I have my wishlist since another secret santa I'm doing required it. Whoever got me doesn't have to get ke anything off of it.

I'm apparently the first victim

Thanks a lot for the gift, RetroFuturist!

As for my own gift I'll be sending out, I should be able to do that this weekend.

Just purchased my gift. The shipping is going to take 7-12 days due to it being international ship and on the cheap, so give it a few days my Canadian friend.

I think there's supposed to be another package, so I'll take a picture and post it when that arrives, but the thing I just received blew me away with how generous of a Secret Santa Retro is.

And once again, thanks for everything!

Glad it showed up all at once and that you didn't have any of it! There's something else coming but uhhhh I was really slow mailing it out. So. Before Xmas.

Have you gotten yours yet?

Heya. Was waiting on this and then it slipped my mind until I saw it pop back up today.

I did, assuming it was the first trade of Chew.

Oh good, I was worried I entered your weird Canadian address wrong.

Hope you like it, I didn't see it in that list you linked, and picked something you might like based on that. Sorry it's not much compared to others here.

I wasn't actually gonna say anything because Christmas isn't a time for being a scrooge but eh whatever if I don't it'll bug me.

I honestly was pretty disappointed. Not in the gift, I like Chew and don't have any of the trades, but rather that you'd join a secret santa with a gift limit of $60 and buy me something off of Amazon for $10. Like, it's not just a money thing. If you had wrapped up some dollar comics from a mini series or something and mailed them to me, that would have been fine. Hell, even if you had picked out and sent me something weird that you grabbed online from a Canadian store (I know shipping books to Canada is crap). But to just buy a fairly well known indie series trade online for a 1/3-1/6 (depending on shipping!) of the limit is kind of lovely.

Anyway food for thought for next time around! I'll still be participating if there's another one, because it was fun to try to figure out what Madkal might like (uh other than Secret Path). I found a lot of BKV and Lemire stuff that I didn't know existed and added it to my own personal wishlist.

Ah, apologies then. It is kinda my fault for joining this when I don't have a lot of money to be spending on gifts, and with how little I know everyone to begin with. Hopefully next time I'll be able to give whoever I get a better gift.
