Ask HN: What do you think about crowdfunding of gifts?

I am thinking of something like "Crowdfunding a user's wishlist" where their friends pool some money from 5$ to whatever price, so help a particular user reach and get the wished item. I lnow this already exists but what ese you think can work

I'm not too clear about what's being asked here - alternate ways of having a group pay for a gift? Well, beyond having everyone pay a portion - not necessarily the same portion - the group could have a fundraising event together and use the funds to buy the gift.
