Crap presents for dc

[Cheeseplant]

Hi
I know it's a long time since Xmas but this has been bugging me for a while so need to get of chest.
Partner and I finally have dc after a long struggle and this was it's 1st Xmas. Many of our friends already have children and over the years we've been generous with gifts for them all, spending lot of time, effort choosing gifts.
Our dc received such a poor lot of presents. Some were clearly recycled as had no tags. It's not the amount of money that Is the issue but the fact that our friends thought it accepatble to pass on their cast offs. Really annoyed and it really makes me not want to give their children nice presents. Two of the worst presents were from "god parents", I always try to get something a bit special for my god children.
I just want to emphasise that it is not the money spent but the lack of thought. None of our friends are hard up either.

I think it all depends on how it was done. If someone said "oh I'd like to give your DS a puzzle/toy/hat that my own DCs have played with and loved, is that ok" then I'd be fine and very happy they were so thoughtful/non-wasteful.

On the other hand if someone just wrapped up something clearly unwanted and pretended it was new, I'd be a bit annoyed. Not so much because it wasn't new, more because if THEIR DC didn't want it, why would they think it was good enough for MY DC?
