TL;DR: @a1xon is a racist and he does not deserve the effort we've put in his gift.
During the past week, me and my girlfriend have put together the gifts for our Secret Santa matches. When we got to the shipping part, we wanted to be sure that they both receive their gifts, so we've opted for direct delivery, which costs a bit more than standard. We couldn't do this without their telephone number, so we've politely contacted them and asked for it.
My girlfriend, @mlemmings has had the wonderful experience of talking to this guy. Not only did he accuse her of fraud, but it looks like he has a problem with gypsies as well. For the record, we are not, but even if we were, that shouldn't be a problem. You should judge every person for their own actions.
We've already paid the shipping costs, but we're not sending the package anymore. @a1xon, you don't deserve even a drop of the time and money we've put into this gift. @martynmage, fyi
This will probably die in user sub, but this is totally not cool. We should be friends in this community!
Proof that we were waiting for the UPS guys to pick up the present.

Why even sign up if you're going to be an ass. Can't understand!

Wow, what a scumbag. @a1xon way to show your true colors man. I hope you get black listed and not OP.
SimonSaysWhatAgain
Send it to the guy that got his gift stolen instead.
Litheen
Wtf, this boggles my mind. Don't people freakin bother to read so they understand how the SS works. It's not that hard!
Str8Grizleh
I'm guessing the ones that sign up without reading shit are the same ones that don't plan to send anything out
BoomslangBean
Sorry your SS turned out to be a dick. If you dont know what to do with the gifts you could register as a backup santa.
CabbagesAreOverrated
That's the current plan. We've contacted Martyn to get a new match. Hope we get to send it in time for Christmas
ausjuausjuausju
Sorry that happened @OP. Some people can be inconsiderate assholes
Rips4w
What a dick. I hope he tries to pull a hangnail off and it degloves his entire finger.
mlemmings
I hope not, happened to me and I wouldn't wish it on anyone. Ouchie :))
DrawOCoward
To the front page! So that a1xon can see how much of a douche they are and maybe start thinking about their actions!

Maybe a fake internet point can help you achieve the strength to earn your money back. Hope you have a Happy Holiday (other than this).
mlemmings
Thank you for the fake internet point. Much better than getting the money back. :)
CabbagesAreOverrated
I shall put it on my fake internet wall of fame. Much obliged!
AlbanB
send that to me instead , we are even closer :P
ddrfr33k
To the front page with you! That was uncalled for.
kawaiimoogle
It shames me to come from the same country as this person - calling somebody gypsies is extremely rude and racist - shame, shame, shame!
mlemmings
We love Austria and think people there are awesome. Not gonna diss an entire population for the sake of one. :) Frohe Weihnachten!
AchmedTheTerrifyingTerrorist
How secret would it be if it was reciprocal? What an asshole. Usersub, work your magic.
turbobackmy02bugeye20psi
wow this dude is a dick hole
AwsmEmily
That's pretty lame, I understand being cautionary but that was over the line. Maybe you can be a back up santa? :)
CabbagesAreOverrated
We've already contacted Martyn about that. Wouldn't want the present to go to waste :) Hope it will bring a bit of joy to someone else

ClassicSwanson
This is why we can't have nice things.
mlemmings
We can. It just takes a bit of convincing :)
WorstShotEver
@a1xon you just missed out on something great by being a douchenozzle supreme. Merry Xmas!
knitzie
Mep, sorry to read that :/ Thank you (and your SO) for taking so much effort, taking time and money to spend it on a random stranger. >
knitzie
I wish you both and your family a very happy christmas :)
mlemmings
Thank you, @knitzie! Have a great Christmas too!

Oh we got you @OP ;) @a1xon where you at?
ScottOlson2010
keep it for a backup gift some people dont get gifts sent to them from their matches..i feel like this guy is not even gonna send one...
CabbagesAreOverrated
We've already asked Martyn for a new match. Thanks for the idea!
MartynMage
Hey, sorry for the delay, I've responded to your email :)
whopper68
Veridict? I just hope OP doesnt get black listed for this.
Payinwampum
In the future, use your own number. They will most likely not need a number but do require one. Any number. And yes he's a jerk
mlemmings
That was the plan in case we got no answer, but we thought having their number is better since this is international shipping. Thanks! :)
Payinwampum
Also a racist
asphikenna
This is just shitty. It's okay to be suspicious...but not a complete boogernut.
mlemmings
I'm so gonna use "boogernut" from now on :)))
CabbagesAreOverrated
You're totally right. We understand the suspicious part, no one would/should share info without some sort of proof.
AsAnArtTeacherIApprove
+1 for boogernut, and for understanding the suspicion. @a1xon was a complete asshole, but I wouldn't give my phone number to a stranger
adroq
Wow @OP that is maddening. Maybe get with @martynmage and find out if there's anyone who didn't get anything and you could ship it to them?
CabbagesAreOverrated
Hey there! We've already contacted Martyn. We won't let the gift go to waste :)
adroq
That's awesome. Hope you guys have an amazing Christmas. Thanks for being stellar Secret Santa senders.
TrivyAl
@op well everyone has already said what needs to be said. So happy holidays to you & @mlemmings.
mlemmings
Thanks! Have a merry Christmas and a great new year! :)
CabbagesAreOverrated
Thank you, @TrivyAl! Hope you have a wonderful time during the Holidays as well
TrivyAl
@mlemmings and @op Thanks you two!!! Yall seem like a sweet couple with a good sense of humor and swift sense of justice! Lol
mlemmings
Thanks! :)
TrivyAl
Bahaha point proven!
