London Video XXX Outlets?

Post by Steve L »

Hi all,

This site is truly unique, big slap on the back for all the time and effort ;)

I;ll be visiting London soon, and would like to pick up some good british h/c vids if possible. Could anyone let me know of any places worth checking out?

I was going to visit soho anyway, but really I'm looking to narrow down the search,

Know of any actual named places that definitely sell british stuff?

Thanks,

You can't really narrow it down that much but a 30 minute trip round soho and you will find handfulls of outlets. Ive not been for a while but there are some places selling originals at high prices but a several selling tapes for ?10 each.

They were copies but the bloke seemed to get round the "law" issue by only having one copy of every title in the shop each day. So if a tape was sold you had to go back the next day for a new copy. LOL.

Just wander about for 30 minutes and you'll find what your after for sure.

steve: be warned, a lot of the unlicensed sex shops in soho are rip-off artists - what they sell you may be hardcore, but it won't be what is on the cover. if anyone reading this knows a reliable one, PLEASE post the name and address here!

the censorship rules for videos sold in licensed sex shops have been relaxed recently, and you can get genuine hardcore in the R18 category. videos certificated under the new rules are beginning to come into the licensed sex shops, but the choice is still limited.

NEVER NEVER NEVER let someone in the street in Soho sell you something. like all conmen, they sound friendly and plausible to begin with, but don't even start talking to them.

Thanks for the warnings,

I'm going a week saturday, and a couple of guys have given me shops to check out. I wouldn't buy off someone in the street, hopefully I'll find somewhere decent.

As far as prices go, how much should I expect to pay?

I bought Rocco-Animal Trainer on the web, which cost me ?35 incl p&p. What should I expect to pay in these shops? Unfortunately, I'm new to going into sex shops ( although I'm not young ) and might be 'taken for a ride'.

Without a forum like this I would probably end up buying duff videos,

Cheers guys,

Steve

I've found Maxims on Frith Street off Shaftesbury Avenue to be very worthwhile. ?20 a video, but if you return the film you get ?10 off your next purchase, all purchases have been of the illegal type i.e. full hardcore. The only problem I've found is that I have too many films and our titles are somewhat duplicated. The last time I visiteed was Sept '99.

I'm not sure what kind of thing you are looking for.

Soho is pretty much pot luck.

The licensed shops rarely offer view before buy and what is on the tape usually bears little relationship to what is on the box - stills, running time if any etc. About he only exceptions to this are the very new 18R releases.

For the other places, the problem is quality control. They tend to be operated by the day. So if you have a problem with a tape there is not much point going back to complain a day or two later. Chances are the guy you see will be totally different from who you bought from.

I know reliable places which have good copies of most of the Ben Dovers, Anabolic World Tours with British girls etc but publicising the shops here is asking for trouble. Please supply your email if you want details sent.
