the neophyte Flirt4Free attendees felt like family. Flirt4Free has been plying their offerings
at AVN’s AEE show for five years but this was their first kink-related show.
As many in the adult industry know, Flirt4Free not only provides a “general” webcam
but also hosts Flirt4Free Fetish, which is a kinky live-cams community connecting niche
fetish and BDSM models with the users who love them. Karly added, “We are the only live-
cams company with an established fetish community including a fetish education section,
over 50 specific fetish categories, and fetish-specific model contests. We are proudly based
out of Los Angeles.”
As for the future, Karly said, “We couldn’t be happier with our success at DomCon.
Looking forward to next year!”
Karen, from the world-famous Sybian and Venus for Men, also attended DomCon for
the first time. Karen exclaimed, “DomCon was fantastic for us! We had a steady stream of
interested clients and buyers.”
Sybian and Venus for Men, based in central Illinois, specializes in high-end pleasure
machines for men and women. At DomCon, they showcased some new, 100 percent
silicone parts for the Sybian as well as a fluid-proof cover in collaboration with Sheets of
San Francisco. The Venus for Men display allowed participants to feel the inside of the
lubed Receivers and see how custom sizing makes for an enhanced experience.
New Mexico-based PEPTalk, a phone sex service for the BDSM community, had a booth
and sponsored the Pro-Domme Social at DomCon.

PEP CEO Sera Miles enthusiastically shared, “We love connecting with
colleagues at DomCon! We hire phone Ladies from all over—we serve the
whole world! PEP offers intimate conversation, specializing in kink, fetish,
and BDSM. Our Ladies are authentic lifestyle women—the real deal. At
PEP, we believe everyone has an inherent right to a shame-free life.”
Kink Factory trekked from New Mexico for the second time to vend at
DomCon. Their custom spanking paddles, high-quality insertables, tail
butt plugs and unique and heavy-hitting impact toys all fit right in to the
niche market that DomCon supports.
Boston-based Leather By Danny displayed his many hand-crafted tools
of the trade and his clever Split Thumper was a big seller at DomCon.
Created by Danny himself, the Split Thumper is a magnetically connected
slapper made in a variety of leathers. Danny’s Grip Cuffs, his most popular
invention, are comfortable restraints attached to a foam grip allowing the
captive to regain circulation in their hands when held in bondage. For
information, visit LeatherByDanny.com.
Sharing the booth with Leather By Danny was toy sanitizer UVee.
A UVee representative stated how UVee even neutralizes blood-borne
pathogens, a point that is not lost on the BDSM community. “For those
kinksters who enjoy this type of play, UVee will safely sanitize any bodily
fluid on just about every surface, including blood. Our lab happens to be
Harvard Medical School, because we wanted only the best researchers
for our product.” Sales of UVee were brisk among those in attendance at
DomCon. Visit UVeeclean.com.
The Frugal Domme from Santa Rosa, California, presented her variety of
canes, floggers, paddles and straps at DomCon. With her specialty vegan
toys, sales were steady. She opined, “Apparently, there are very few vendors
who have anything vegan, so they were great sellers.”
Whipping Stripes’ Dhaene Dailey vended at DomCon for the past few
years. “I love everything about DomCon. We always have such a great time
there and it’s very profitable for us.” Specializing in floggers and single tail
whips, the Whipping Stripes booth was busy during the entire show. “We
were also at the AEE show and will be attending next year, too!”
NYC-based Baroness was in the room, vending for the first time at
DomCon. “Elegant, provocative latex fashions are my specialty for both
men and women and available from my website Baroness.com,” shared
the Baroness herself. “I also provide custom designs, off the rack, queen
sizes and bizarre rubber,” many of which were on display and for sale at
DomCon.
If you can’t wait ’til the next DomCon in May 2018, you can get your fix
at the Southern version of DomCon, held in New Orleans this October.
You don’t want to get tied up and not go … maybe just tied up.
