Well, that was kinda different...

I'm in the market for some bondage furniture. I've done some research of what's available online, and figured I'd also see if The Leatherman, a local shop that I've patronized for the last 3 years, either stocked anything or was affiliated with someone who makes such things. jadegirl and I have always had good experiences there -- though generally when we were shopping separately for one another.

Today we went in together, and it was somewhat different. One of the staff we talked to was nice enough, but the other was brusque, sullen, and off-putting. Like night and day. I came away with the impression that, unlike when I'm there alone, they couldn't care less whether they made a multi-hundred dollar sale or not.

I'll be writing to the store's manager about the matter. I don't think I'll be going back to that store. Perhaps the folks at The Noose will be able to help me.

Ever considered a used dentist's chair?

I've seen clubs that have 'em. It's not what I need at the moment, though. Also not very convenient to put away.

Do you have a rough idea of what you are looking for? Something for tying someone down or something with suspension capabilities? Do you want it multi-functional so it can also be a useful piece of furniture or strictly for naughtiness?

I'm not sure if I'm offering ideas or just being nosey. :)

Something along the lines of a whipping post. Collapsible would be a big puls, able to hold my weight (i.e. I could do pull-ups on it) is a must, capable of various positions a plus, but not a must 0 if it's wood, I can just drill eye-bolts where I please.
