I wonder if you are allowed to sell sex toys on ebay? I know you cannot sell firearm magazines...

Such things are restricted to the "mature audiences" section. There are currently 6394 items listed in the "Adult Toys" category including such featured items as "Waterproof Soft 7 1/2in Ribbed Fun Water Toy Vibe Dildo," "Oh Baby... INFLATABLE ANAL EXPLORER VIBRATING BUTT PLUG," "New! SILICONE PENIS RING ANAL ECSTASY BALLS," "New STRAP ON HARNESS 7" DONG for them 3" DONG for you!," and for the Koolaid drinkers, the ever popular "Colt™ Shower Shot™."

ETA: Suddenly the sig line seems exceptionally apropos.

what do you think pre-bans will get up to in price?

I was just going to say something to that effect. What features define a pre-ban versus post ban sex toy? That's a a list I'd like to see. Maybe this is the conservatives way at getting back at all those fugly anti-gun bitches who couldn't get laid if it was part of a college fraternity initiation. They attack our guns we attack the one thing that will have sex with them: an inanimate object.

I heard about this on the radio. They are only "banned" like bongs are "banned": if you use the wrong terms to advertise them.

You can sell "personal massagers" and "novelty items", but you can't sell "vibrators" or "dildos", just like you can sell "water pipes" but not "bongs."

Tommy Chong ended up going to jail because he allowed his name to be used by some Internet company that sold bongs (by name).

Prices please?

The current bids are under $20 for all of them except the STRAP ON HARNESS, which will set you back at least $29.99, plus S&H.

BTW, since they had a "Colt" brand item among their featured selections, I thought I'd try a search for other firearm brands. Glock didn't turn up anything in the sex toys category, nor did SIG or Browning (a bit of a surprise there), Taurus, Ruger, or Bushmaster (another surprise). But there were 34 items for Colt fans, including not only the "Shower Shot™" mentioned above, but also the "Colt Anal Douche Adult Dildo Dong Sex Toy Butt Plug FREE Amazon $10 Gift Certificate," which is currently going for only $14.99. I suppose I ought to cross-post this in the Colt forum.

Yup, seems we had a discussion on this a few days back and the conservatives denied that any such laws like this ever happened...

Then it's likely that such conservatives never read the newspapers or listen to talk radio.

Which I find very unlikely.

Who was it precisely that denied that such laws exist?

Names, please.

I'd rather ban butt plugs than high capacity magazines.

In the ARFCOM tradition, keep BOTH!

If you have extras, or maybe picked up some new ones, you could sell your old preban ones on the EE to members in banned states.

I have no problem with buying used magazines from ARFcomers. Used butt plugs? Better clean off all the skid marks first.

As long as they still sell cucumbers, they will never keep the horny woman down! Same with watermelons and men.

Or figs (who has my quote in their sig now?).

Will this ban prohibit the manufacturing of sex toys?
Can you pay a $200 tax to upgrade your post-ban sex toys?

everybody save your pre-ban dildos and dolls, and sell them them during the band

I agree. I don't use any of the aforementioned products, but there's no reason why someone else shouldn't be able to if they wish.

Government should not be allowed to ban things that can't be proven to hurt other people. These hypocritical moral crusades only backfire.

The focus should be on REAL crime, not this petty crap.

Dildoes don't screw people, PEOPLE screw people!

Seriously though, on the level of "hey government, go fuck thee off away from me" there really is no difference from this type of idiocy than the antigunners wanting to take guns away. In both cases, it isn't the inanimate object they are trying to "regulate", it's the person.

Do you feel that is nessisary or pressing area in need of government regulation?

I just don't see the point. I mean has a sex toy ever attacked anyone? Are their sex toy ice cream trucks out on the streets with fuck swings, double ended dildos, and real-feel rubber vaginas swinging off the sides?

Drive by dildoings "could" happen.
