Everyone knows a geek. Maybe it's the friend who rewatches Star Wars every Christmas, the cousin who's always talking about anime, or the colleague whose desk is covered in tiny figures. Buying for them can feel tricky. Get it right, though, and a geek gift is one of the most personal presents you can give.
