Sex Toys / Safer Sex Supplies

The question arises periodically - "plaster casters; how do ya do it?". Now I have a website I can send 'em to. Note, by the way, I haven't had a chance to try this penis casting kit, and am just writing here about their site. They do link to a commentary by Carly, product tester for eYada.com - you will want to pay attention to temperatures during the process, apparently :) . Offered here via secure shopping cart are kits with everything you will need in both a regular and also in a 'brag about it' size, and also refills. The kit, by the way, is available in both regular and vibrating models. They promise a how-to video soon, currently offer half a dozen other miscellaneous toys, and also are developing other similar products. Contact information for the site is given by way of phone, email, snail, & ICQ. If this kit works as well as they claim, this should turn out to be a popular product. » More Info!

Some toy stores just sell you stuff. This place is a resource that will let you buy things. The women who run this site believe that the more you know, the more fun you have, the more you will buy. Every section of this store has great information on the products and well written advice on how to choose them. Too often we see toystores with scans of the boxes and a price list. Here you will know what you are getting and how to use it. And if you are in Wisconsin they have a retail outlet in Madison. So you can see it first hand and wait for that special occasion to order it later. The webstore software lets you see your cart contacts at all times and the site has very clear terms and conditions available. You can order online or by telephone or in person. The website also hosts web advice columns by the two founders, a calendar of workshops on sexuality they promote in their Madison store, and bios of the outstanding women who run this company.

This toy store has a thorough return and shipping policy that you can read right up front. The entire site is a webstore application. Each item has a brief description and a thumbnail image. The images link to larger images. The lingerie did not have any size choices. I guess it is all "one size fits most". Telephone, fax and snail mail orders are an option. » More Info!

A nicely laid out site from Australia. Prices are all listed in Australian Dollars. There is an assortment of toys and plugs and lubes and other miscellaneous items similar to many other sites, but Secure Pleasures also offers a unique assortment of custom-built sexfurniture. These are the sorts of things not commonly found ready-made - stocks, kneeling boards, St Andrews Cross, and so forth. Shipping is $3/Australia and up to $22 international, although shipment for any item over $150 is for free, regardless of destination! Ordering can be made by secure shopping cart, or you may follow up a fax or email order with a snailmail cheque. » More Info!

The real life retail store is located in San Francisco, but there are lots of stores that sell Stormy products, and most recently the Stormy website has started to offer online shopping. I have one Stormy bustier myself, and I like it lots. The website includes a photo gallery of fashions from the last several years, a good selection of bdsm links, and the shopping area which includes both bdsm gear and leather. There is a wonderful selection of leather corsets, along with a lacing guide page. They also have leather lingerie, bustiers and more, and a selection of latex. The return/refund/exchange policy was clearly stated, as was a privacy policy. Online ordering is still not the best - the only true online option is via email. Otherwise you can phone, fax or mail your order. » More Info!

Apple of Eden is run by a woman and her grown daughters, and has a bit more than the usual dildos and naughty bits. One of the best things I noticed is that they know people aren't all the size of Kate Moss - browsing amongst their lingerie and such you will find sizes up to and including 3X. People of size can have a hard time finding erotic wear [I know!], and shops such as this need to be encouraged. In addition to lubes and a few videos or CDs, and their erotic clothing, they are now also starting to move into aromatherapy and other natural products to enhance your love life. The return policy was clearly stated, there was good contact info (including an 800 nbr for customer service inquiries), and they have a place on the site to check the status of your order once you've placed it as well. Shopping cart application works fine, ordering is via credit card, check or money order, online by secure form or by mail. » More Info!

On the web for well over a year, this site has a good selection of lots of different bdsm/fetish items. Gags, blindfolds, cuffs and collars, hardware, corsets, slutty shoes & boots and more. Autumn, the site owners, adds a healthy dose of personality to the site which made me like it even more. Besides just the shopping (shopping cart application, secure ordering, privacy policy), there is also a large editorial section with discussion, Autumn's diary, kink links, and even a selection of photos of Autumn (which are lovely, btw). » More Info!

This site has a large selection of toys, videos and BDSM gear aimed at gay men. Everything is categorized and there are photos with the product descriptions. There is a shopping cart application to make things easy. Other site features include horoscopes, free personals (broken into regions), a photo gallery which contained 15 hardcore shots, and free chat through gay.com, which I visited and it was busy.. over 100 rooms to choose from. Ordering can be done online (insecure) or via phone or mail. Privacy policy was stated on the front page, and so was a phone number and real life address. » More Info!

These folks have a cute little logo guy in Blue Cupid. With a secure shopping cart system in place, they offer a few categories of videos and a longer list of toys [dildos, plugs, 'butt stuff', vibrators, 'specialty jelly products', and others]. In addition to categorical listing, they also have a useful search function for the catalog by title, description, actor's name, etc. They promise plain brown wrapper shipping, and will not bill credit cards for back orders until the order is filled. After your first order, they assign you a unique Frequent Customer name and password, and plan a system where points accumulate per sale towards free or discounted bonuses. A nice clean site, but if they're going to bill themselves as the 'Ultimate Adult Online Catalog', they should expand their selection a bit more; they don't have nearly as many videos as other sites. » More Info!

Tantra.com aims to be a resource for as much information on Tantric, Kama Sutra, Sacred Sex, and other similar activities as possible. Videos, books, music, products, workshops, a bulletin board discussion list, associated links, and quite a lot more in a neat, attractive, very professionally done website. My only complaint is that the only instructors and workshops listed are those who pay for the privilege; there are certainly many more out there, and their bulletin board is full of people looking for further resources in their individual towns. Overall I was quite positively impressed though. » More Info!

This web store offers some really neat products, but you'll find it pretty short on customer service info, size charts, product descriptions, and other key pieces of information. Some contact info is available, so if you really want some of the products I'd recommend contacting the company directly and getting further information from them. I like the idea behind the site. It is very friendly, sex positive, and comfortable for couples to surf together. They have an articles section that is a bit of a resource as well, which is nice. The product line is excited. You'll find board games, sexy dice, bridal shower/bachelor party games, lover's kits (rose petals, chocolate tattoos, massage kits, pubic hair trimmers), books, lubes, massage oils, and stripper workout videos. Unfortunately, since few of these products are described well it is hard to make good choices about them. There are a couple of product reviews, but I wasn't blown away. -- Vamp » More Info!

This site is gay owned and operated and designed to serve primarily the gay male of the UK and the European Union. In addition to the plugs and lubes and suchlike that you can find many places they have a focus on their specific audience. I found articles on picking the right lube for gay sex, and similar articles on butt plugs and vibrators and such. Terms for shipping and returns and such are all very clearly stated and many manners of contacting the site management are listed. Appears to be well put together and sounds quite responsible. To US readers - please contact them about your orders. I didn't see anything that said they didn't ship to the US, but simply everything I found was focused on UK and European customers. - Peter

These folks have one product currently, but it seems to be a nice one. It's a gynecological chair, with thigh stirrups and tie-off points, which folds flat into a thin package [60kg] for storage under the bed or behind a bookcase or such. It is available in black or white. They offer email customer service in English, German, French, or Dutch. They are based in the Netherlands, but have importers in Pennsylvania, who will handle all US orders. Ordering elsewhere in the world is by completing an online order form, which will lead to individual contact to work out billing details. Alternatively, some shops are said to carry the product. I'd love to have a chance to field-test the chair - looks like a fine product. - Peter
