Title: Have you ever received or sent a random cap in the mail?
Post by: Melvang on Tue, 04 March 2014, 13:26:30: Like the title says, excluding Secret Santa, and other random giveaways, have any of you ever just gotten a random cap in the mail?

Edit: Changed to include sending a random cap.

I see. That was long before I started here. That might have been about the time I started thinking about getting new caps for my Das. Which was what led me here.

Post by: SpAmRaY on Tue, 04 March 2014, 13:36:13: Perhaps you could have also asked, "Have you ever sent random caps to people in the mail?"

And the ones I received but was expecting were not exactly random.

Post by: Melvang on Wed, 05 March 2014, 22:20:16: Alright guys I have updated the OP to include if you have ever sent a random cap to someone. I actually just did the other day. The recipient should be receiving it tomorrow.

Post by: katushkin on Thu, 06 March 2014, 12:03:00: I've sent a couple off to people. A guy on reddit wanted to know where I got my Jimmies cap from, I said I wasn't using it and just sent it to him in Poland. Nbd.

I've had ones in addition to stuff before as well, I got three nice doubleshots from margo with my custom WASD and a free triforce cap from Bluesy as well when I bought some gasmasks :)
