Does where a toy is made impact your purchase?

the toys I've been interested in so far have mostly been American made- i would probably still want them though even if they weren't made here

I don't really pay attention to where my toys are made until I come across information in the manual or on the box that tells me where the toy was born. I try to stay away from anything made in China. They have ... more
I love that you said born.

I've honestly never paid attention to where my toys were made.

I don't care whatsoever. I go where the quality is.

I don't pay attention to country of origin. Even US or European firms have their products manufactured in Asia. But is a toy maker prominently stated made-in-the US, it would make me seriously consider their products.

Some of the toys that I have bought are American-made; for example, Tantus is one of my favorite toy brands and all of their toys are high-quality and handmade here.

Generally speaking, however, toys that aren't made here (especially ones made in China) tend to be marketed by larger companies that mass-produce their goods, and the quality suffers as a result. This obviously isn't just true for sex toys, either. However, there ARE exceptions to this and where a toy is made isn't a huge selling point for me. As long as it IS reasonably well-made, I'm happy.

Not really. The ones I go for are usually European or American-made.

I dont see why it would matter. Most of the things we buy is made in another country.

It's not going to change my mind if I am going to purchase it, but I am definitely interested in supporting the smaller USA companies.

In my case, any toy made in any place will be good.. I can't make a rules for materials and origin.

This isn't something that factors into my decision-making process. I buy toys I find of interest and fit my pocketbook.

I don't mind where something is manufactured. More what it's made out of than anything.

I don't choose my toys based on where they are made, that doesn't affect how they work for me personally.

it's important, but not the deciding factor. if i can buy a superior product that is produced outside the country, i'm going to get what works best for me.
