These times of prosperity for condom marketers/producers might just be the perfect takeover time. And sure enough we’ve been sent a tip about a possible Legends Condoms sale in Australia. Legends are known for their neat packaging and sell about 4000 tins of condoms a month.
Lately the brand received a lot of publicity because of its plan to showcase controversial artist Hazel Dooney’s work on their condom boxes (it never came to being though). Legends condoms are also the first condoms in the world to be awarded cruelty-free certification from PETA, stating that there’s no animal testing involved in the production of this product.
There are ten various designs for the condom tins that are made in China and Malaysia. In 2007 Legends won a bronze medal for their product in the Packaging Design Awards. Now, in 2009, there two interested purchasers of Legend Rubbers and we might see them in new hands as soon as in two month’s time.

What kind of testing are other manufactures doing on animals??? Is beastiality a regularly testing practice at Trojan and LifeStyles??? I’d hate to be the tester. “Sorry about this Garfield!”
Also, 4000 units a month hardly seems like a successful business model. They better be charging an arm and a leg for these condoms. At that point the rubber costs more than the hooker that you using it on….

You know I’m actually not sure about all of the practices there. But for example it starts with the whole latex harvesting: A thing you’d not expect. That’s why there are fair trade condom concepts too.
