Default Shipping 'Adult Toys' ?????

My husband & I have accumulated over the years a vast and comprehensive collection of 'adult toys' and gizmos. Our concern is, do we ship them out to Oz or not? If so, what do we label the goods as on the shipping inventory? This may cause embarrassment to others as our 'goods' will take up at least a couple of crates. Are we better off selling our collection on Ebay, the local Boot Fair or giving them away to a charity shop?

I have some very expensive items from 'Coco de Mer', various dressing up outfits and exquisite adult 'toys', I don't really want to part with them, also having to bear the cost of replacing them.

In Aus they are called "Marital Products" - not to be confused with children.

You could always wear loads of layers to the airport,make sure you fly out the same time as me,they'll never search you.Even if they did,the internal search would take so long to itemise,they'd probably give up.

Good point we have same problems with shipping back to the UK , try ship mail instead of air mail make sure you ship them to a good friend the customs will open them bet on it.

I'm taking a paraglider, windsurfer and some SCUBA gear. I can't see there being any trouble.

Is that what you're on about?

Seriously, there is a bit on the Customs form asking if you are bringing in material that is likely to cause offence to a reasonable adult. I guess that is just down to the individual customs officer.

But seeing as Australia is full of hard core porn and swanky bordellos I wouldn't worry about it. I'd declare it though.

We've had loads of trouble trying to ship Mrs B's marital aid over.Don't think there's any agent out there who can get our milkman a PR visa.
Come to think of it,we get our milk from Tescos!

BB-& we don't have a fire,so why do we have a coalman ?
