Wow I can’t even begin to describe the amount of joy I had when I walked outside and saw the USPS chilling on the porch. Since this weekend I’ve been stressed, depressed, and quite energy less. Then when I saw it was from Andrew Miller I was even more excited. This isn’t the first time Proboscis has brightened up my day, he’s honestly a stand up guy and I Salute the positive vibes he sheds even through words alone. The first time he said something so simple and yet it was so deep and I was having a even harder time a few months back, and all he said was that he would pray for me but it made me feel so much better especially because I was feeling really down at the time.
Andrew,
I really want you to know that your positive vibes are a model for the way that I want to be, I find it hard to be positive I seem to struggle but I sometimes see the light. You are a good person and I appreciate the gift you sent me especially because you knew that it was something exactly I would want because I had inquired about the code 2 when you had it on your BsT. Everything else was just a jackpot bonus because I love the classic and BYYS. I appreciate everything you have done for me and all the positive input you contribute to the forum. Continue to be the great person that you are. Have a great day man!

P.S. - Here’s a picture. Having a way better day today
And not to be a downer, but the reason I backed out of the other gift exchange was because of all the low feeback exceptions, and I find it funny how the one “bad” gift of the bunch was from the exception.
I’m glad it made your day better, JC! Thanks for the kind words, have fun throwing that code 2 I threw in my favorite strings too, they’re all great selections. Happy Throwing!
Thanks Dingo! I got this awesome gift in the mail today! A purple Phenom(straight off my wants list mind you) and a really cool Severe. For me, these are are both throws that I have zero experience with, so I am VERY happy with my gift! Stoked to get something new to try out. http://i.imgur.com/w209aWgl.jpg
I got it today I received a KYO DNS and an ILYY Liopercleudon thingy majigeer. I also got a FH2 + counterweights AND some homemade string! Thanks a ton YoyoSpirit!
P.S. Pics will be up later, gotta upload them to Flickr first
I think he was out of town and just got back today. We’re in the process of a trade which is the only reason I know that. Super happy about the way this gift exchange worked out tho.
Also because the last gift exchange I was in resulted in giving with zero receiving. Charity more like it! Super stoked on the stuff I received still haven’t put down the code two.
@Jcpdx503, I’m glad things worked out this time. You deserve a nice gift. A Code 2 is always a great gift, how can you ever go wrong with that? The Classic is also one of my favorite plastics. I second that about Proboscis, a great guy indeed. He always comes through. And, that string looks good enough to eat. I’ll have to PM BigYoyo and see if he makes black ;D
@ Navythrow, that Severe looks great, I love the color, and wish I had a metal version in my collection. You’re a lucky guy.
@BigYoyo, I can’t wait to see that photo, sounds like a great gift. You can always count on Yoyospirit. By the way, do you make black string?
@Dingo’, Yeah, there were only ten of us, so I was hoping everything would be perfect. I think the more these mass trades happen, the better we will get at tightening up the rules to prevent that from happening. But, everyone will give feedback accordingly.
Seeing these posts today made my day. Very cool to get a surprise in the mail. Again, great job by Supbreh’ and thanks again for the wonderful gift. This was fun.
I recieved a mint undeniasble genesis, a mint n12, an undeniable video, a $4 subway card, string, and to top it all off i got nice bearings in the yoyos! THANKS A TON jcpdx503!
Im glad everyone got a good gift an d this all worked out for the better! Thank you all for participating, and have a good time with your new yoyos!
dude, that card made my day, i was feeling sad and hungry, i come home, and BAM! A got a 6 inch roasted chicken with cucumbers, lettuce tomatos, chipotle sauce, on a flatbread!
Ok, now that im done explaining my lunch, thanks again!
That just made me hungry. Food is a nice touch with anything. I put Skittles candy in with my Xmas Secret Santa gift. It came in a big candy cane shaped plastic thingie. He has good taste to put the food card in there. Plus, there’s a Subway everywhere. Everytime I get a sandwich there, it’s loaded.
That DVD came with the genesis so I figured it made sense you got it and I hope 4$ is enough to get you a sub I figured I wouldn’t use it since I found it but glad you liked your gifts man. What bearings were in there? I didn’t even look. The cool thing about the genesis is that it’s USA made its the closetest I could get to what I thought you would like from what I read about you. Plus I had to sell most of my yoyos so I only have like 4 throws and yesterday I had 21 lol this guy bought a lot from me which included some greAt throws he got a steal
Sorry for double post but is the gift exchange done? Everyone got their gifts? Super glad with the way that things went down. I can’t believe it worked but I knew it would I feel like a one drop or CLYW gift exchange would be cool, although there would be difficulties I’m sure but I think it would be cool to do one of these types of High feedback exchange with CLYW or one drop. Just an idea tho!
Im exhausted after this one, so i wouldnt organize that haha. Yes, i belive everyone ahs recieved theirs gifts and this exchange was a major success! (except for yoyospirit, but its fixable.)
