I am frequently looking at whips for sale on Ebay, and one particular vendor has come to my attention. The company goes by the name Ardour, and I will warn you, many of their products are "adult novelties."
However, they are listing a number of different whips available for sale, offering different color leathers and lengths, and the descriptions seem pretty decent. Here is a link to one of their auctions: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Kangaroo-Hide- ... Ciid%253A1" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
I'm just curious about whether anyone here at COW has purchased one of their whips, and if so, whether they were impressed with the quality given the price.
Thanks.
Whips at prices too good to be true?

Make sure you select a size in the dropdown. The price goes up ~ $50 every 2 feet.
While still not a bad price, I'd be cautious.
And be careful about going to the suppliers main website...

Yeah, they make whips for other kinds of adventures.

Yeah, I checked out the seller's page. Talk about guilty pleasures . . .

I looked on the whip from the link and here are my thoughts. The transition zone looks like wet noodle and further down the thong looks stiff - that is suspicious. The ringknot looks like it is on the thong, not on the handle. Strands are nicely cut though.
But I would look for a whip elsewhere.
