Spanking machines. Does anyone own a SOM II?
Posted: 27 Nov 2013, 22:13
I used to have the original electric motor powered SOM but it was too noisy for the small residence where I live and I had little chance opportunity for privacy so last year I threw it away. Yep. Sorry about that.
I hadn't given it much thought until a couple of months after when I revisited the website I bought it from and there was the Spank-O-Matic mark 2 "Spanking Bench". New design, electric motor replaced by air compressor, self-bondage add-on accessory, and most interesting of all...
Fully automated PC control!
Now that got me drooling. Locked in, punishment session programmed, no escape.
Trouble is, while it is an affordable unit in the US of A at around $1,200 for the basic version with the timer release mechanism, to get it shipped to the UK could be painfully expensive, it's not just the shipping costs (I'm guessing somewhere around $400) it's the crippling cost of import duty. I've seen what appears to be the same machine sold on eBay UK for over £2000 ($3,250), I've emailed Paul at "Orgasm Alley" to find out if it's the same unit or not; I don't want to waste money on an inferior knock-off and I want to find out if it's cheaper to have a machine imported from the USA. Damn, $1,200! So cheap in America, but perhaps double or even triple the price here in rip-off Britain.
I've also looked at the cheaper Robospanker which has also been significantly improved and also has a self-bondage add-on plus an option for a male- masturbator sex toy - get whacked and whacked-off at the same time. But.. I dunno, the guy who makes the Robospanker seems to be little bit less than straight with the facts which puts me off. TBH the Spank-O-Matic Mk1 was in some ways disappointing and I'd be tempted to give the Robospanker a try but the SOM II looks to be well engineered.
