Most embarrassing toy buying experience.

Contributor: Istanbull Istanbull
Through the mail, from a shop, toy party or borrowed from a friend. We all have at least one horror story. I'll start.


I bought a couple DVDs from a major toy seller online.. one of the big ones. The seller included a whole bunch of extra freebees(crap) that I really didn't care about. Things like a nipple sucker, blow-job simulator, cock ring, condoms and a cheep pocket rocket. I ordered my DVDs over the phone and informed the sales agent that if they were to send me all this stuff, put it in a box because the envelope they used on my last order has started to rip. I went to the post office and had the yellow card in my box indicating I had a large item to pick up in the office. The postmaster goes to the shelf and grabs this heavy bubble-envelope and plops it on the counter. I could already see the top was torn completely open and when it hit the counter, all its contents poured out. There was a line of old ladies right behind me gasping. I couldn't believe it, they stuffed this envelope so full I struggled to try to shove everything back into it... all the while mumbling out loud "I told thos eassholes if they were going to send this shit to me to put it in a box.... AND THEY FORGOT MY DVDS!" Just then the postmaster says "oh, wait a minute." He goes back to the shelf and grabs a thin envelope that had two DVDs in it. Lucky for my, it takes a lot to embarrasse me. I think any one else would have died.

Your scenario is the EXACT reason I will NEVER order from Adam and Eve again! Well, that and the fact they refuse to offer faster delivery than Parcel Post to Alaska (takes 5-8 weeks to get here).

I was going through them first before I moved on to the company that did this to me. I too switched for the same reason.

I did contact Eden's Fantasy about it and they assured me it'll come in a box. When I finally pick a new toy, I'll see if they hold true to that.

Every order that I have received from Eden has been discreetly packaged in a sturdy box.

If it's just a couple of DVDs, they may send it in a padded envelope which is VERY sturdy and will probably not split. They don't send a lot of extra stuff with the order--maybe a magazine (Sexis) or a brochure for products. I've received a couple of Porn Club shipments this way.

I don't have an embarrassing buying experience (yet) but I have other embarrassing sex stories. It's par for the course and makes a great story when they happen (and your cheeks aren't red anymore!)

No one will ever know what you are ordering unless they, too are EFers! I have met a few postal employees who love EF and wink at me whenever I go in to pick up a package. The conversations are amazing as we try NOT to let everyone know what we are talking about!

When the cashier at the sex store said, "I don't need to see your ID, I know your face," I knew I'd been buying too many sex toys.

It's more humorous than embarrassing, but not only do they know me by face at my local b&m sex toy shop (which is kind of a dive but still fun to stop by), but they've started giving me the employee discount

When the cashier at the sex store tried to give me his number and told me he services neglected husbands all the time, I began thinking it was time to stop shopping at one.

When he made me open up my sweater, turn around and lift it up to show him my lower back in front of a line of customers claiming he needed to check for weapons... and didn't do it to anyone else... I knew right then I wasn't going to shop at one ever again.

I did get my order and it came in a nice box, thanks EF!!!!!!!!

What the Hell? You should have left right away...unless you were into him!

My worst experiences shopping aren't actually related to sex toys, but Victoria's Secret workers who insist on measuring me and then tell me how their boobs feel in the latest bra. I guess it's hard to see where the line is.

i agree that EF packaging is discrete compared to some. My only issue is the description on the box always reads 'massager' A 22 year old girl picking up a package that read 'massager'? it doesn't take a genius to figure that out. I'd prefer it say novelty, or bath product, or clothing (if it's lingerie). I know I sound paranoid. Regular people are concerned about their own lives and aren't worrying about what I'm getting shipped. But I live in a small town, so I know basically everyone, and some of them really are that noisy.
