Earlier I told you that Zynga changed the stats on the Don's Gift items that were already released. Because the previous stats sucked, many didn't bother to collect them. You can see from my Inventory History run I didn't go out of my way to get 5 of each item when they were available.
I knew from previous testing that you could still get a gift once it was off the Free Gift Page but I didn't know how long the posts were good for. I still don't have a clear answer but was able to collect 2 Tracker Bikes and 2 Hunter Boots from old requests.
You need to find active daily players in your mafia and scroll their walls. It looks like the Tracker Bike and Hunter Boots posts are still good.
I didn't have any luck with the Triplets. Clicking on the posts produced the message "Sorry, but the Don's patience has its limits. This feed has expired". It's nice that Zynga changed the stats of these items but it's not fair of them to prevent players from getting the older ones. If an item wasn't helpful when it was offered, you can't blame players for not wanting it. If there were a warning that stats could possibly change this would be a different story.

agreed agreed agreed... once again we are penalized by zynga for being smart and savvy players... they should award all players with the max of each gift offered so far for their screw up... but I'm sure that won't happen.
