hudsoncomplex Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 I've kept my nose out of here to avoid jealousy or building too much anticipation but damn, it's over. Some great packages so far. Well done all around. Are you taking part this year, Dave? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCandless Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 I regret not joining up so much. You people are all awesome. You're literally sending random(ish) people over the Internet better gifts than most families give eachother. It gives me the warm and fuzzys.

Sorry again that the Aphex Twin single is in crappy shape. There's still one more thing that haven't shown up yet, so I'll drop in by your house when it gets here. Oh, and my "cousin" was actually me. Haha. OrangeJoe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'd be really bad if you held off for a month and it turned out to be a puppy or something. For the sake of the puppy, you should open it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerseydave77 Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Let's get to my SS breakdown. My guess to the perpetrator of a badass package will come later - the name I thought isn't on the confirmed list so I need to think a bit more. Do not reveal yourself yet. Look at this insane haul... Yeah, I know I need a trade list but you did fine even without one. I have yet to touch Happy - love Morrison and am a huge fan of Robertson's work on The Boys. I have yet to read Burning Fight and know I need to. Score: 2 for 2 so far. The Swing Kids 7" is badass - I already have it but promise to give it to a good home. I lack that Weston split but have seen both bands and will totally enjoy this. The Bomb Shell 7" is a score - it is one of the few early No Idea 7"s that I don't own but would have snagged if I ran into it. Score: 5 for 5 This a great looking comp. I have the Chain song but I lack the Against the Wall song in my collection (under rated old school HC). Can't wait to spin this. The early Brand New mixes? I promise to listen to them. The Judge cassette - I laughed so hard since I am not tape collector but it goes without saying the I LOVE JUDGE. It's in a good home. My kid was stoked to get the keychain of the Lego Snow Trooper. I kept the awesome Yoda pin for my jacket. Local roast coffee? Ummmmm, YES! Ok...look at photo #1 again - there are awesome Black Metal LPs and more in here. I'm getting sleepy though and am going to brew me a cup of coffee. I'd say this package batted 1.000 - simply awesome in every way and full of stuff I either wanted, didn't know I wanted or am totally high on checking out. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU.

roadmonkey Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 As you can see I got a lot of awesome things. The Transformers PJ bottoms and Beanies are rad. Especially since I needed new bottoms The Batman Pen is awesome, it has a light up bat signal. Also a pack of Joker playing cards, which will be nice for my next card game. A boat load of music including 2 records I've been meaning to pic up. Call of the Mastodon, Transgender Dysphoria blues, and Christmas Songs. finally A Fine Balance by Rohinton Mistry which I can't wait to read. I think my SS is Koljou, Thank you so much. jtcohenour 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have found me out. I'm glad you liked everything! A Fine Balance will break your heart in all the worst ways, but it's amazing. My only requirement is that you have to spin Christmas Songs on Christmas then never again. Haha.

IanRees Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Got 2 packages from my secret santa today and one of them specifically said not to open until xmas day so i shall wait till then on that one. But i opened the one that didn't and it is awesome. Everything was wrapped in Frozen wrapping paper. I LOVE the compressible pillow and will for sure be taking with me on my next backpacking trip The Kings of California sticker is awesome and is going on my car ASAP. Love the Rancid Sticker too The Haunted Mansion mug is bitchin and i can't wait to dig into the cookbook. Based off the frozen wrapping and the Disney stuff i'm pretty sure my SS is LooseyMoosey, you killed it with this package and i can't wait to see whats in the other one. Thank you so much, now im gonna dig into those gingerbread Twix Green Tea Papi and TheMoosen 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aych Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Got package two out of three on Friday. Two for two so far, I can't wait to see what the third one has to offer. I also totally know who my SS is, but we'll wait for #3 for the reveal. Hopefully it doesn't arrive while I'm gone for Thanksgiving, or else it's gonna be chilling in the parcel box for a few days and that wouldn't be cool.
