Buyers Remorse

Any of you ever buy a toy, then have some type of remorse after making your purchase? Maybe you feel that you have too many toys already, shouldn't own that large of a toy, or what was I thinking, and/or made a purchase when you were horny and weren't in the right state of mind to make a purchasing decision? What have been your experiences?

I only by toys in a store. I usually do this when I am out of town. That way...I know exactly what I am by and the quality of what I buy.

A couple years ago we were on vacation. We were too early to check in and spotted an "adult" store. Sure, we have time... after an eye-opening tour of the store, we purchased a few items. One was a 2" butt plug. We gave each other enemas at the hotel then the new toys came out. To our disappointment, neither could take the 2" plug. Just couldn't stretch more than 1 1/2". Damn.

We couldn't (and wouldn't) try to return it after using it. Lesson learned, measure before buying..

Lol, I bought a 3" thick dildo and I can take it, but every time I open that case and look at it I think to myself... I probably shouldn't own this!

I bought a ‘medium’ dildo from Bad Dragon. Yah. No. Hurts and not in the good way. Part of it I think is that it’s silicone and ‘sticky’ because of that, part because it’s freaking huge. I guess I’m not a size queen.

There have been toys I purchased that were too hard, too soft, to thick, too stinky and cheaply made but terribly over priced. Chalk it all up to the learning curve. Last year I went a bit crazy shopping in the "if it were up your ass you'd know it" department and came away with about 20 new toys. Of those I'm really fond of at least 10, won't use maybe 3 more than an odd lark and the rest are kind of duplicates in the sensation department. One that will not see much use is a 3" silicone butt plug- now I know what too big means to me (most of the time).

Yes. Years back a girlfriend and I bought a double dildo out of a small magazine. My girlfriend got it from an in-home selling type deal where a bunch of us girls get together and another girl tries to see adult things. It's like a pyramid deal where nobody makes any money except the people way at the top. Anyway, we were both shy and decided to buy a double dildo. It did not give sizes in the description. It just said life like with veins for added fun and big enough to satisfy anyone or something like that. We were so shy we got our money together and bought a money order to pay for it with. We could have been ripped off. It cost like $49.00 or some high amount. But the company was honest and after a few weeks, we got it. The first problem was that the girth was too big. We got it in us but it was painful so that sucked. What is the point if it doesn't feel good, right? So we took a steak knife because it had the saw edges on it. We know now that the edge is called a serrated edge. We proceeded to slice it. That sucker was hard to slice. We even boiled it which made it a little easier to slice. When we finished that it was a little rough so we bought some sandpaper. That did not work so well. We had to slice it in smaller slices as smooth as we could get it. Then use some sandpaper. It was ugly when we finished but made us laugh. We were laughing the whole time we were doing all of this. It made it a lot easier to get in and felt good as long as one of us didn't get too wild because it was also too long and would bump our cervix. Then we found the Castle. We were still shy so we would go drinking and then go in. It was like a Super Walmart of sex toys. They had male, female, gay and straight people working in there. That is when we found out that double dildos came in sizes. So we went home and measured by putting the one we had in us and marking the depth. Then we just multiplied by two. After we got the measurements we made the two four drive back to the Castle. But that was sort of an expensive item for two broke girls. We could have done without

I have made this mistake twice . When I was much younger and less experienced . A large plastic hand that vibrates and a 10 inch hard plastic- fleshy feeling vibrator that's smelled funky , like melted plastic . I still have the hand but the stinky vibrator is gone .

I try not to he hasty in selecting toys, but since being a teenager, there have been some real dogs. I have probably thrown out between $1000 and $1500 worth of shitty toys. One most recently in the last couple of months was a $200 pulsating/thrusting in and out dildo vibrator that someone posted here that had a warning not to use it if you have a pacemaker, but that wasn't why I threw it out. I threw it out because it was a piece of crap with NO POWER to actually thrust in and out of my vagina or rectum and the shape of the dido wasn't great either. The damn thing looked good on the video but trust me it was crap. DO NOT BUY IT.

My first toy was a hard plastic shitty vibrator......like people usually buy for a first try.....lol......he fell and broke the plastic......but the good thing is that I pay just 10USD for it....so no worries......

In my younger years, I had a nice collection of jelly dildos and vibrators. I was always getting yeast infections and with what I now know about sex toy materials it was all due to the porosity of the material used in those toys together with some of the chemical "softeners" used in PVC products.

Cheap PVC sex toys are porous and no matter how hard you try to clean them bacteria will actually live and thrive inside the sex toy material. Also, PVC sex toys use a chemical called phthalates to soften them and it is that chemical off-gassing that gives you the chemical smell you get on cheap sex toys. This chemical is banned from being used in children's toys and anything that can go in their mouths but not banned from being used in sex toys - go figure that one out.

Nowadays I rarely get infections down there as I only use body safe sex toys made out of materials like silicone, metals, glass and ceramics.

I buy from eBay...and from China...cheaper than USA stuff....so if it has to be tossed you are not out much $$$.

Never have been burned....sizing has been only issue.

Quality pretty good over all.

Give it a shot...lots to choose from on eBay.

I'm in 100% agreement with Joanne! If you doubt it, use your "el cheapo" butt plug, then wash the crap out of it. (Yes, pun intended!) Let it dry thoroughly, then give it a close sniff. As we say in the good ole USA: It doesn't pass the smell test! Helpful hint: sharing cheap sex toys is a great way to pass along diseases! Actually, sharing almost any insertible sex toy works really well, so don't do it! The only exception I would even dream of making would be for a glass or metal, toy AFTER it was boiled for 15 minutes. While we're on the subject of sharing biomes: I keep hearing (seeing?) people say that it's safe to drink (ugh) urine or use urine enemas, because urine is sterile. In terms of bacteria, this is usually true as regards bacteria from healthy individuals. HOWEVER: there are several nasty viruses which can pass through the kidneys into urine. This can hold true for healthy carriers, who don't realize they harbor the disease.

As @charlie_oneal - https://en.zity.biz/index.php?mx=forum;ox=display;msg=991331 - mentioned, size is the only real issue. Its gotten to the point that I have a list of my plugs and their diameters so that when I'm shopping I'll have a better idea of fit. Can't trust the description of "large" or "expert" on toys as they are meaningless and relative.

My biggest complaint is that so many toys are of such poor quality... I've had vibrators die after one day of use and have gone through countless ass anchors because the motor twists the wires out. I repair them as much as possible and eventually have to replace the ones that I like.

I have bought items that have not lived up to expectations, that to me is disapointing and a waste of money, but not what i would term remorseful,

however a couple of years ago, i made a hasty decision and got rid of everything related to med fet, sexual toys and bondage, including a not cheap estim, and a very expensive surgical table, a month later and i was full of remorse, it was a mistake, i have bought some items again, but i deeply regret what i did

If I had a nickle for everytime I read a story similar to yours Cut. I'm sorry you did that. Don't do it again.

I've done this twice - because I was traveling for work and in a pinch - picking up "cheaper" dildo for anal. These cheap ones don't flex enough and often are curved so its difficult and sometimes painful to get them deep.

Lesson learned! Quality costs $$$ 😃

I agree with those who have warned against inexpensive toys. I recently found some PVC-like butt plugs and dildos in a box in the back of my closet. I'd forgotten I'd stored them there a few years ago. One of the dildos that was on the top of the pile appeared to have melted, covering several other toys with what looked like green slime. Other toys had a very sticky feel, to the point that the entire box went into the garbage.

I'll stick with my Pyrex and stainless steel toys from now on. They're more easily cleaned, and close to indestructible.

I have had buyers remorse in the past after buying what I thought would be the perfect toy only to be disappointed after I get home and find it to be too big, too small or otherwise falling short of my expectation. I find the remorse especially palpable when an expensive toy disappoints. I have purchased products from WeVibe and Hot Octopussy on previous occasions that were fairly pricey by my standards and worked phenomenally well when I got them home. In these two instances, the batteries did not live up to my expectations and I wound up throwing the toys away well before I thought I should have or would have expected to when I purchased them.

When I first began to dabble in toys, I bought a really cheap silicon probe for me and a cheap vibrator for the wife from a very well known company headquartered here in my home state. The silicon probe I still own, but the cheap vibrator was also cheaply made and broke during shipping. We ended up getting money back on that one and buying a much better model.

I guess I've been fortunate in that the ones I've regretted buying were mostly ones on sale, or marked down for clearance. So, my regrets were not over the price, rather just over the quality or performance, but at the price I wasn't really expecting much.

I've had the dildos, plugs or other things made of cheap material that becomes sticky after first use or two and lube isn't going to work well anymore, doesn't really seem clean after washing, etc.

I was disappointed in a couple purchases of items from Dr. Joel's company. Both were prostate vibrators, and both were just disappointing in their lack of power. One, like a probe, felt like it was mosquito powered. That company's products look good, perhaps well designed shape, but if electronics are involved, probably not a good buy.

I have 2 toys that immediately come to mind. the first one i bought from amazon. it was the "Sex Talk 12 inch Huge Dildo Vibrators with Extra Strong Suction Cup Realistic Dildo Real Dong Penis Imitation Dildos for Women". the length was nice and the girth was pleasant and it had a strong suction cup. it started off as a fun warm up toy attached to my sex machine or when I was being pegged. the vibration was standard, not incredible but decent. but the motor lasted exactly 1 day and a month from when I purchased it. 1 day past the time limit to exchange an item. I sent an email to the company asking for an exchange but never got a reply. I even posted in the reviews about this but never heard a thing about it. I still use it occasionally as just one of the odd toys I use as the size is fun, especially if I work another toy in there for a warm up stretch.

I also bought a dog penis with knot off of amazon, "MLSice Realistic Big Animal Dog Dildo with Suction Cup Canine Penis Sex Toys for Women Sex Products Anal Butt Plug Lesbian Flirt Erotic Monster Cock and Balls Dong - Black". I would not buy another unless I can find one with the knot at least 2-3 inches from the base. the toys is fun to play with but since the knot is so close to the bottom and it is on any surface you cannot get the knot to seal the deal. if I am using it as a plug or a hand toy and I am pushing it in on my side, back or doggy style the knot will pop in but because it is so close to the base it almost always pops out if I do not hold it in. the suction cup on it leaves a lot to be desired also. it will rarely stay locked onto anything.

I purchased what looked like a great inflatable anal plug that has ridges and grows to a great size if it's pumped up inside. It comes an inflator bulb, and expands from a compressed 5 inches to a whopping 15 inches and a pretty good size girth as well. So I received it in the mail and was eager to check it out. I pulled it out and got it ready. It is impressive looking and even moreso when it's inflated. However the big problem is that the entire thing is just a dildo shaped balloon. Even when it's fully inflated it is so flimsy there's no way to insert it. I have been trying to figure it out how to get it in and I certainly don't give up easily. Right now though until I figure it out (if that's possible) I would give this toy 1/4 stars and recommend to anyone to stay away from this toy.
