Amazon does this at scale. By the title <and site name>, I thought you were going to enable a quick post, sell, or donate of unwanted gifts. That would be cool. I typically hold on to unwanted gifts for months and then simply donate or dispose. I bet there are $Bs of unwanted gifts sitting in houses in the US right now.

That's a feature we are looking to add soon. Please keep a close eye on this to be released in a few weeks.
Seems like the key to doing that well will be to remove all friction on capturing an image (or linking to a comprehensive product database) then making shipping a breeze. I have to say inertia is a bitch, and keeping these things on your shelf is an attractive alternative/competitor to getting rid of them.
