N&G Secret Santa - 2020

[Murfocakes]

Or better yet, what do you give the person who literally has everything?

Did you end up with me? If so.... apologies

 

[LeeVing]

Putting the box together for my Santee - waiting on one to ship in - should get it by Wednesday and then I'll be able to get it out on Thursday.

I don't get a lot of time to get in the PIF thread, so I use this Secret Santa to thrown in a copy of doubles / triples / ... ok sometimes quadruples I have. Not that they are in bad shape, but just that I have found something just a bit better.

I also do this to hopefully expand what my Santee listens to.

 

[Skalap]

Dear Santee, I hope your Discogs collection is updated because you are receiving two classics by two top bands in a genre you seem to love a lot.

Merzbow

If they have that you're doomed

I love seeing what people get from their Santa’s on here. What a wonderful thing this is

ITS THE BEST

Ugh! I accidently picked an album my Santee already has! Trying to cancel and replace. Crossing my fingers!

 

[gaporter]

All of my Santee's gifts have been ordered, however due to me being a dumbass, some of it will come much later than the rest. So please be patient with me, Santee! I'M TRYING MY BEST ALRIGHT

Thats just life! I’ve ordered from two different shops for mine so it’s very likely that there will be a few days between the two deliveries as well!

Ditto. Mine ended up being three separate shipments. It will be secret Santa sprinkle surprise.

To whoever my Santee is...feel free to ignore my wantlist and go on instinct. I know there are only a handful of affordable records on there.

Samesies!

 

[dhodo]

Same for me on wantlist not being restricted and VG+ used being great. Hopefully my santa doesn't mind that I used theirs more for a guide as well.

Got a couple of things on order. Now to anxiously hope they get here in time to ship back out.

To my Santa,

I have been working so much at the hospital, I rarely update my wishlist, and off of it is a-ok.


To my Santee,

I have been working quite a bit at the hospital, and am fervishly trying to figure out what to purchase for you. I can only hope it arrives and is packaged on time. Apologies in advance.

Unexpected delivery, what could this be? Didn’t think it would be Secret Santa this early, so a nice surprise for a Sunday afternoon.

The picture isn’t great but we have Breach by Fenne Lily and A Strangely Isolated Place by Ulrich Schnauss. 2 albums I’ve never heard of (only vaguely heard of Schnauss’ name). This is the kind of Secret Santa I dig, a trip into the unknown and someone else’s taste. Thanks Santa, you rock!

Next step is to match a real name to a forum name...

Wow, they got there fast! Hope you enjoy them. They've both gotten tons of listens from me this year.

 

[GStephenH]

Well, my first package to my Santee will be the album they already have. And it arrives today by itself. They are going to have a WTH moment today

Don't worry Santee - three more packages are to follow. From what I can see you DON'T own any of those.

 

[Thackeraye]

I will enjoy them! Love a bit of lofi electronica and Dead Oceans is consistently good as a label, so I'm sure I'll have a blast. Will report in once I've given them a listen.

Fenne Lily is good. Enjoying it so far!

Ordered my santee's gifts. Should be there in the next few days. This thread is what I look forward to all year. I'm excited to see what everyone receives this year.

So, unexpectedly I received my Secret Santa gift today and I'm completely floored by the generosity. I'm not going to post any pics just yet, I'll wait for the bulk of people to get their goodies and start posting and then I'll add mine to the thread.

That being said, a truly heartfelt thank you to my Santa, the item sent was on my list, but has been for quite a while with the intention of eventually picking it up, I had no delusion of it coming from this event. Again, the generosity around here is staggering at times and I'm happy to be a part of such an amazing community.

To my Santa, you shouldn't have, but Thank you!!
