Regift by Genku July 29, 2003
scandalously repackaging and claiming to have purchased on your own a previously received hideous piece of crapola and giving it to someone else as if you had actually been thinking about what they would enjoy.
Your mother buys you some crappy made in china plastic wal mart creation. You unwrap it, take off any identifying tags, place it in a box from Saks fifth avenue, and "regift" it to someone else.

I am the queen of regifting. That book has made it around New York City all though the regift process. My aunt, who is in her 80's, never regifts even though she has an attic full to the rafters. Look out, it's a regift!

White Trash Regifting 

Application of various disreputable and/or dishonest strategies, employed by the giver in a regifting situation, calculated to deceive the recipient into a) believing that the gift was not known by the giver to be undesirable at the time of giving (e.g., broken, malfunctioning, diseased, leaking, putrid, hazardous, malodorous, untrained, etc.), while, b) concealing the fact that the giver has already received his purchase price back through application of some other white trash artifice. Closely related to white trash rebate, white trash refund, white trash warranty claim, white trash exchange, etc.
Claudette, Claude's double 3/4 cousin, would not have been hesitant to complain that the "resting" gerbil he gave her on her 7th birthday hadn't moved in 3 days, had she known that she was the victim of a white trash regifting and that Claude had already obtained a refund plus a "disposal fee" thrown in as a bonus.
