I prefer online because there are wayyy more options...
Do you prefer to buy sex toys from online or regular stores and why?

Definitely afraid to shop in a "real" store. Online is best for me...

We used to buy in physical stores, but now only shop online. The selection is far greater, usually better prices/quality, and you don't have to go into the "questionable" stores. Our main adult store here allows smoking, so everything stinks that you buy.

I prefer online because I can check for the best price, there is a larger selection and I can do research on all the items. But I do prefer buying or renting porn from a local store.

online better selection

I like both actually, there's only one store near us that I actually like so most purchases will be made online. I have to feel comfortable in the store to be able to shop there. The ladies who work there are all awesome. Nice, talkative, fun. I love going in there even when we don't need anything. lol

I have only been in a store once. I have always been very modest and could'nt look at anything I felt uncomfortable.

online, there is a better selection

I've only bought sex toys online. That way I can read reviews, get better discounts, and in the case of EF it's just so much easier to figure out if the toys are made of a safe material or not. The only thing I buy from an actual store is lingerie.

Its cheaper to buy online, and in person I feel awkward.

I mostly shop online, mainly because the only sex shops I know of are downtown, which is a bus and subway ride away for me. I do enjoy going to the shops whenever my buddies and I go out for the day, though.

I ONLY buy online. I tried buying in-stores several years back and bought one vibe and went to several shops and then I decided never again would I do that. It's much more private online and I don't like people knowing that kind of personal business in the stores. I hate the way men look at you in there and they have little to choose from. Also I don't like HAVING to look at so much nudity. Sorry, but that stuff is not something I like. Online you aren't forced to. Online you can search what you want and after a while you learn which sites have a porno going on on every page. I also just don't feel comfortable in a store looking. I can't even think straight because I feel strange. I prefer doing my business online and haven't ever set foot back in one of those stores in years. Also, the lingerie was getting expensive as hell in stores and I found it to be much cheaper online and I'm able to find very unique pieces unlike in the stores.

Online rocks, It's very annoumous. I would freak if I ran into someone I knew. Online shopping has a better variety. I grew up in a small chuch town where ppl love to gossip.
08/16/2011
I prefer both but my wife likes to shop on line, and toys are usually cheaper on line, and depending on the store online usually has a better selection.
08/16/2011
Online better selection, and no one around to stare at me and see what I am ordering. Plus I can shop for underwear wearing my underwear! I am very uncomfortable in a porn shop also.
08/16/2011
Stores are more expensive and awkward/embarassing. Online is sooo much better. That's why I love EF!
08/17/2011
I'm only really comfortable online.
08/17/2011
Online all the way.
08/17/2011
Mainly online, and pretty much on Eden. What can I say, I love it here
12/05/2011
in stores there are always creepy people staring at you, and i find that disturbing when you want to look around in peace!
12/06/2011
Onilne definitely. Better privacy, better selection, and a much better community
12/06/2011
While I have gone to brick and mortar stores, it was usually just for the experience. Shopping online is by far the way to go. I hate buying things without knowing a ton of info about it. The reviews and community here on EF is by far the best on the internet. It makes shopping here fun and educational.
12/06/2011
Online stores are much more convenient and private. Also sometimes cheaper. but going to a store allows you to see the product before buying.
12/06/2011
There are not any stores in the surrounding areas where I live. The closest would be a Spencers in the mall which is just a novelty store and that's still 45 minutes away. Online I can shop anytime I want in the comfort of my home plus I get all the advice I could possibly want from reading the reviews here. I don't shop anywhere else now that I've found EF!
12/06/2011
Online all the way, we know way too many people, prices are usually better too!
12/06/2011
I only buy from EF.

Our first toys were bought in a physical toy store, and if there was a store that existed with shelves as diversely stocked as Eden is, I'd so shop there! But since there isn't, I'll stick with Eden and other trusted sites unless I find a toy I've been looking at online, in a store, for less cost.
12/06/2011
We sometimes have fun outings to the sex shop but mostly I get a lot of my stuff nowadays from EF and other places online.
