@Made Ya Blush - your package is on it's way!
Also, shipping to Canada sucks. Next year I'm sending my gift by moose.

Tin, got the tracking number for your gift should be there USPS this week. The receipt probably has prices on it, so pretend to ignore it. 
Hey, I was the one that asked for dick pics
I thought you were the one sending out dick pics.
They aren't just pics, they're ART
I stand corrected.

@Dirona
Your packages have shipped.
BUT
Expedited shipping would have VASTLY inflated the price.
If not on time then please be patient.
Yours in Holidaitry,

I ran into this yesterday, buying the How To Train Your Dragon books for my son...one of them was out of stock, but a 3rd party seller helpfully had the book at seven thousand dollars. I typed that out so you wouldn't think I accidentally put an extra 0 on there.
Seriously, WTF?

@ThatNickGuy, your gift should arrive some day. The tracking email I got said the 18th, the website says the 19th, and the actual tracking itself says the 10th.
No worries! Shipping to/in Canada is insanely expensive. And this way I will have time to properly adore it after the insanity of Advent/Christmas Eve.
As I understand it, if you are a Marketplace seller, you can avail yourself of many softwares that will watch the price of the items you are selling for you, and relist/adjust them up or down accordingly for "optimum" sales. Sometimes, much like HFT, these 'bots will get into wars with one another (or Amazon itself), leading to amusing results such as this one.I ran into this yesterday, buying the How To Train Your Dragon books for my son...one of them was out of stock, but a 3rd party seller helpfully had the book at seven thousand dollars.

Last minute query--allergies?
Last minute query--allergies?
Nope. Well, idk, nothing that I know of. Maybe Himalayan camel semen? I haven't had that since I was a kid, so I could've developed an allergy I guess.

Pretty sure the Bumble candy-thing I got you a few years back was made from Himalayan camel semen, you're probably fine.
My SS gift arrived today. They are all excellent choices. Thank you very much to my Secret Santa, who is still a secret thanks to Amazon's packaging. I'll try to get pictures this weekend.
Btw, I don't think you need to repost the anonymous tags. Mine have shown up normally even if the source was anonymous.
Well, they are the ships of the desert.
(coulda went with a "hump" joke but...naahh)
Mmm! Minty!

I haven't even looked for anything yet. I'm sorry. Depression has gotten the better of me in the past week. And I've never been going with buying things for people.

@LittleSin you should be getting a fedex package on Friday, assuming weather and delivery people cooperate.
That parcel is part 1 of 2.
The second one is being a twit and not telling me when it should arrive, but hopefully before the 24th.

It's still a secret, not because of Amazon, but because your Secret Santa was a doorknob that day and forgot to check the "it's a gift" option, so I forgot to include a card.
Merry Christmas to you and your family from the Queen of the Doomweasels and all the little doomweasels.
Thanks again. I suspected you were my Secret Santa, but I was not sure because the package did not include a mustelid terribilus.
Hey, hey, hey! You stick to herding children; I'll stick to herding doomweasels.
It's not my fault they kept chewing their way out of the boxes.
In his defense, @stienman was apparently @LittleSin 's SS and included a child as part of the shipment.
