We seem to have an issue if the country „France, Metropolitan“ (country code FX/FXX) instead of „France“ (FR/FRA) is selected, no shipping methods will be offered.
We’re working on it.
Furrystyle Logo als Teil der Toys
Alle new produzierten Furrystyle Dildos warden das Furrystyle Logo in hirer Basis als Stempel führen.
Dies ist der erste, kleine Schritt hin zu neuen Gussformen und damit neuen Modellen.

Standard-Antworten
Für immer wiederkehrende Fragen haben wir jetzt ein System eingeführt um entsprechende Antworten direkt in Emails zu kopieren.
Das soll nicht zu einer automatischen Textblock-Antwort verkommen, sondern uns erlauben auf wenige, immer wieder auftauchende Anfragen eine weitaus erschöpfendere Antwort zu geben als es uns möglich wäre, wenn diese jedes Mal neu getippt werden muss.
Das ansteigende Email-Volumen macht dies einfach irgendwann notwendig.
Mehrere Bilder
Wie haben jetzt experimentell mehrere Bilder pro Produkt eingebaut.
Sehen kann man das z.B. hier:
http://yiffytoys.de/cat-alog/product_info.php/products_id/457.
Als nächstes werden jetzt bessere und mehr Produktphotos angefertigt.
Das entsprechende Mini-Studio ist bereits aufgebaut und getestet.
Bessere Produktphotos geplant
Einige der Produktphotos sehen nicht so wirklich prickelnd aus.
Da wir für die Furrystyle Dildos jetzt eh selber Photos machen müssen, rüsten wir gerade ein wenig auf. In einer Ecke des Lagers wird jetzt permanent ein kleines Photo-Studio für Produktphotos eingerichtet.
Ebenso untersuchen wir gerade was nötig ist um die Shop-Software für mehrere Photos pro Produkt aufzurüsten.
Bei den Beschreibungen wird sich ebenso einiges tun.
New Furrystyle website online
After a lot of work the new website
www.furrystyle.com
is now online.
It no longer features a shop itself but instead lists dealers that have the toys in stock.
We added a forum for feedback and suggestions.
Especially suggestions about new or improved designs.
I lengthy forum posting explains the future of that site.
We are making great progress in preparing the equipment needed for reliable, production quality casting of dildos.
The molds and masters as well as a large, last shipment of produced dildos are expected to arrive in the next weeks.
Then we’ll have to inspect them, create new mother molds and start the long process of casting test runs.
The current and awaited stock of dildos should last more long enough to bridge that time.
YiffyToys(tm) takes over for Furrystyle
In the early days there was only Zetacreations (who’s toys we now sell).
As shipping was expensive and customs sometimes difficult, people regularly organised groups-orders.
One private individual who was lucky enough to own a credit card would take the risk and do the order for the whole group.
Years later a new company showed up, called Furrystyle and with their appearance we decided that a European distributor was needed.
With stock of their own, cheap, local shipping and acceptance of the local payment methods.
This was how YiffyToys(tm) was born.
Now, many years later the former owners of Furrystyle decided to concentrate on the non-furry population and sell everything that makes up Furrystyle.
We stepped in and christmas came early this year.
In a few days the website, domain name, molds, and existing inventory will belong to YiffyToys.
What will happen now?
We do have enough stock of their toys and a large, last order is still produced in the US to ensure that we can continue to sell and ship their toys during the transition.
We are conducting tests, talks and preparations to ensure that these toys will be produced again in the same quality you have come to expect.
This will take time.
This weekend the domains and web-site will be transfered to us.
For reasons of privacy we will (of cause) not get the customer database but a newsletter will inform the existing customers about the change.
A large batch of toys is still being produced, so that our inventory is sufficient to last for the duration of this transition.
We stopped selling Furrystyle toys from our US shop and are shipping them from our own stock in Europe instead. (We do ship to the US+Canada from here and we do show prices in USD if desired.)
Shipping of the molds is already being prepared.
We have already set up the first casting and mold-making equipment.
We have also already conducted successful test-casts in production quality and will continue these tests. After we are content that we can repeatedly create the desired quality, colors and softness we will scale up the equipment to production scale.

Added Google+, Twitter and Facebook
After doing this for the blog,
we just added „like“-links for Google+, Twitter and Facebook to the actual shop.
But, for your privacy nothing is transmitted to these services unless you actually click on their links.
Now you may easily share products you find interesting with your peers.
Google+ pages
Added a Google+ -page +YiffyToys as an experiment.
We’ll post the same things we post here on the blog on the Google+ -page but it’s easier for some to follow us and there may be smaller, twitter-like postings about less important things in there too.
+1 und Twitter
Gerade „+1“ und Twitter -Buttons für Blog-Postings hinzugefügt.
…kann ja nicht schaden.
