Like, you buy a present which the person said to have a Crystalline Sword in it, only to find a lump of charcoal.

Sorry but a present is a present.
Player 1: "Hey wanna buy my present?"
Player 2: "No, presents are for free or it wouldn't be a present anymore."
Player 1: "But it's a Crystalline 15^50 blabla..."
Player 2: "Yeah and pigs can fly"
Imagine christmas where you'd actually have to pay to get something
Guess not.

Oh, and /signed with the designation that it says "Gift from" or "Gift to" or has a different color than Birthday or Holiday presents, or is otherwise distinguishable from ANet presents.

I was thinking the grab bag idea too after reading this. Just think, you could hold a grab bag party among your guildies. I definity agree with people on allowing the user to costumize the appearance of the gifts. I think the Npc that allows you to wrap the "item" should give you a big selection of various skins and colors to pick from for your preasent. Like if I want to wrap something up for a grab bag for guildies I'd want it to have a "Bag" skin. If i wanted to give someone a halloween gift, i'd want it to look like the wintersday gift except black and orange.
For an additional cost you should also be allowed to add "To:" and "From:" as a mouseover effect on the gift.
There's a lot Anet could do with this, Make it happen this year for wintersday A-net!

You could even add an 'opening' animation, something like mixing an emote and and efect like Squash Serum + Dance.
The characer crouche, the box appear, and the item makes a 'falling to the ground' animetion (but it really will be in the character inventory xD)

OK I admit this is a thread necromancy but the idea is marvellous and I think it could be brought back for the people who joined GURU recently for a discussion.
Of course a big /signed from me
I would use presents in some guild lotteries etc. There would be so many uses of them...

/signed. Let us dye the presents, too. Just so people will buy orange, purple, green, yellow, and blue dyes and I can finally sell them out of my storage.

I like it. It'd be nice to drop my GW friends from other countries a little gift, and exchange online presents with friends. Have a good laugh and all that. XD
