Title: Best STP/packers for under $100
Post by: lionheart on August 26, 2015, 08:51:30 PM
I was planning on buying the EC 5" 3 in 1, but now they have an 8-10 week wait time and I don't know if I can wait that long. I want something that I can use as an STP as well as a packer, preferably under 6". I've never used an STP before and I don't really know anything about my anatomy (I know certain ones can be difficult to use depending on that kinda stuff) so I'm pretty much open to anything, I just don't want to spend a lot of money. What are your recommendations?

FreeToM is pretty generous with their clearance section, they take a lot off of the models for usually little issues

I use the Mr Limpy with funnel from tranzwear. It was around £22 so really cheap plus even on the first go it worked perfectly. Also my first stp ever. Not sure what the postage is like though.

Before you spend lots of money on it, I'd do some cheap experimentation to see what style works best with your anatomy. Look up homemade STPs. I learned with a medicine spoon ($2). They also make funnel-like ones for camping ($8). I think I've seen people use coffee can lids, but I've never personally tried that one.

Based on that you'll have a better idea of what style you should be looking for and you'll have a better idea looking at pictures whether or not something will work for you and be comfortable. Nothing worse than spending $100+ on something only to find out it doesn't work for you.

Yeah, I do check that out every so often but it seems like they don't have much right now.

They update every 2-4 weeks, it might be a while unfortunately
