How often do you purchase off site products?

This is the only adult shop that I've used.

We used to buy all of ours from stores. It was almost liek a little bit of foreplay getting to go shopping! But there were creepers there, and it always seem like they hire some giggly little girl thats going to smirk at what i'm buying. Why do they even hire people like that in places like that? makes no sense. Anyways, we've bought tons from stores, and only recently started buying online. Was searching around for a new one, and found EF!

There is one store that is 'somewhat' on my way home from work that usually has nice and friendly chicks working who are very helpful. This helps offset the creepy lurkers you find around there. I sometimes like to go to that store to check out a toy personally, but I haven't been to it in a couple years.

There are a handful of vendors in my area that I trust, but mostly I buy online

I use to go to the sex shops in Manhattan until I found out that it's cheaper to order the toys online.

Never. I only know of one store in my area and I haven't exactly heard great things about it. Besides, I feel like I get the best variety and products from EF.

I use to when I use to live in the cities but then I moved to no-man's land and the one sex shop that exist closed down little over a decade ago. One thing I learned about shopping online vs. in person at a store is you normally have a much much bigger selection.

I used to go every few months but being without a car now sucks. Thank goodness for Eden!

Never, unless we count lingerie. There isn't a dedicated sex toy store in my town (hurray bible-belt) and the one "adult" store we have is mostly for videos and it's FULL of creepers.

Once you go eden, you never go back. I don't miss the overpriced toys, the bad service, the not reviewed toys of where I used to go to.

Honestly, EF has changed everything for this toy loving couple. Upon discovering EF, we were doing probably 50% shopping here, another 20% each at a certain couple of other online sites, and 10% at our local adult toy store...very nice, open, bright and staffed with SUPER NICE folks, but horribly overpriced. WELL.....it didn't take long for us to become hardcore EF fanatics and we WANT to fully support THIS site and keep it going, and so we shop NO WHERE ELSE anymore. We don't need to. EVERYTHING we want is HERE...from the goodies to the forums. NOTHING BEATS EF. It is AMAZING.

Speaking of containers...it is the SIZE thing that gets us. We with EVERY item on EF were compared with that amazing REAL SIZE tool (against a credit card..etc). It is SO helpful, but a lot of items still don't show up with a size comparison.

We have a local store here that was obviously inspired by the Ann Summers stores in the UK. Not to many "open and fun" type stores here in the USA as there are elsewhere.

That was the big drawback to our local stores, nice as they were, before we discovered EF. The stores were outrageously priced. I bought a TICKLE MY PICKLE book there once (years ago), for like $18.99. I peeled the price sticker off the front (I had price stickers on my books), and under it was the price from the online shop that the STORE had bought it from...and it was $9.99!!!!!!! He had almost double the RETAIL price!!!! Glad we found EF.

We don't mind the brick and mortar stores. It's fun to browse around
