TL;DR My country's customs officers seem to have misappropriated 7 buttplugs, 8 Venus ball sets, 3 non-USB penis devices and 7 sets of BDSM straps.
We had a large shipment of illegal sex toys seized in the Czech Republic, and the customs office held an auction with publicly disclosed contents of the package. There were several suspicious amounts. I have a copy of the list:
Not auctioned individually, only as a complete set. 1 CZK ≈ 0.04 USD. Yes, we have words for sex toy but they specifically chose more formal wording.
The goods have been legalized for resale in the EU even though some lack CE certification.
Auction notice including photos (Czech, PDF, 9,74 MiB) / Deep-L's English translation of the document (view in browser) - gets interesting on page 5, or just click the hyperlinked items for extracted images (only 6 seems to have been published)
Above is translation of a Reddit comment I had made here but since overwritten with a power-delete tool.
"erotic aid for penis without usb"
This implies the existence of...
Well how do YOU charge penises? 🤷
With a proprietary connector, unfortunately.
Your MOM'S a proprietary connector!
She still works for Bumble, right? 😉
With my mouth ajar?
Sure, that works.
I am handicapped, my penis does not have a USB port. I am thankful that there are erotic aids made for people like me.
Yeah you can
Or I can reply to your comment and have you receive a notification. Yeah, it's done, I even extracted the images from the document (native res, no scaling).
Haha thanks!
But unfortunately, tone doesn't carry well through text, and may be especially poorly conveyed to someone who isn't a native speaker (which I'm assuming, from your username). My previous comment was meant to be read with an insinuating tone, playing on your use of the term "come".
Let's return together
I am kinda curious what about these were illegal. Like, are they particularly shoddy home-made stuff? Just some boring lack of import permits? Does Czechia have strict laws around sex toys?
Nah, likely just incorrectly declared and the importer failed to respond to a tax evasion fine. The Czech Republic is pretty lax when it comes to regulating such things (heck, even this was allowed). They could be legalized without a CE certificate, just some paper work.
Based on a few docu-series I've seen on the Internet that include casting interviews, adult parties, and erotic behaviors in public, I'm pretty certain that the Czech Republic is lax on sexual matters.
60min are over.
We need that information!
For research.
Sorry, there have been tech problems. It's done, I'll just extract and upload the rest of the images from the PDF.
(Disclaimer: My comment earlier was not to be taken seriously)
Thank you for the update :)
Nothing suspicious here lol
