FAIL: Washing Returned Sex Toys
I keep hearing the voice of Jeff Foxworthy in my head as I think about this. “If your sex toy company washes returned dildos in the office sink, you might be a redneck…” But the thing is, I know some rednecks. Hell, I have rednecks in my family. They don’t vote, but they do buy sex toys…and not used ones, either. That would be tacky.
I’m talking about a paragraph from Always Aroused Girl’s blogpost titled Email From a Former EF Employee. Yeah, disgruntled former employee. Yeah, I saw it on the internet so it must be true. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like any other internet account, you get to decide whether you believe it, based on whether the account feels true to you and whether it matches other data you have. Meanwhile: Ew.
I worked for Eden Fantasys for approximately eight months.

One day I arrived at the office early. Most people were not in yet, but the product manager was there. She was at the sink washing things. I set my computer up, went back to say hi, and noticed that she was washing dildos. And drying them, and bringing them to the warehouse (directly attached to the office). She said something about returns that hadn’t even been opened. Some companies package their toys in simple plastic bags stapled at the top, which is easy to reproduce. At least one other person can attest to this practice. Enough said.

Seems I am going to have to email any other companies who might ‘accidentally’ try to send me ‘used’ or returned products. One thing to try and sell a used bicycle on Ebay, another to sell and be told you are buying a ‘new’ dildo and instead get a used one from a website. Even more that the paying customer has no idea if the ‘used’ product may have passable germs or bacteria that were not removed if the product was given a rinse under the sink. Then again, no customer should feel at risk of buying sex toys all the while getting a healthy dose of the clap from the first toy.
Every time I read a description on Blowfish or someplace where a stainless steel or glass toy is “dishwasher safe” I laugh, then I think “not in MY dishwasher”!
Just had to share this story:
Selling used sex toys? How about stealing them? That’s what happened here.
My friend was moving in with me for a few weeks before emigrating. We had moved her stuff in my car and there was one heavy box we decided not to moved up the 2 flights of stairs straight away, she didn’t really need it when staying with me. So it sat on the back seat. I went away for a week and while I was gone the car got broken into outside my flat. What did they steal? You guessed it. In the aforementioned box, among other things, was my friends Rampant Rabbit Thruster-USED! It got nicked along with all of her tampons, sanitary towels, condoms and lube.
Female car breaker? Perhaps. Someone with no sense of hygiene? Definitely!
Although they did neglect to steal the battery carriage for said item so if they did decide to use it it wouldn’t even vibrate. Poor filthy bastards!
