I use A 'Hitachi' Wand Plug-in vibrator + many dildos go to my site www.thepinkmonkeyparlor.com lOOk if you like something you see Msg me as long as you 'promise' to think of me when you try it I will send you your first 'TOY'
I've had a couple of perfectly good rabbits that cost $20 including shipping. Next time, I might get a pthalate-free one, but it goes to show you don't have to spend much for great toys that last forever.
]), some vinyl (like the attachments for the hitachi magic wand, which can be sterilized and don't have a toxic odor or anything), glass/pyrex and stainless steel. Hard plastic might be fine, too, but there aren't a lot of good toys made of it. Avoid jelly, rubber/latex and cyberskin-type stuff OR be prepared to slip a condom on toys made of those things.You don't sound stupid at all! It's a lot of info to take in, for sure!
If you look around, you'll see that there are different levels of toys and retailers. Expensive toys aren't necessarily good toys; they often just have a bigger markup or a premium price tag. There are cheap toys that are great and will last a long time, and expensive ones that suck and will crap out on you in less than a year. If you're buying something like a glass dildo, a $30 one may be just as good as a $150 one. Why pay more when you don't have to, or could get a variety of toys for the same amount of money?
The same goes for retailers. Places like Babeland, Libida and GV are "premium" retailers and they charge premium prices. A Hitachi Magic Wand with attachments that can be had for around $50 elsewhere might cost you well over $100 at one of the premium stores/sites, and it's not like they provide a satisfaction guarantee or anything else that justifies the cost difference. They're just making more off of the same items.
I think Adam & Eve is a great place for a toy newbie especially and/or more expensive toys because they do have a satisfaction guarantee and the prices there are fairly reasonable. They're not the lowest prices around, but they're not the highest, either. That $5 or $10 over the lowest price you can find might be worth it for the ability to return the toys with no hassle if you don't enjoy it or it breaks within the first couple of months.
In terms of materials, your best bet is going to be pure silicone (i.e. NOT a mixture of silicone and something else; be sure to ask the retailer if the toy is 100% silicone because things only have to contain 10% of something to be labeled as such [like 10% juice and 90% colored sugar water being called "fruit juice"
Sorry for what? You haven't done anything wrong as far as I can tell, and I hope I didn't give you the impression that I thought you had!
