For me:
I don't like it. I would rather the person gave me nothing. I was so hurt when I found out a gift from someone close was a regift.
I don't give to get a gift in return; so it was hurtful that the person thought they had to give me something that someone intended for them just because I gave them a gift.
If it's things I don't want or need, I'll just give it to someone but not say it's a gift. Like I'll just say "I got 2 bread machines as gifts, you need one?" or "someone gave me these earrings and I don't like them, but they look like you." But I always let it be known that someone gave it to me so they don't think I got it for them.
I'm kinda weird about gifting tho.

this is how i believe it should be done and not give it as a real "present." it's a hey--you want this girl?
eta: i put in a LOT of thoughts into gifts. a lot. i sit and think, remember past convos, pay attention to present convos, etc. so regifting would hurt my feelings too
