Yo, heads up!
The Scout launching a gift

The Giftapult is a tool item which may be used to pack one tradable item in the user's backpack and deliver it to a random online player. It is represented by a miniature wooden medieval-style catapult.

Description

When used with an item in the user's backpack, the Giftapult is replaced in the backpack with a Loaded Giftapult. Once the Loaded Giftapult is used, the gift is sent, wrapping worse for wear, to a random online player instantly, appearing in that player's backpack as a Delivered Giftapult Package (of which has a green box as opposed to the blue A Carefully Wrapped Gift).
