The recently announced delivery by FurbMe just arrived. All toys except 2 are back in stock now.
(Yes, postings in the category „Disturbing Dildo Deliveries“ are basically copy&pasted. There is just nothing original to write about such a thing but many people are waiting for toys of a specific manufacturer to come in, so it’s important we post these.)
We have added a new penetratable toy to our shop. Similar to the mare Hera and different from the previous dragon Thorn, the dragon Aria can be used for her vagina and her anus. At nearly 1Kg of silicone she is still surprisingly affordable.
Custom toys: For just a few days after this delivery arrived and before we place our next order right away, it will be possible to order custom variation again. Just contact us via email, stating all the details like colour and firmnes. Then we’ll provide you with a custom product that can be ordered exactly 1 time via the regular ordering process. The only difference is that it obviously takes longer to ship and we require it to be fully payed right away. Also for custom made products there is no 14 day return period.

Introducing the ejaculating Mustang XL. It’s so big in fact, that we can’t use our regular photo setup.
See these comparisons for just how XL it is:
And because we made a mistake and ordering some moew (XL) instead of ordering the (L) in a different colour, we also present: Mustang (XL) – Grey, ejaculating
4 of 130 (2 new toys added recently) Exotic Erotics models, are currently still not in stock.
Added sizes and photos
We added a number of missing size values and are working on adding additional photos for size comparisons.
Custom toys
We do offer custom toys to be included in the next order. Please contact us early and we’ll create a custom product for you to order as soon as the next shipment leaves the factory and we place our own restock order.

We are running an Amazon integration, allowing us to sell selected products on Amazon.de (and before Brexit Amazon.co.u). We do not sell on other EU markets because we can neither provide support nor descriptions in the local languages.
A new version of this integration now replaces the mechanism of how product categories, description and attributes are handles. Luckily this only requies effort for new products.
The problem is, the first step to sell new products on Amazon is to create a „Product Type“ and these require us to select from a fixed list of product types. However the non-public category of sex toys is simply not listed to choose from. So it is impossible for us to add products we have in the shop to our Amazon listing at this time.
They also changed the value we have to enter into the EAN/UPC field for products that don’t have an EAN/UPC/ISBN. Without telling anyone. So now we have to change the value already entered in hundreds of products.
…and here I though the 5 hour printer jam was the worst that would happen on this lovely Sunday.
The less glorious parts of running a dildo shop: Instead of enjoying a sunny Sunday, we just spend the better part of an evening fixing a paper jam in our (reasonably) big printer. Down to the point of going through the service manual to take it apart (with some very scary steps).
It may sound benign but having to prepare customs paperwork for Monday and printing invoices and postage for shipping as well as (legally mandatory) product packaging, this is critical.
At this point we know every single photo-interruptor and levered microswitch that has anything to do with paper detection. Turned out a tiny piece of paper was stuck in a hidden part, used only for duplex printing. Of cause when we found out, every other part of this hellish contraption was already inspected, cleaned and tested a dozen times over.
Print quality is crap for the time being but good enough for customs paperwork. In the past, this has solve itself by just having enough unimportant things to print until the last spec of paper dust and microscopic air bubble has left the system.
This was quite a lot of programming work today. This is one of the many tasks that don’t come to mind when you hear „operating a webshop“.
Last year
We can not bring all toys to Eurofurence. There’s just too many of them. So we have to choose. In storage, our toys are organised on boxes of up to 6 different models. Only models of the same manufacturer end up in a box. In preparation for Last year’s Dealers Den we wrote 2 new statistics:
How popular are the products in all boxes of a manufacturer.
So we can make boxes with only popular and only unpopular toys
What are the N best boxes in terms of the popularity of their toys
So we can pack the most popular ones
Export this list of boxes in a format our custom „price list“ printing program understand
So the printed catalogues in the Dealers Den queue only contain products we actually have at Eurofurence.
We already made a switch to ignore products that are currently out of stock, so they won’t skew the popularity of a box.
This year
What we still had to do manually is to make sure all products that are new (where not in the shop at the last Eurofurence) are in boxes we bring to the Dealers Den. Especially since they may be so new, that there was no chance of them becoming popular yet. So we added the ability to import this information into the statistics database, store it, display it as additional details next to products and boxes, took care of all the special cases, debugged everything and finally added a second switch to ignore or use this information when sorting the popularity of products and boxes.
The small delivery by Bad Wolf (English / German) has arrived. All but 5 toys and most lubes are in stock again.
Mistakes where made
We made a mistake and ordered a few too many toys for the next delivery (not thinking about this one already being in the pipeline). We also mistakenly ordered 2 colours of the same size for a new model instead of different sizes.
