Question - (7 July 2009) 5 Answers - (Newest, 7 July 2009)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, *K2009 writes:

I'm 17, and I really want to buy some sex toys. I'm a virgin, and I'm not in a relationship, but that's because I'm kinda shy and nervous.

But I still love masturbating; I've been doing it for years.

The only problem is, I'm getting bored of my fingers. I've used make-shift toys, things I've found around my room etc, but they not designed for that use.

I want a real sex toy, but don't want to go to a sex shop only to have them ID me, because I'll still be left toyless.

I could get a friend to go buy one for me, but that eliminates the chance of me browsing for what I want, and as much as my friend and I are close, I'd rather she didn't have to do that for me.

So what I'm really asking is, do sex shop websites ID you? If I was to buy a toy online, would they have any way of finding out I'm not 18, and therefore not send me my purchase?

I would have it delivered to my friends home (she lives alone) but I need to know if I could actually buy one first...

Okay, I found a site that only uses PayPal and PayPal are happy to accept Visa Electrons, so I should be able to buy a toy right?

Paypal aren't going to tell are they?

babymama99 agony auntAs long as you have a credit card you can buy what you want. I guess they assume that if you have a credit card your legal.

They usually send the items in plain unremarkable wrapping and will bill the credit card with an unassuming name. If they didn't they would probably loose a lot of their customers. nobody wants to be put on blast for the whole postal service to see. Check the website most will say how they ship on there.

As long as you know someone that is over 18 and has a credit card you'll be fine. You'll have to purchase it under their name though I'm pretty sure (though not certain) that you have to be 18 to have a credit card, so beyond that I don't think they will check. It will be on that persons credit card bill though, so make sure they know and don't mind.

Another option might be to browse for one online, read some user reviews (find a good impartial site for reviews) once you have one selected that you'd like to buy, you could just phone your local sex shops to see if they stock it. If they do then you could ask your friend to go in and purchase it for you.
