Reduplication only appears in the second example because the action repetition wants to be expressed with each one of the objects.  It is what we call distributive plural. However, in the first example the object is treated as a single group, and because of this there is no reduplication of the form. This we call collective pural. Let us see another example of the same:

    "- Did you tell all the neighbours about today's meeting?
        - Yes, I told them one by one yesterday."
