If you haven't gotten a response from me saying your in, on a list, or something else along those lines please send me another email.

Late card signups have been opened for a little now. because nothing is quite like getting a card from ano- Santa for Christmas. Please fill out the form and send it off to me at [email protected], signups for cards end on the 30th, If I'm good assignments should be out by the 3rd.

Name:
Full Address:
Amount of cards:
International? (yes/no)
Information about yourself, this part is given to the people who are assigned to you. Feel free to include suggestions, lists, websites, or whatever:

Anything else you need me to know (sent only to me, also end of card form):

Lastly, I'm not associated with the on time exchanges. So make sure your questions go to the right people.

So lets have a Secret Santa thread. How are you preparations coming along? Did you get anything for black Friday?

You can always throw in non-/a/ stuff like candy, drinks, etc. If your anon is from far away, give them something local to give them a unique treat.

Sending a model kit, should I also send tools/paint to go along with it? Can I even send that shit through mail?

>>134175643
Their main present is for the most part non-/a/, because their suggestions have little to no merch. That's why I feel like I should get something else, but it's probably too late for an import without paying express shipping that I can't afford.

Yo Monchichi
Your poster got delivered to my place damaged.
Somebody must have squashed it while it was rolled up, because there are several wrinkles up and down the length of it.
From what I've seen online, it can be fixed. That being said, I don't have the means to do it myself (you need an iron). I also feel like shit sending you damaged goods.
Do you want me to order a new one? It'll probably end up getting to you late.
I should be able to get it for free if I bitch enough though.
