**** really nubbinator? That sucks about the hot wheels ugh

Yeah, I wanted to get one for my person.  Might as well splurge on the real thing at those prices.

Wait... the $20 limit wasn't an implied falsehood?!?

It's a $20 minumum, not maximum.  I just can't justify that for a toy.

Does a CD that consists of 12 tracks of "I'm Different" count as a mixtape?

(sorry, 2 Chainz is the worst, but relevant.  It's no N.W.A., but maybe some Krizz Kaliko and Snow tha Product will make it better

3 and a half weeks out till shipping deadline.  Why did I give so long?  The anxiety is building. 

So far one is already arrived and I know one or two others will be shipping soon.

Also, I apologize to whoever gets me, I couldn't get the 2 Chainz music box mechanism to work with the cardboard box it's shipping in, so you will not be serenaded with the sweet sweet melodies of Mr. 2 Chainz when the box is opened.

Who knew it was so hard to find a Mercedes or Bugatti Hot Wheels? Ugh. I got something that *looks* like Bugatti and a fire present. So between that good present and the mixtape I'm making, it'll have to do.

I wasn't kidding.  **** was impossible.  I still think I got some fun stuff for mine.  I was also debating painting the box gold.

And picking songs for a mixtape and the order is tough.

You should be able to use USPS first class, and the customs number is your tracking number.  I would double check with USPS, but I sent a package to AUS and it worked that way.  In the end it was ~$30 cheaper.

I definitely recommend checking first.  This might be something new they are doing, as I have had other people tell me that last year you could not do this.  I would hate to give you bad information and ruin it for someone else.

I... no words. I have no words. It's just... perfect. OH MY GOD PERFECT IS THE WORD!!!!!!!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
Such an awesome gift.
I'm gonna take a guess that it was samwisekoi, though the accuracy of my guess may have to do with the fact that I looked at the list. :rolleyes:
I really can't express how cool this gift is. It was worth the suspense of having to wait till getting back to Boston to open. ;D
Took me way to long to do this, but finally I got a chance to put these beautiful caps on a keyboard.


Thanks so much for these caps again sam. I really do love them.

Just in case Nubbinator hasn't mentioned the PM I sent to him to my Summer Santa.

I will be moving from my current address into a new place starting on June 6th. I'm still waiting on final mailing address cause of weird circumstances so if you have me, I'll be sending my updated address to Nubbs as soon as I get it.

If it's too late, I will still have access to the old address but I would prefer that we don't run into that complication.

Sorry for the inconvenience :(

Still only a handful shipped.  Remember, if you're shipping international, it must be shipped out by Saturday.  If you're shipping within your country, you have one more week.  Make it count.

Hypothetically speaking if I making something you wear should it be kinda ridiculous and feel ok to use or make it really ridiculous but annoying to wear?
