I wondered the following.
1. How often do each of you buy panties, if ever?
2. How many panties were in your largest single purchase?
3. When you buy panties do you have a spending limit?
My answers are
1. It can be daily. There is no reason not to buy panties daily if there is the need.
2. 34
3. Yes, but it is difficult to keep within it.

1. A few times a year.
2. Three.
3. I don't usually buy that many so it's not an issue for me.

1. A few times a year, 3-4 usually.
2. 5 pairs
3. Usually no limit on spending, but they all must be purchased in a brick and mortar store in person to see the reaction of the sales person. Always fun to see their reaction of a panty buying man.

On a subsequent visit to that shop, I did actually buy a pair of those panties in the box on the counter. It was a different sales woman, and she helped me with an initial request I had. I wanted to go in for panties with sturdier stitching, of the elasticated legs in particular. I knew that there were panties where the elastic was an actual complete band stitched to the fabric, using an over locker to produce a complex zigzag pattern around the legs. I wanted to take in more the different feel of different types of panties, not just material or style, but to consider the rationale to the approach of a design, so that I could wear panties more authoritatively, and enjoy women’s company better as a feminine man.
She smiled as if she knew exactly what I meant and went to a cabinet to produce a particularly pretty pair of translucent white panties with a pastel floral pattern running across. She showed me the legs and waist, and demonstrated the stretch of the elastic, and how the leg openings got bigger in a controlled manner. She said “You have to accept that the likelihood of vpl is greater with panties like these, but, you know, if we don’t have vpl we get accused of not wearing panties, and if we do have vpl it’s like the biggest fashion fail in the world. At the end of the day, so what? “ She stretched the panties again. “These ones stay put, avoid wedgies, and feel really nice. I am sure they will be perfect for you. A very nice little brief!”
Like a good sales woman she asked if it was just the one pair, as they had black, pink, mauve and yellow as well. As it happens, I worship mauve with black elastic, but she told me those panties didn’t come with contrasting trim. We agreed on a mauve pair and a black pair. She put them in a corporate bag with tasteful text on and a bas relief design of a woman in bra, panties, suspenders and stockings, and handed it to me with a dazzling smile. She then noticed I was looking at the cheap panties in the box on the counter. Right away she said “Those ones don’t sell. They are for people who don’t know much about panties. You could wear them for five minutes, but not all day like us ladies.”
“They do look tight round the legs …” I mused.
“Precisely!” she said. “But, there are no returns on these ones. They will tear quickly on the seams, and doubtless feel a bit uncomfortable. Round the legs.”
Another saleswoman had hoved into view, and just stood nearby. I had found that “precisely” was a trigger word when a sale was beginning to be too long, or someone was pointlessly annoying. The new woman was someone who could lower the temperature in a room just by looking at you. I just said quickly “Could I buy a pair anyway?” “Of course, 50 pence.” I handed over the coin, and got the panties in a paper bag with no receipt.
I thanked them and left, and it was all smiles again. Next time I got to see my regular lady, and checked out her attendance days. I didn’t mention the cheap panties box ever again.
At home, the expensive panties were a joy to slip on, I like to feel safe and secure in my panties when out, knowing that they are there for me. They looked great under sheer pantyhose too, feminine but in a way which isn’t disrespectful of femininity.
The brown panties were actually OK. The waistband was just to size so rather taut, but the leg elastic had been stitched in too tightly and didn’t stretch enough. As you drew them up your legs you reached a point where they became uncomfortable, and as you pulled them into place you were aware of the excessive tightness. The feel of the nylon was nice, but all in all they were an unhappy wear. The seat also was a bit tight but that would probably bother women more. They did start to tear at the seams almost right away.
As to my visit, it had been a fun encounter! Also, I just love to wear panties recently handled, described and demonstrated to me by the sweet woman who sold me them. That’s probably a kink but a pleasant one.
