Gift wrapping kit.
Lucien Beaumont
My girlfriend had the idea while playing earlier that'd it'd be neat if somehow you could get a present wrapping kit. It'd work like an identification or salvage kit. You'd get a set number if uses out of it and you'd double click it and then click an item. The item would then get a giftwrapped graphic and be renamed "Present." You could then gift wrap something as a suprise for a friend, give it to them, and let them open it.

That could be kinda cool to give people a gift; but the graphic and description for it would have to make it distinctly clear that it wasn't a "birthday" present so people couldn't scam others passing off a wrapped lump of coal ( ) for an unopened minipet.

Maybe not have this allll year round.
But if they started to sell them about a month or two before xmas at the merchant. Then you can get people presents for xmas!
Then after the 12 days of xmas are up, they stop selling them until next year.

Also, a "delivery system" could be added. Like, wrap up the present, enter the character name you want it delivered to, pay 100 gold to Fry [Delivery Specialist] and fughedaboudid. When the person logs on a window appears saying "You have a present from X Y". This could work for regular items and stuff also, not just presents.

I like it. It would be a nice touch. Maybe you could leave a short message readable on mouseover.

Very very cute idea.
How FUN would it be to have a grab bag/secret santa party?
/signed
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.

Better be careful of scammers who would place a different item within a box then what you want to buy.
Like, you buy a present which the person said to have a Crystalline Sword in it, only to find a lump of charcoal.
Anyway, signed.

a great implementation for upcomming holidays, though it would be cool if it stayed around as something you can purchase from a merchant (gold sink)rather than merely festive collectable like those ghost in the box or candy cane.
Edit: many ideas can be used from these eg social games like placing items in presents, dropping them down on the ground in an instance and allow participants to choose one in a game of luck for example.
If i am not mistaken a current working system is used in the yahoo online game: Puzzle Pirates, you can even select colour and style of gift wrappers lol. I suppose we can dye ours.

As far as getting scammed by buying something that wasn't supposed to be in the present.... who in their right mind would buy a mystery present for any amount of gold and expect it to not be a scam? I mean seriously.
EDIT: The idea of dyeing the presents is awesome. Alot more useful than being able to dye bags.

Agreed, This is a good one. Have a gift wrapping service in the Guild Hall or town. Then give your gifted item to who ever you want and have them open it up. That really is a nice idea. and a Very good way to SEND items to Guild members through the system. Interesting possibilities this is....

<edit>
The more and more I think of this, It has HUGE potential. Gift wrapping service in GH.
Give the NPC the item, Pick a wrapper and dye it, and then add a TO: <Playername here> option.
Wam bam slam TY mam, that gift wrapped item appears in the TO Persons inventory using the same system as Anets Birthday present spawn script. If their inventory is full its is in the system until a spot opens up for delivery.
Like I said HUGE potential. Posibily the most innovative idea we have seen to date with Oh so many uses and functions.
