Re: Boots may sell sex toys
 
So does this mean the chain will now be known as (Kinky) Boots?

As far as I know you need a license to sell pornagraphic material (such as mags and video/dvd's) but not 'toys'

A shop in Biggleswade near us had this problem recently. They sell loads of 'toys' and apparenly don't need a license as they don't sell the vids.

Many ordinary highstreet shops have been selling sex toys since the 60's. They were called Spin Dryers.
:D

Better refrain from the obvious "Puss in Boots" play on words then ;)

Well............ Boots already sells....... PetalCleanseâââ‚à ‚¬Ã…¾Ã‚¢ for Cats...... helps control allergens that come from the saliva glands and urine of cats, rabbits and other small fury pets..........

Looks like that might help to sanitize most secretions :angel:

High Street chemist Boots has said it is considering selling sex toys at most of its nationwide stores.
1) Oi! Boots! Get off my territory...!!! :mad:

Quote:

2) Nope. You only need a licence if you're selling explicit magazines or R18 classified videos.

Quote:
'personal massagers' - that's the polite name for a vibrator isn't it?
3) Yep.

Quote:
The sell them in Selfridges........ or so i've been told
4) Selfridges in London did experiment with a franchise retailer selling sex toys and lingerie etc last year, I'm not sure if it's still going.

4a) "so I've been told"...? Hmm...!! ;)

5) Yep. They took it to court and won the case.

Of course if you want to buy your toys from an Affordable supplier...! :D
