Hey @Veldrin I'm sure you would have posted if you had, but you haven't gotten any larger packages in your PO Box have you?
USPS tracking stops when it leaves the USA.
I haven't specifically tried with Aus Post but this may be helpful to anyone shipping to international:
Usually you can take your USPS (or other country's) tracking number, go to the destination country's post service, and track its ongoing progress using the same tracking number. It doesn't get assigned a new number every time it crosses an international border. Anyway this works with SingPost from the USPS, Hong Kong and the Royal Mail or whatever the UK calls their postal service, so it may be helpful to others.
I can back that it's worked with some USPS deliveries I've had (sock dreams told me to input the tracking number into this website)
but also a couple years ago i had something sent from the Netherlands and PostNL said they couldn't track anything once it got to australia, and the auspost website said that the number "wasn't trackable".
Also, I've finished putting together my gift parcel and it's a doozy. I've done things in the past where I've just bought a bunch of things from different places and had them all show up in whatever order they did.
But with sending parcels from australia it's way cheaper if everything's all in the one box.
Satanee, your gifts are away! I managed to battle through both depression and covid (and subsequently being gone from work for 3 weeks) to get you the best gifts I could. I am eager and anxious to see your reaction!
Hey Veldrin I'm sure you would have posted if you had, but you haven't gotten any larger packages in your PO Box have you?

I did! I actually picked one up yesterday evening, but only managed to open it this morning, sorry!
Hell yes! My very humble collection of board games has been slowly growing over the past few years, so this will be the perfect addition.
Thanks so much Bucketman
This is not at all what I sent! Probably sent by your this year Satan!
Aha, yeah I definitely got my wires crossed there, as I’d just received an anonymous message from this year’s Satan that easily aligned with your post.
It appears Santa has gone hybrid and sent me some digital gifts while physical ones are enroute!
It is I, your Santa! The physical item(s) are coming in the mail, but in the meantime, here are two $10 codes for Nintendo EShop Funbux. You mentioned that you have more than one Switch in the house, so you can either use one code for each, or just redeem them both on your primary Switch so the secondary one can play the games too.
I haven't been keeping up on recent switch releases, so this will be great for us! The hard part will be deciding what to get! I'm open to suggestions. I've got the basics (Odyssey, Kart, Party, Pokémon).
Sorry I was late to post, it's been a rough few weeks for us, and haven't been in the Christmas spirit at all. Our tree even fell over today. So this is also a sorry to my Santee as I haven't done any shopping yet at all. Soon!
Last night, a whole bunch of boxes appeared because that's how we shop these days. But one of them was labeled not just to me, but to [First Name] Elvenshae [Last Name] - a sure sign that a Satan has been Secretly sneaking about!
Unfortunately, I didn't notice that until it was quite late and my assistants were in bed fast asleep, so the package needed to wait an additional day to be prised open.
My assistants prepare to reveal the treasures inside:
(They wanted an "Action Shot," so they partially opened the box for the picture.)
Inside, approximately 42 pounds of cannons, trade tokens, and Caribbean fortresses!
And who could my Secret Satan be? Why, 'tis none other than @Rorshach Kringle himself, with a most kind note!
I hope you enjoy this game. I haven't played it myself, but the fact that it is endlessly customizable should really make that quarantine life go by ... well, a little quicker!
From Rorshach Kringle
Age of Sail stuff is extremely my jam. I can't wait to take advantage of some days off coming up to dive into the rulebook, teach my wife to play, and then get roundly beaten!
Thank you, RK, for an wonderfully thoughtful gift. Merry Christmas to you and yours!
It's a spooder.
My partner is usually against rope toys because they require more attention... Skye on the other hand couldn't wait for me to unpackage it...
She already frayed up one of the legs so I had to take it off her for now while I'm working, but she seems to really like it. Thanks Zonugal!
Of wretched light and cursed flame, I turn my gaze to thee,
And send forth fiends with packages, of numbers counting three.
The morrow, day of Pagan Christ, or some damn’d day betwixt,
Shall all arrive, by my dark word, at latest 26th
This is great news! I am the most stressed I have ever been right now trying to sort out a house move. Looks like im now moving next week (though will still have my previous apartment for a short while after to collect the gifts!) so this has really lightened my week up. How exciting!

Got some boxes today, which I pretty much have every day since March 14th! I didn't think anything of it until I opened them and found they were from my secret santa!
Wild Box (well...bag) appears!
What could it be?
A secret Santa present!
Oh boy, my son is going to love this. It's Iron Man lego!
That's not all! A few days ago I got a shipment notification for a box from Target. I thought it was something my wife ordered. Well I was wrong!
What's inside here?
The Super Mario Bros Game and Watch!?
This thing is so cool! It's such a neat little Nintendo collectible that I thought I would miss out on this year. I'm beyond thrilled! I've already got it charged up. The screen is really nice. Maybe Nintendo will release more of these things (like a Zelda one!)
My son begged to put the Iron Man thing together so we did that!
Hey...Seems to be a similar color scheme going on here!
All in all, fantastic gifts! So who was my Santa? It was @jclast ! Thanks so much for the great gifts! Merry Christmas!

Ooooh dang y'all
I've been expecting two packages today, my monthly coffee bean surprise box and some b o o z e, but instead the postman came to my door with a large mysterious parcel!
Inside there was no note that I could find! But I saw the company name on the box and was INSTANTLY EXCITED!
(The hen is new, the owl is old)
EEEEEE I've always wanted one of these Fairmont & Main egg holders (they make them in ducks and chickies and I love them all so much) but it's such a silly frivolous thing that I'd never be able to justify buying it for myself. Charlotte has been languishing on my wishlist for ages. Now she lives in my kitchen next to my weird owl cookie jar! As soon as I buy new eggs I will be putting her to good use!
I can't be 100% sure this is a Satansmas gift due to the lack of card (which is 100% okay!) because I know a couple of other people in my life are sending me gifts but if this was you, The Devil, thank you!!

Also photos guest feature two of my four @tynic Christmas cards and a lot of assorted gifts and gift wrapping paraphernalia

I usually like to get started on gifting before December, but As Usual, 2020 is kicking my arse.
This weekend, though. This weekend i'm gonna ramp things up.
.. hopefully.
I was visited upon by a mysterious stranger carrying an even more mysterious package this afternoon. "I didn't order anything to deserve such visitations," I informed the stranger "Get off my porch!".
"Not my problem!" He said and heaved the rather weighty package at my face, knocking me down on my ass. He turned and headed back down my front steps. "Take it up with Bezos!"he shouted from his van, flipping a pretty respectable bird as he turned over the engine and peeled off. RUDE.
Anyway.
WHAT MYSTERY!
The package in question. Rather typical. Don't know why I took a picture but it seems like the thing to do.
DELICIOUS TREASURE! The Superior M&M(tm)! It was paired with a note from my Satan, but also included their real name which I will not share here just in case! I KNOW WHO YOU ARE SATAN, YET AT THE SAME TIME HAVE NO CLUE. Tricky tricky...
Alright Satanee, I'm basically done with all my classes, so tomorrow I'm going to the REDACTED to buy your REDACTED, and I shall see if they REDACTED REDACTED or if I have to do it myself.
*You do not want me to do it myself.

I'm finding this difficult this year. Even with the suggestions post I just have no ideas. So my person is probably going to get something pretty random, sorry. It's the same with all my family.

I admit that I resorted to the Amazon wishlist with a few extras that I thought they would like based on said wishlist. I'm usually more thoughtful when thinking of gifts based on user's interests or recent postings.

Don't forget you can ask questions through imps or whatever!
But yeah, I'm a bit in the same boat. Santee why are you such a mystery!
But also my santa probably has a bit of a challenge. I wrote a lot of words, but not sure that any of them are that helpful. Sorry satan!
Also holy poop, I know we just had a thread about reminiscing and stuff but I just realized that something like 40% of my past Christmases have involved giving and receiving from you internet weirdos. :heartbeat:
There are Satan's gifts from years past that I use almost all the time and love dearly. Handmade blanket, a wine decanter last year, books that I still go back and read, recipes that I still cook, games I still play, gear for hiking, etc.
You all are a wonderfully lovely bunch of weirdos, indeed. xoxo
Yeah right now I have most of my stuff, but I want to send something to my Satan from someplace local to me. Something they absolutely not get out by them.
Theres a diner that makes good soup. Maybe I'll just ladle some of that into the box.
Lalabox got me a gorgeous bar cart two years back that is currently holding all of my hair tools/skin care stuff/hair flowers and decorations and so I use it basically every single day
Also a heart-piece necklace that I got from Lasbrook in my first Satan's is one of my most-worn pieces of jewelry
Edit: I also just realized I forgot to post pictures of the project I made with Veldrin's gift of wearable tech parts! Shit, gotta do that this weekend
