Title: SOMA VED not shipping to the EU anymore - alternatives?
Post by: postrocker on April 10, 2021, 09:08:58 AM
I am trying to buy a good and reliable VED for: 1. helping with curvature to the left and 2. some degree of venous leak

I was talking to the British and the American distributors of SOMA VEDs and both mentioned that shipping to the EU can make the product stuck in aduana and taxes may apply. This means I can end up paying double the price according to Portuguese regulations

So...
I am looking for alternatives. Other ways to buy a SOMA VED (i am not willing to use parcl) or other reliable VEDs brands/models that you could suggest.

Thank you!

It depends on what you are looking for.  If you are looking for a 3 cylinder model, you need the Soma-Correct or build your own.  There are instructions at the top of the VED Board.

If you want a single-cylinder model, there are several to choose from.  If it makes a vacuum, it will work.  The only difference will be how long it might last.  A vacuum is a vacuum.  Your penis cannot tell what made the vacuum.

I used the Vacurect. https://www.mainspringmedical.com/pages/lp-vb1?utm_content=vacurect&msclkid=82cd18d12ed315c6387c78a09ca0b4d0&utm_source=bing&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=Brand%20(EX)&utm_term=vacurect

Pros:  It is very compact and more discrete if used for sex. - One hand operation - durable - the retention washers are much better than bands if used for sex

Cons: The base is snug if you have more than a 5 1/4 - 5 3/8 girth at the base.

Thanks, Hawk.

Regarding your first comment, the best would be to have a VED that helps with curvature and girth/ED. That's why I thought about Soma. So I don't plan to be using a VED ring for sex yet.

But Augusta and IMEDicare already confirmed me that taxes may apply if they send it to the EU.

Didn't know about Vacurect, I will check if they ship to the EU.

I looked into Bathmate, but I don't have a bath, just a shower. Any other suggestions are welcome
