Explain this to me

Why the hell is there a store for "second time around" used adult toys?

There are some things that should be bought new. Who sells them and who the hell is buying.

Ah St. Elmo.

USED adult toys!!?!?!??!?!

*dead* and not in a good way. *bleaches brain*

Yes, "Second time around Adult Toy store" It's wrong on so many levels.

annearchy May 22 2004, 19:21:29 UTC

So, so, totally wrong. Not about the fact of them being adult toys. Nothing wrong with that. But SELLING used adult toys??? *spork* I like to brag about getting bargains at resale stores but... I will definitely pass on this ...

I just want to know who the hell is buying.

I was so tempted to go back and look around. "Dirty dildos 2 for $10."

Um. What a supremely bad idea. The idea of using someone else's sex toys is totally EYEEEEW, but worse is the fact that you could get who knows what nasties from them? The only possible reason I can see is that you are buying them for demonstrations - safer sex education, perhaps - which would not involve actual use, if you get me. But still... people are nuts.

The area I was in fits everyone's idea of "redneck, trailer trask Southern hicks". Actually it wouldn't surprise me if they've never thought that you could get a nasty from a sex toy. So gross.

I still feel dirty. And we just drove by.

I think the concept of used adult toys broke my brain.

Some people get off on the thought, I think - consider that in Japan there are vendingmachines for used highschool-girls' panties (vacuumpacked in packages of three, with a picture of the owning girl on it - marketed at the regular fetishistic man about town). As for cleaning those things, alcohol should kill most of the nasties, shouldn't it?

Sadly, I don't think this store was marketted to a niche market. I think they are just nasty people out there.

Still ick.

Ok, that's just making me ill even thinking about it.

::waves:: HI! Thought I'd visit you outside of the imaginary world. ;)

It's a special corner of the net isn't it? You may want to try it again.
