  … What are they?

  At this stage I need to ask a chatbot about what is expensive, but emberassing to buy.

    I would imagine that a Godzilla sized sexdoll, in Godzilla’s likeness would be pretty expensive.

    a specific style of a fem biology steel chastity belt comes to mind first

    it’s hard to find fem biology chastity belts in the first place, and if you want one that isn’t clunky? either pay an actual fortune for one from a western online store (probably a german one) or gamble your money and try to get one from a chinese retailer with 0 reviews and little media presence but significantly cheaper. another actually valid alternative is using that money to sign up for a blacksmithing course and just forge one yourself because fuck €400 is the cheapest price for 8 pieces of metal and some wires??? (a shady chinese retailer will [probably] get you one for €100, or they might take the money and disappear forever)

      Hmm. Get the major parts made by one of those places that does on-demand laser sintering 3D prints in metal, then wire them together yourself? I doubt the parts in isolation look anything like the end product, so the laser sintering firm would most likely have no idea what you wanted them for. No idea how much it would cost, though, and you’d have to do some 3D modeling.

        At that amount of work you’ve moved into the separate hobby of making your own kink equipment

        both this and learning how to smith sounds like a lot of work. i gambled my money and thankfully it paid off as i got what i wanted for a fraction of the price it’d cost me to buy from a safe website, lol
