I have noticed... and this is excluding limitations of finances...
Gifts from allists tend to be higher $, but gifts from autists tend to be much MUCH more personally relevant.
Notable autistic gifts over the past few years include...
A piece of quartz that reminded that friend of our friendship.
A different toy that was a replacement of one I didn't know that friend knew I had lost.
A 2nd hand game I had been pining over but couldn't bring myself to buy.
