Resources for getting into BDSM for M20 and F21

My girlfriend (F21) and I (M20) have been together for over 2 years and have done quite a bit of fun stuff, from both of us enjoying both sides of anal to semi-public voyeurism. Our sex life is a blast and we just have so much fun together. But we never really touched BDSM.

I remember my mom reading Fifty Shades of Grey when I was growing up, so when my girlfriend suggested we watch the movies together, I had this weird aversion to it. She finally convinced me, however, and we binged the first 2 tonight. Some takeaways:

-Sub/Dom is not for us. We are both switches and while it's fun to RP in the bedroom, we want to maintain a relationship centered on equality. -Bondage is hot as fuck. We were both aching and squirming through the movies. Unfortunately, one of our mutual friends was watching with us, so we were unable to let loose. -We don't have enough sex toys.

So my question is this: where should we go to find higher-quality equipment and toys for decent prices? We shopped at 2 sex shops today; one was trashy and all the stuff was super low-quality and the other was wayyyy out of our budget. Very nice stuff. We're college students and like eating at least a few meals a day. Adam and Eve has good deals, but most of their stuff seems low-end. Thanks in advance!
