Work has been crazy and I have had zero time to get any shopping done. I'm taking a half day today to sort that out.

I ordered the gifts for my person last week directly from Amazon, thinking it would be faster, but all of a sudden Monday morning I see the estimated delivery date change from the end of this week to the second week of January. I put cancel submission through on Amazon, but no confirmation email or change in the status. So I contacted Amazon support, and no response after 24 hours, though their site says 12 hours is typical... I hope it's just because of the holidays, and I hear back soon.

If I don't receive a refund or ship notification by Friday morning, I'm going to buy the gifts locally and ship them myself.

On a more positive note, the gifts from my Santa arrived today. Pics in the gift thread.

it is so sad.. I have done this for 4-5 years and I totally spaced on it this year.. I would have liked to have been in it, I just don't read Anandtech nearly as much as I used to. Merry Christmas anyway guys/gals

 

[wangotango]

I received mine today. Feels heavy. I pray that I have been blessed with a water color block so I can paint a Bird for a 105 year old woman in a nursing home

I found that using the contact by phone option to give you the fastest response. You can do it at any time as well.

Sent out some emails for my NAUGHTY list. Those on it are those who I haven't received confirmation numbers from and those who haven't posted in the thread. Hopefully just lack of communication is all it is. Father Time (Get it? Time? Back to the Future? MartyMcFly??? I'll show myself out now) is watching you...

 

[Fritzo]

It's a Christmas miracle!!! The final gift arrived! I apologize to my victim about the delay and rest assured your goodies are being sent by priority mail today

Hey just wanted to say mine arrived. Haven't opened it yet. Will report back when I have. I'm guessing board game though, based on size and the shake technique

Also, loving the book!
