Blowfish, a sex-toy catalog, now sells wholesale. They require a certificate of resale status (or something like that). So you can't actually buy wholesale from them as an individual customer, but I choose to be amused regardless.

Besides, I'm okay for Liquid Silk for awhile :-P

i found blowfish has a very limited stock...what other kink catalogs are out there?

Hm. You *did* try their non-wholesale site as well, right? Their wholesale site is extremely limited.

Other things I hear recommended are Good Vibrations and Toys in Babeland, but I haven't ordered from either of them. The Good Vibrations retail store is good, though.

Stormy Leather is good if you want what they sell, but they're definitely more of a clothing/etc store than a sex-toy shop.

Other common one you hear recommended are Mister S and a related one (Madame S? Something like that) meant for women. Those are *definitely* kink/toy stores.

leather stores in the city i am *very* familiar with!

as was commented last night, i haven't been to good vibes yet (but i have now *seen* a vibrator!)

i have also heard of a catalog place from some friends...but they are out of town now, so i'll check with them when they come back next week!

good vibrations (http://www.goodvibes.com/)

i highly recomend them. their stores in san francisco, their online store, and their catalog. since we're sharing.

personally i like the lube "probe." no taste and nice and slippery. but i haven't tried many others. this is the one that my ex girlfriend exposed me to.

I haven't isolated what ingredient in it is the culprit, but I am alergic to Probe. (not that I expect you to care particularly in my case, but just FYI that that can be an issue).

I tend to use Astroglide (for vaginal because it is liquidy) and KY Jelly (for anal because it is thick). Though someone introduced me to "Slippery Stuff" recently and I find that that combines all the the good qualities of both of the above and I may replace both with it. It managed to stay put while still being relatively thin and VERY slippery. And leave minimal sticky residue. Yum.

I haven't tried Slippery Stuff. Sounds like I may need to. I like Liquid Silk because it lasts a long time without getting sticky -- much better than Astroglide or Wet in my experience.

I've done very little anal anything, so I can't really contrast KY and Liquid Silk for that. I expect Liquid Silk is a little thin, at least by comparison.

I enjoy JT's Stockroom's print catalogue for casual flip throughs on occassion. I have purchased from them, and been very pleased with my acquisitions.

Have fun!
