I actually don't think that's expensive.

I'd like to know a bit more about the specific 316 stainless steel they're using, but if that's solid, I don't think it's ridiculously expensive for what it is.

I really lusted after the Eleven but couldn't afford it. My boyfriend gifted it to me, bought it during a discount/promotion event.

I have to say, I would buy this myself as it offers more then a multitude of less expensive toys. The Eleven remains one of my favorite toys for an extended, usually solo sessions. My orgasms are intense and I just love the feel of this big boy!

It is very high quality stainless, has retained its luster and is extremely low maintenance to care for.

There's a thread about which EFers own the Eleven.

It's big & a novelty. That's why. Probably low production volume, which raises the price.

That is a really high price.. Wow. I guess it's high quality, but..wow! I can't justify the price.

It's still cheaper than the Lelo Olga, which is tiny by comparison.

I kinda see the Eleven as an investment rather then just another toy. I have had it for a few years and rarely fails to please! Just love the Eleven!

Got the back in stock notice. This toy scares me. Very well made though.

It's a big lump of solid metal, so material costs are going to be high to begin within.

It's also a product with niche appeal, so only a small volume will ever be made. This means the savings that come from mass production aren't available, and the end consumer must foot a greater proportion of the costs involved in paying people to design and manufacture it.

It's a shame it's so pricey. It really does look nice and seems like it would be fairly low maintenance.

I do think it is the fact that it's solid -- and for that size and quality, $300 might be pricey, but if it's as good as reviewers seem to find it, it's also worth it.

I don't know if I'd ever pay over $100 for a dildo. I can get off just fine with a $25 one. =P

It is very expensive, but after having mine a couple months, I think it's worth it!

probably because, not many companies forge steel dildos

Looks like a great toy, but the price is just too steep! Unless you use all your points on it

Luxury comes with a price is all I can really say about it.

If it really is solid stainless steel (unlike what I'm hearing about Metal Worx reviews) then it is totally worth the outrageous price tag to have that dildo. There won't be many more like it and seriously, how many of people would you know that own another one just like it? That would be NONE.

Old thread, but I think it's justified when you figure the weight and material.

I think there is just a niche market for super duper expensive sex toys. Remember Victoria Beckham buying that solid gold vibe?
