    The BDSM section is much smaller than it used to be.

    This is your friendly neighborhood sex-toy shop! It may not have the variety that one can find on the world wide web, but it has the added benefit of instant gratification, and a fairly decent selection considering the size of the store. You can find everything from condoms and lube, all sorts of sex toys, and cute manties, to more hardcore items, like a human-size cage, rubber sheets, and a plethora of other *achem* specialty items. You can even find items for Bachelor/Bachelorette parties, including penis and boob cake pans, as well as some women's fetish clothing (not much, and no plus sizes!), and even one lonely display of pornographic DVD's...I guess everyone's streaming these days? Erm. You know what I mean. This store is blessedly 100% WHEELCHAIR-ACCESSIBLE...yes, even the aisles are wide and the turn radii are a piece of cake! And even if one of the middle racks was too far in one direction, they are on wheels and can be easily pushed in any direction. Given what a rarity finding an actually-accessible store in this city can be in general, this is such a welcome change, I'd give them 10 stars if I could!! The only issue I encountered during my visit to this shop the other day was a complete language barrier with the one employee behind the counter. He was clearly a nice person and wanted to help me, but couldn't understand a word I said and struggled to articulate any response, none of which made sense to me, either. He was able to handle ringing up my purchase just fine, but my question about a product was left unanswered. If you are someone who needs a lot of assistance and/or direction when it comes to your sextoy shopping experience, you might want to bring a knowledgeable friend, or even do some research online before heading over...or heck, while you're in the store! This store is a gem in this neighborhood, an opportunity to enhance your sex life while shopping in a clean, well-lit, fully-accessible store!

    Many many options for all different tastes, but honestly the art here is hilarious and colorful!

    I'm finally catching up on my "Year-End"...Most Favorites of 2022!!! And, In NO logical order is this AAAHHH-SOMELY FUN (yes, I use my own/personal dictionary) and Totally Adult rated boutique in the Hip Castro District of San Francisco, CA. Mind you, I was not in the mood to do home décor shopping this particular evening...check out my snapshots...I was shopping for "Something-Something"...if you get my drift...MMMmmmKaye! Anyways, walking into D.Y.M.K. on this particular evening I was literally drawn to the Cash Register area all because of my snapshots...I automatically ask if I could get one of those mini Rainbow Icee table lamps...Chris & Hugo behind the counter said that...this is your lucky day because that is the last "one"...(it's the floor sample), in which I asked "How much"??? (I actually don't remember what he told me) I said yes, Chris went to look for the box for the table lamp and I said don't worry but I did ask a very important question and that was..."Can you please give me a floor model merchandise discount"??? And wouldn't you know it...Chris said yes and offered me a discounted price on my newly purchased mini table lamp!!!!! Chris you have made me a totally loyal customer of D.Y.M.K. for life!!! So if you are reading this post...I want to spread my life experiences through YELP!!! And I hope the next time you are in a situation like this one I am sharing to you...Note to Self: Always ask the Manager behind the counter if they would be willing to offer a floor model discount!!! My purchase savings was on the sales tax! I have met some great people and I know that I will continue to receive great service at Does Your Mother Know??? Well Does She???

    That's more of a deadly weapon lol! - VN

    What better thing to do on a Thanksgiving Day than visit an adult store before heading to the bar for some cocktails? Our lazy day had us wandering 18th Street in the Castro after having brunch, and we happened to stumble upon this store. What caught our eyes was something long, and enormously big and black sitting in the window. I asked out loud "Where are you supposed to put that thing?" and walked away from the group shaking my head. I was hanging out outside while my spouse and friends went in. Of course I get the shout out and hand signal to come in. Sigh... Because if you see something odd or gross, you want others to see it too. It's what you do. Being in the Castro, the shop caters more to the LGBT market. The shop was clean and organized. Without going into details, you can find a wide variety of items, from personal to gag gifts, the latter of which I should've made a purchase for as a grab bag gift, but I wasn't about to stuff my suitcase with items that would make me ashamed should the TSA decide to pop it open for a check!? LOL. OVERALL: For business, pleasure, or emergencies, it's a convenient, one-stop shop!

    This shop have been here as long as I have lived. It's a…read morehuge part of SF Chinatown history. They sell traditional Chinese red envelopes with unlimited variations of designs, traditional Chinese New Years decorations and some tech stuff (aux plug or headphone plugs). Inside is a warm light (yellow), so colors/dye of decorations won't fade. It's a pretty huge space, they have red envelopes throughout the stores on very corner. Ranging and categorizing by events such as weddings, good luck, wealth, health, education, and they have a whole wall of customize last names. Today my mom bought a wedding envelope. That will be used for my cousins upcoming wedding. $3.95 and there's 2 inside. That's a pretty cheap price (Pricing depends on quality and design) Only con- The shop smells. It reeks of dry sweat and piss. There is no window installment. Idk if it's bad venting or no air conditioning or because they share venting with the chicken shop next door or because lots of homeless people piss in the alley... But they should find a fix. Because that is the #1 reason why they're not receiving business because customers aren't willing to stay in a smelly shop. And with more customers in there, the more stuffier it gets. While I was shopping today, 2 groups came in. One couple and a group of 6-8 young adults. The couple walked in and straight out. The group did a lap, complimented on the things but made fun of the smell, laugh and left.

Probably have been visiting for over 10 years at this point. With rent hyper increasing in areas like this, sadly, we're probably going to see less of these unique shops and a gross amount of chains and generic copy paste shops, unfortunately. I'm going to miss seeing that little Totoro plushie and they did have a big sale and large outpouring of support in the final days. Let's see what the future brings for J-town.

    Dear Japan Video/じゃぱんビデオへ (I know this is my 2nd letter to someone/a business on Yelp because I did…read morethis for Uncle Clay's), Thank you for being a pillar for what was it? 40 years? That sounds about right. You and stores of the past made me who I am today. (I remember a neighboring store having merchandise of a game series that never appeared here in "Sentimental Graffiti"/"センチメンタルグラフティ".) I don't remember when I started visiting, but I would always come by with my city friends or at least just 1 of them. Since Yelp wants me to type up the "service" part of these reviews, the place always thrived there. Oh, and I always thought that even though I did spend more than what I want, it's more of me wanting to avoid spending, but I end up buying an item that has a cute girl anyway. Ha ha ha! Well, enjoy the earlier than expected retirement. (Dog gone rent hikes.) Someone should make a display or whatever to protect the legacy. I better get going. ありがとうございました! ^^ - Don, San Jose/Milpitas +/The jiving and vivid memories, with the selection and interactions, have me remember the place. -/No flaws.
