Expensive condoms

I was thinking of trying out some Sagami 0.01.
But they cost a whopping 90$(+taxes) for 5 pieces.

My problem is, I hear that a large number of providers don't use clients' condoms, or only use it if I bring a sealed unopened box. Is there any truth to this? Would it mean that if I buy a pack of 5, I can only use one of the five with providers? That would be a royal waste of money if that were the case.

The Sagami 0.02 are by far cheaper and aren't an issue, but with the 0.01...

Many providers will only use the condoms they purchase, and bring to the rendezvous.  This may change once she's known the client for a long period of time, and he becomes a regular that she trusts.  

The reason providers do not use client's condoms...Because, clients have been known to stick needles / pins through the packaging of the condom, so when they're engaged in sex, the condom breaks and the client gets to have BBFS.

shin2caim, I hope my reply answers your question.

Here's most likely why they are so expensive....

They cost no more to make than any other condom, so why the high price?

To pay for the law suits that will come from couples who ended up pregnant or with diseases on account of the flimsy things breaking.

Still interested

Jokes aside

Apparently, they are made similarly to how artificial blood vessels are made (however the hell that takes place) and have 7x the heat transfer rate of latex.
It's also much stronger than other polyurethane 0.01mm condoms (apparently).

They are expensive compared to other 0.01 polyurethane jackets, but I've read reviews on all of them and the cheaper 0.01mm condoms that came after it don't seem to hold up.

Anyhow, people swear by this thing and say that it can actually live up to the often claimed "feels like nothing".  
The logic for buying these is that you pay an extra 12~20$ per session to make your sex feel almost like bareback.
For something that feels like BB but is safe, many even consider 20$ to relatively cheap.

That's what got me interested.
Though, I wouldn't be able to verify if it actually feels like BB because I've never had BB.

Re: Yes...

I wish I couldn't believe that people actually do that.
This is why we can't have nice things.

Anyways, many thanks for the insight! I appreciate it.
I wonder how many is "many" though.

Maybe a hobbyist who regularly brings their own can shed some light on this.

A lot of people here (TER Boards) swear that female condoms are very pleasurable for all. FC is now part of the Provider Profile, too.  

How are the Sagami's sized? You could end up with too tight or too loose ("It's too loose, Lautrec."). Once the FC is inserted, it's "one size fits all.

Been looking to try

I've been looking to try but it's hard to find providers with FC.
Most providers have FC listed as "unknown" and it's not like I can simply go around asking "do you use FC?" to providers until I actually meet them in person.  

Hell, even the ones with FC listed as "yes", I don't know if they carry regularly.

As for Sagami size, Japanese sizes are a bit smaller than North American ones.
Polyurethane condoms also do not stretch like latex does.
The combination of the two can mean that they can be a bit snug for those that are above average in size.
That's why a lot of people order L size for the 0.02 Sagami.
For 0.01, that option doesn't exist but apparently people just deal with it because it feels so good

I've never had an issue

With my own being used, but I can see why providers would want to use their own.

Re: Jokes aside

I use the Segami 0.02 when I can.  The issue is is that they run small and even though I have the large, they rarely fit most of my clients.

I used them for my clients

I am originally from Japan(Sagami is a Japanese company) and whenever I go home, I always buy them there.  

Even in Japan, they are expensive(12 condoms/2300 yen plus 9% tax). However, the thinness of 0.01mm are truly incredible!  
Yes, regular size of Sagami Original are too small for American clients, so I buy mostly L sizes.  

The interesting thing I found out about condoms are some gentleman only believes particular brands and want to use only those which is most of the time very thick and bulky. I buy those old fashioned ones too just in case...
