Fleshlight Shopping Guide - How to order Fleshlights at Fleshlight.com

If you want to purchase a Fleshlight, the best way is to buy it directly from the official online store of the Fleshlight manufacturer ILF (Fleshlight.com). This is because the online store is the only place where all Fleshlight models are available for purchase, where all newly released products are immediately purchasable and where all products are always in stock because, of course, this is where they are manufactured (the Fleshlight factory in Texas, USA). In addition, the official Fleshlight online store from time to time offers special discounts and Fleshbucks, with which you can save between 10 to 25 percent on purchase.

In the summer of 2010, the Fleshlight manufacturer, for its European customers, opened a Fleshlight factory in Spain (in Sevilla). All Fleshlights for the European market are now being produced there and they are now being distributed by the affiliated European Fleshlight store (Fleshlight-International.eu). This move is a big advantage for Europeans because it significantly speeds up the delivery time, greatly reduces the shipping costs and you are able to pay in Euro instead of US Dollars. So don't be surprised if you, from a European country, try to visit the Fleshlight.com (the US store) website and automatically get redirected to Fleshlight-International.eu (the EU store).

For my reviews, I have naturally ordered my Fleshlights direct from the manufacturer and have summarized my experiences in the following shopping guide.

Instructions : Fleshlight shopping at the Fleshlight Online Shop

After you have found a Fleshlight product you would like to purchase at Fleshlight.com, place it into your shopping cart by clicking the "Add to shopping cart" button. You will then be forwarded to the page containing your shopping cart where you will be able to see your Fleshlight listed.

One small savings tip: It is possible to buy the Fleshlight Girls inserts (or sleeves) without a case if you already own a Fleshlight case and therefore don't need another one. This will save you $20, which is the extra cost for a case when it is included in a Fleshlight purchase. The sleeve-only products are called Fleshlight Girls Orgy and can be found by clicking the link "Buy this as only a sleeve" which is located below the "Add to shopping cart" button.

You can add and remove the products in the shopping cart at any time. If you want to continue shopping, click either a desired menu at the top of the window or the "Continue Shopping" button in the lower left-hand corner. You are then sent back to the store and you can add additional products to your order. To conclude your purchase, click the "Proceed to Checkout" button and you will be forwarded to the next page.

1.) Adress & Shipping
Here, you enter your billing and shipping address, your phone number and your email into the corresponding fields in the form and then you have to check the "By clicking here, I verify that I am at least 18 years old." check box. After that, the UPS parcel service shipping costs are calculated for the respective shipping address.

If your order comes to more than $100, shipping within the continental United States by "UPS Ground" is completely free of charge. If your purchase amount totals just under $100, it certainly makes economical sense to add something small to your order (some lube, renewing powder or fleshwash) in order to save the shipping costs.

2.) Payment Method
Next, you choose the payment method. You can pay by credit card, check or money order. If you are from Europe, you have the additional option to pay by ClickandBuy. The fastest way is to pay by credit card or ClickandBuy because the money instantly arrives and the order can be shipped immediately. Conversely, paying by check or money order is comparatively complicated and makes the wait for delivery much longer and so I have never tried it.

3.) Coupon Code Field
Below the payment method fields is the coupon code/gift card field. Into this field you can enter a valid coupon code to reduce the total amount of your order in the next window. For information about how this works and which coupon codes are currently available, see this page: Fleshlight Coupon Codes

4.) Signing Up for an Account
If you enter here a (self-chosen) password, a customer account will be created which you will be able to access after your order is completed. There, you can keep track of the status of your order and you needn't enter your personal data again when placing another order later. (By the way, the credit card information is never saved on your account for security reasons.) Furthermore, as a Fleshlight customer with a customer account, you will earn so-called "FleshBucks", with which you can save up to 25% of the order amount upon the next purchase when ordering through the same customer account.

Creating an account is optional, meaning that you also can order as a "guest" simply by leaving both password fields empty. I however would not recommend doing so because it brings you no advantages and you will not be able to earn FleshBucks.

5.) Reviewing your Order
Once you have entered everything necessary, click the "Review Order" button. A new window then pops up, as is depicted in the illustration below.

In this window, you can again check all the details of your order and, if necessary, change or update the information by clicking the "Update Order" button. If anything is in order, click the "Process and Checkout" button, which completes the ordering process.

After Purchase - Email Notifications, Shipping Time, Packaging

Once the ordering process is completed, you will receive an email from Fleshlight with the subject "Welcome to our site"", which confirms that a personal customer account has been opened for you (provided you created an account during the ordering process). The email contains your name and your entered email address for purposes of your record-keeping and checking. With that email address and your self-chosen password, you will then be able to sign into your customer account at Fleshlight.com.

You will also get a second email with the order confirmation (subject: "Order Complete") in which your complete order is listed again. In addition, you will be informed about how many FleshBucks you have earned by submitting the order (as long as you created a customer account).

From my experience, it usually takes (on working days) about 6 - 12 hours for payment verification, for the packaging of the ordered products and for UPS to pick up the parcel. Obviously nobody works at Fleshlight and UPS offices on weekends and so if you order on Fridays (late evening), Saturdays or Sundays, your order will be processed on the following Monday.

As soon as UPS has scanned your package upon pick-up, you will receive an email from them containing the tracking number of your package as well as a link to the UPS website where you can track the dispatch route of your package.

The actual shipping time, from the time the package is picked up from the Fleshlight factory, is about 4 - 5 working days in the continental US (the US store) and about 3 - 6 working days within continental Europe (the EU store). The exact date of scheduled delivery is always contained in the UPS email.

In a few days, a UPS delivery man will ring your doorbell and hand you an inconspicuous plain brown cardboard box from "ILF Inc., 4401 Freidrich Ln., Bldg. 4, Ste. 400, Austin, TX 78744 US" (the US store) or, if you ordered from the EU store, "FLI, Torre de Los Herberos 23, 41703 Sevilla / Dos Hermanas, Spain". Your Fleshlight package, along with the UPS sticker, will look like the package in the picture above. That's it. Now, just unpack your Fleshlight and enjoy!
