This blog posting will be updated to reflect the latest information.
Preorder your toys (also the ones to look at)
Like every year, we can only bring a selection of all the 300+ toys in our inventory.
If you want to see a specific toy in person, please inform us. This way we can make sure to bring it
If you want to buy a specific toy and pick it up without shipping cost, please order in advance using the shipping method „pick up at convention“.
Otherwise we can not guarantee that we have packed it and that nobody else buys the last one before you get your chance.
Please use an email address that actually exists.
If you did not select „Germany“ then the price may be slightly off because 19% German VAT applies instead of the VAT-rate of your country.
If you want to pay on-site, please select to have it pre-payed by bank transaction and just don’t send any money. An invalid credit card or Paypal address would cancel the order.
After Dark Dealers Den
Like the last two years, you can find us in the After Dark – Dealers Den. This time it is sectioned on the left (seen from the entrance), opposite the Art Show.
Changes to our table
While still bringing 2 (instead of 3) shelfs for the toys, we will prominently display 15 selected toys by all our 18 manufacturers to give a better choice then just the printed catalogues of what we have in the shelfs. Like every year, we will have a rummage bing of discounted toys by FurryStyle and Sidewinder Creations on the table.
New toys and Previews
If you have missed it, YiffyToys is celebrating it’s 18th birthday this year.
New manufacturers
Since last EF, we did add two entirely new manufacturers
since last year.
New toys
One of the most exiting new toys surely is the 3rd generation of the FurryStyle Rover toy. Since this toy has a penis bone, it will be the one toy you can (and should) actually touch in our display. Sadly there was an accident and the master for the regular sized Rover broke a few weeks before EF. So we will only have a prototype of it.
We will be away Thurday to Sunday for Mephit Min Con. So don’t worry. We’re not away for a long time. The last items will be shipped on Thursday morning. After that, next Monday shipping of orders will resume as usual.
YiffyToys selling at MMC
On MMC we can be found selling on the other side of the walls of the 11th century castle. (For protection of minors) Just go through the wooden door and have arranged to be parked just outside.
We had some free samples of Wolf Cum Lube and Wolf Lube for Eurofurence. As some of it is left over, we are giving away a small bottle with every order in the YiffyToys shop until it runs out.
The dreaded task… counting all the HUGE boxes of discounted toys we received for Eurofurence. …to see what’s left and what was sold. Cross-referencing that with the sales we made for consistency. Making lists for the manufacturers we received these toys and finally preparing to ship all of them back.
It was a lot of effort and we had to count serveral times but we made it. Also we placed our order to restock Bad Wolf toys and small bottles of Cum Lube right away.
For our restocking-order with Exotic Erotics we’re still waiting for one reply from the them.
…and with that, Eurofurence has finally ended for us. Now we all have to get back to our boring, daily tasks again.
The most dreaded task every year. Counting the inventory when we return from Eurofurence. Because it means pulling all the boxes we just shelved out again to be counted.
This doesn’t always mean having less of a toy then we thought but often enough one more then what the computer says. Things to get misplaced, especially when travelling with a metric ton on dildos to literally the other side of the country.
The 3 biggest manufacturers are done, so we can place our orders to restock. All the other ones will come during the week. One at a time.
We returned from Eurofurence last night and just returned the trailer a few hours ago.
Obviously the work isn’t done yet. First order of business: GET SOME SLEEP.
Some tasks are already done: All boxes have been returned to their proper shelves. We checked all open online-orders and will package them today. Amazon has been reactivated. The blocks in the YiffyToys online shop informing customers that we are away on Eurofurence have been deactivated again. The majority of waiting invoices and bank transactions has been handled. (oh joy, more paperwork) Started a spredsheet to see how much we paid and earned during EF27.
We still need to: Do a final count of the cash. Perform a full inventory count. Add the toys received from Neotori during EF to our inventory. Place orders with all manufacturers to restock ASAP. Handle some returned parcels waiting. Handle some paperwork that was waiting in the mail Tally up all the earnings and cost. Refuel and clean the truck.
After DPD delayed it quite a while, the delivery by Bad Wolf (English / German) has arrived at the last possible day. We are now in a hurry to sort all of them, add prices and finally optimize the hell our of the storage boxes we will have at our table to leave as few toy models behind as possible. All 54 toys are in stock now. We also received 56 toys for the daily Bargain Bins at Eurofurence. Note that there is a change this year: We will have 3 separate Bargain Bins. One for each day.
Two of the wearable horses have been deliverd in the wrong colour. We have updated the name and description in the shop and on the product labels to reflect this.
(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.)
Due to having so many toys for the Bargain Bin at our Dealers Den table at Eurofurence , we will do a daily changing Bargain Bin. Every day there will be a different Bargain Bin with different, discounted toys on the table.
You will have to come back daily to see all of them. You will not be able to buy discounted product from the previous day(s).
Given the amount of toys we have this year for the Bargain Bin on our Eurofurence Dealers Den table, we will initially stock it with a selection of the best stuff but not all of it. Instead it will be restocked daily.
So come back on day II and day III to see all of it. Especially if you are a Eurofurence Sponder with early access to the Dealers Den on all days.
Note however that we will be closing an hour early on the last day.

After Dark Dealers Den
Like last year, you can find us in the After Dark – Dealers Den, which will be a sectioned off area in the top, left corner of the Dealers Den.
Of cause there will be a bargain bin again. In addition to flops (toys with minor defects) and one-offs (toys made in a wrong colour, firmness or duplicates) by FurryStyle, we will also feature a lot of one-offs by Sidewinder Creations and Bad Wolf this year.
Due to having so many toys for the Bargain Bin, we will do a daily changing Bargain Bin. Every day there will be a different Bargain Bin with different, discounted toys on the table.
Status
TL:DR – there is a LOT of work going into such a tiny Dealers Den table on the other side of the country.
There are a lot of tasks to juggle but luckily this isn’t the first time. So we have divided them up into things that need doing a month before, to weeks before and one week before the convention. As always reality has a different idea and things to get delayed. Especially things being shipped too late to actually arrive on the day we communicated very early.
