Shopping For Bedroom Toys Without the Embarrassment

    Posted by Kimberly Fidi on 12/04/2007

Shopping for your bedroom toys can be a difficult task for some people.

Shopping for your bedroom toys can be a difficult task for some people. The discomfort of going into a brick and mortar store to shop for your sex toys is quite understandable. There are so many different products on the market, so the last thing you need is to feel rushed in making your purchase because of your embarrassment. As an owner of a well known web site that provides Adult Toys, SpicyGear.com, we can offer certain tips to make sure that your shopping experience is non intimidating, informative, and discreet so you will feel at ease with making future purchases.

Purchase your bedroom toys from an Online Retailer – Buying your bedroom toys from a web site will provide a more comfortable shopping atmosphere since you are doing it from the comfort of your own home. There are web sites such as ours that pride themselves on easy product navigation, so you can search under specific categories such as Vibrators, Dildos, Toys for him, Toys for Couples, etc. Going even further, most shopping sites will also have subcategories so you can certain for a specific type of vibrator such as Discreet Vibrators, Powerful Vibrators, Traditional Vibrators, etc.

Look for a Buying Guide Section and Customer Reviews Section– Most reputable adult toy web sites understand that making this type of purchase can be a difficult process. Our web site offers a Vibrator Buying Guide that provides detailed information on the many types of vibrators that are specific to certain areas of stimulation. The Buying Guide also contains product recommendations that will aid the customer in their search. The Customer Reviews Section is always a helpful shopping tool to help you learn what other customers like you are saying about the product. However, if you notice that all the products on the site seem to be getting top ratings, use your discretion. This could be a ploy for the site to just use this section as a selling tool. Our web site actually offers honest customer vibrators reviews. We actually have a separate section on our web site that displays our Highest Rated Products as well as Our Lowest Rating Products. You will even find our compliation of Best Sex Toys.

Make Sure the Web Site is Trustworthy – Check to see if the web site has certain certifications such as BizRate.com Customer Certified, which allows you to see customer feedback as well as the overall web site rating. Some web sites also have Hacker Safe and VeriSign logos, which ensure that the site uses these services to keep your information secure.

Keep Your Billing and Shipping Information Private – Make sure that the web site states that they will keep your billing and shipping discreet. For example, when our customers order from us, our corporate name, Go Live appears on the billing statement as well as on the shipping label. This is also important especially if there are children in the household. In addition, look to see if the web site also has a statement regarding sending out unsolicited mail. Many customers do not wish to receive catalogs or be placed on any mailing lists. If the company does send out newsletter emails or printed catalogs, you should be given the choice to receive this material or not.

Shop With a Site That Has a Customer Service Phone Number – Some web sites only offer a customer service email, as opposed to a phone number. Only shop at a web site that offers a working customer service phone number. This is important in case you have product questions, returns, or need information on your shipment.

Overall, make sure that ordering and shipping procedures are clearly stated on the web site. In addition, please make sure you thoroughly read the return policy, especially due to the nature of the products being purchased. Using the above shopping tips will to simplify and ease your sex toy shopping experience
