I really want to participate too, and no offense at all to anyone, but I do have to agree with this.
The $25 deposit added to the $15 to $20 price you spend on the gifts + around $5 shipping really puts it out of people's price range because it puts it close to $50 for those who don't have 500 posts, whereas if you did have 500 posts, you could spend the minimum of $15 + $5 for shipping and be through with $20, which is much more affordable for everyone. The deposit more than doubles the money spent and while you do get it back, you don't get it until the gift is received, so you are out of pocket that $50 for awhile.
I sort of understand the premise behind the deposit, but maybe it could perhaps be lowered since it is more than what you are required to spend on a gift in the first place.
