PLEASE....for the love of (insert higher power here) READ THE WHOLE FLIPPING ORIGINAL POST BEFORE ENTERING OR SENDING QUESTIONS.

THIS IS ABOUT GIVING. NOT RECEIVING. PLEASE REMEMBER THIS

PLEASE READ AND UNDERSTAND EVERYTHING FROM BELOW. I SPENT A LOT OF TIME AND EFFORT AND MORE THAN A FEW PEOPLE SEEMED TO PUT IN NONE. WE EVEN HAD PEOPLE IN THE PAST NOT EVEN SEND ANYTHING. I had people PM me 4 or 5 times for the address they were supposed to send to. Some people made NO effort in sending their item on time. Others basically went through their junk GU and sent them off. If you will be one of these people this year----please don't join!

THIS IS ABOUT GIVING. NOT RECEIVING. PLEASE REMEMBER THIS

On the flip side we had some INCREDIBLE gifts given by people who are looked down upon here on the forum.

THIS IS ABOUT GIVING. NOT RECEIVING. PLEASE REMEMBER THIS

Also, if you want a certain member to be your recipient let me know. I would do this if you had something you knew that member would really love. (This worked out really well last year)

THIS IS ABOUT GIVING. NOT RECEIVING. PLEASE REMEMBER THIS

RULES and Regulations: PLEASE READ THROUGH BEFORE ASKING QUESTIONS

Each participant will be obligated to send a “GIFT” to another participant. The “GIFT” should have a cost value of approximately $25.00 or more (This means you spend at least $25). The “GIFT” should be gift wrapped according to the season BEFORE it is packaged to be mailed . On the outside of the package, should be placed the words BLOWOUT gift exchange. This should help people from just randomly ripping a package open. The package should be mailed on or shortly after the 1st of December in order to insure a delivery in time for the holidays. “GIFTS” should not be opened before the evening of the 24th of December. Besides the return address on the package, no identification of the sender is necessary.

THIS IS ABOUT GIVING. NOT RECEIVING. PLEASE REMEMBER THIS

Gifts must be sent with Delivery Confirmation and the number must be sent to me.

Open to members in good standing who have been here Since January 2016 AND have at least 15 I Trader rating or higher or have a good transaction with me. I ALSO RESERVE THE RIGHT TO DENY ENTRY TO THIS EXCHANGE FOR ANY REASON I SEE FIT

THIS IS ABOUT GIVING. NOT RECEIVING. PLEASE REMEMBER THIS

“GIFTS” are limited in their nature to being sports related or at least something that PSA or BGS might grade or authenticate. (in the rare case of a non–sports card or autograph)

PLEASE put some effort into this. If someone wants to receive current Boston Red Sox please don't send Alex Rodriguez.

Let's have mature members who ALL make this a fun experience!

THIS IS ABOUT GIVING. NOT RECEIVING. PLEASE REMEMBER THIS

You can request to be a certain member's Santa but I can not guarantee anything.
