I checked apply group gifting to all gifts over 10 dollars on my registry. I thought it would be a nice option- and that it was just that- an option. But somehow everyone who meant to outright buy a gift individually, funded it fully as a group gift instead. I didn't read every single FAQ for the Amazon registry... but this means that we, the recipients, are responsible for any taxes and fees for the gift. I just get the cost of the gift on a gift card when it's fully funded and have to put it in my cart and buy it like normal!!
This is partially my oversight but also I don't understand why all these instances of a single person trying to buy a single gift ALL went through the group funding. There's no way I can eat the cost of taxes and fees for all these gifts, and NO way I can go back to my guests and ask them to pay more towards their gifts.
My FH just found out his dad is in ICU and on a ventilator so he is absolutely not going to know because he's already stressed and that's 100000% more important. How on Earth do I fix this? Everyone's wondering if I received the gifts, thinking they just shipped them all to my house directly.
