerchief. However, I am not in, so that just leaves Footkerchief.

California, US.

Probably can't do this due to parents breathing down my neck, though.

Express instructions for Kael: Disguise her gift as packaged schoolbooks.

And yeah, American east coast here.

[Gunner-Chan]

I'd so do this but I'm under orders pretty much not to give my address out. Plus I don't have very much personal money. Plus if I got someone to send a gift to I didn't like I'd probably just not send anything. So yeah.

[Boksi]

Well now. This might be fun, but then again I live in Iceland, so the postage might be rather bothersome.
