I have just finished the video review on the free Pink Performers Lust vibe, and I must say that I find the dot of silicone to try in the corner a waste of it! Not to mention that the entire toy has an AMAZING concept, but just fails as a vibe because of the below minimal buzzes!

Do you think "try me" pokeables are a waste of the material too?

Not really, they are designed to be sold in a store not online. So for store it's a great feature. Also if you're going to flame test your toy, it's always nice to burn the button before you flame test the toy to get a feel if it's going to melt. I always flame test both just in case, but atleast I know if im going to melt my toy ahead of time.

This came on the Bunny finger vibe(the free thing with any purchase right now).
I didn't mind it or thing of it, but you're kind of right. It is a bit of a waste...

But I guess for some people who don't already know of the feel of silicone this would be awesome.

So I picked other..

I suppose it's nice to have a sample.

No, on an online store yes. But having that in a store you actually physically go to is nice so you can feel what you are buying before you get it.

When sold in an actual store it's incredibly useful!

I find it funny too, but it's useful in many ways.

I'm more concerned with the excessive packaging of many toy manufacturers.

I don't think it's wasteful at all, because I actually appreciate having those samples when I'm in a brick and mortar store.

Not really, silicone isn't particularly expensive and it's good to know exactly what it feels like, wish more toys did that.

In a store it's great to try before you buy.

Useful for lube compatibility testing. Bad Dragon sells little pieces of silicone for that purpose.

Yeah, I like using the little samples in this way, too. Especially for toys that don't really have a good spot for patch testing.

nah, I think that its fine for them to do this. it definitely helps the buyer to decide on whether they want to purchase it it or not. If they are in a store. I see where it would be a bit unnecessary for online purchasing though. But I know that they couldn't foresee who is buying offline vs what is going to the stores. if that makes sense? lol.
