Experiences with XR and Germany

[madscientist]

Hi,

does anyone have any experiences with extremerestraints.com and their deliveries to Germany - timeframe, customs and such? I don't really want to turn up and open my package at the customs office... But there's lots of goods on there (at a reasonable price) that really would interest me 😊

Regards

P.S.: Sorry, I was gone for quite a while. Job's consuming me.

Hi, den Zoll interessiert das nicht wirklich. Die wollen nur ihren Zoll, sonst nichts.

Wenn du trotzdem nicht willst, dann schau mal hier : http://www.tasker.blacksteel.com/frames/verkauf.html

Harry importiert schon sehr lange solche Sachen... und ja ich kenne ihn persönlich.

P.S.: Sorry for the German answer... If you really want to know you can try google translate. A funny piece of software... 😊

Danke dir für die schnelle Antwort.

Deutsch kann ich schon auch, dachte nur im allgemeinen Teil bleib' ich lieber bei Englisch, und im deutschen Teil ist leider nicht viel los.

Wollen tu ich ja schon. Ich wollte nur mal nachfragen, ich kann gut drauf verzichten beim Zoll anzukommen und das Paket aufzumachen.

Wie genau läuft denn das ab? Krieg' ich das Paket + Rechnung vom Zoll nach Hause? Oder macht das der Verkäufer und schlägt das auf die Rechnung auf?

Was möchtest du denn dort kaufen?

mir fällt jetzt direkt nichts ein was man nicht auch in Deutschland bekäme.
Vielleicht ein paar € teurer aber dafür ohne Zoll.

Yep, found that on their site, too. I don't really know what else they would consider "instruments of torture" - but whips count in there. I also found that they regulate imports of handcuffs - or at least start asking questions I'd like to make my way around. Annoying to be regulated by that damn government, but I guess it could be worse :-D.

Anyway, I found a German shop selling some entry-level gear at a reasonable price: http://www.bdsm-shop-24.de/. I'm short of cash anyway (You know... all those world domination plans, inventions and other stuff require funding 😊) and being a beginner, I'm happy with anything (as long as it keeps me safe and immobilized).

Guess I'll go with their goods for now. Got my next home-alone in a week, I'll order what I want/need there and post my experiences here, if that's OK. Anyone else got experience with that place? The owner seems to be running two other online stores with BDSM items (See http://kb-eshop.de/ for links). Quick research didn't turn up any trouble.

VacBedBound: Ging mehr um die Preise als um die Waren - hatte aber in der Eile vergessen, den Zoll einzurechnen, dann ist es preislich relativ egal ob ich in Deutschland bestelle oder nicht. Der Bondageladen um die Ecke hat halt leider ziemlich unverschämte Preise.

P.S.: Maybe we could make an area/thread about online stores supplying things for "our" hobby - some kind of directory here on the site? Not only bdsm stores, also pharmacies (nma supplies), clothing, home improvement stores and so on, where they deliver, what kind of payments they accept and how members of this board rate them. Maybe there's even some affiliate deal in it to help fund the site? Anyway, just thinking out loud.
