Over the years I've sent you cards and gifts for your birthdays and on Christmas. Since I've always chosen the gifts from the list you sent and/or have made sure to send a gift receipt I assume that you've gotten what you wanted. So I am a bit confused as to why you have never once sent a thank you note (card, email, text or even a phone call).
If you don't want gifts on these occasions then you should consider not sending the gift list. Or perhaps you received so many gifts it was just too burdensome to have to thank everyone.
Do you realize that when someone gives you a gift it takes time to choose and purchase it, even when you've taken most of the guess work out of it by sending a gift list? Sending a thank you text might take you 20 seconds. That is significantly less effort than it took to purchase and send your gift.
Can you make more of an effort in the future perhaps? Or would you prefer to get no gifts at all? Please do let me know.

Does that sound too harsh? Truth - I would never send it, but I needed to get it out of my head.
