Re: B list wedding invite
We had a family member do this to us - someone who my DH thought he was close to! The whole RSVP getting taped over with a new date. We found out that everyone else got their invites weeks earlier and we were - along with a few other people who should have been on the A-list, in fact, B-list. They said that they were "at capacity"...but they invited over 300 people.
We didn't even reply. They called us and we never answered the call and never sent a gift.
Dicks!
They also had "No boxed gifts please" on the invite. Fkn tacky.

Wow, that's tacky to tape over the original RSVP date. At least send it out a little later than the first round, but still before the RSVP.
I wouldn't send a gift and I wouldn't go
Yeah Seriously!
She could have at least lied and said she sent it to the wrong address!!! Whooaa. Totally obvious and pretty ballsy!

Re: B list wedding invite
I would check off "yes" and then tape over it with a "no".

 I would have made sure to get them the biggest, most cumbersome gift I could find (under $75  )

Super tacky. I wouldn't send anything. I didn't think people actually DID "B" lists.
I was a 2015 LIW Bride and TONS of women did B lists. Some even made two sets of RSVP cards knowing they would be sending out two sets of invitations---it was crazy IMO. If I wasn't close enough to someone to make my "A" list, they weren't close enough to come to my wedding!
ETA, I'd send a card but no gift. When I'm invited to a wedding in the "first round" of invites and can't go, I'd definitely send a gift but if I knew I was a "B" lister, I wouldn't send anything.

Re: B list wedding invite

I had a similar thing happen recently with a baby shower. Never got an invite but then got a text after the RSVP date asking if I was going. The shower was only a week away and I already had plans, so I said no and sent no gift. They claimed the invite must have gotten lost in the mail, but then a couple weeks later, they texted DH asking for our address for another party invite. So if they had really sent the first invite, wouldn't they have already had our address? :Hah: That erased any guilt I had been feeling about missing the baby shower.
Ok I admit I did that once to someone for a birthday party invitation because I forgot to send them the invite. But in your case maybe they called to ask for your address because they legit thought they sent it to the wrong address the first time??
In response to the OP do not feel compelled to send something. Ive been in the same position and did not send a gift.

Re: B list wedding invite
I probably wouldn't send a gift - but it has nothing to do with being on the B list.
If you can't go to the wedding, and didn't even know they were engaged, i'd probably send a congrats card and leave it at that.

Honestly I think a B list is just so tacky. No, I would not send a gift.

I think a shower is different because another person is doing the inviting.
When I was throwing a shower, I was getting addresses from multiple people. I would try not to hold it against your friend if she said you were invited.
