What is Weird: "Gift Hauls"

Am I the only person who thinks that this phenomenon is really creepy?!

I am subscribed to probably a dozen gurus who regularly accept "gifts" from subscribers. Sometimes the items the gurus receive are used, and other times they are brand new.

I don't mean to pass judgment on people who send the gifts, or those that receive them, but the idea is really strange to me...

I could definitely elaborate on this, but for how I'll keep this short and sweet!

If you are inclined, share your thoughts in the comments ;)
