The founder of an "adult department store" chain in Melbourne, Angelo Abella, did not notice the prank on the stage, and he searched the aisle for the next blockbuster.
"There are more women entering our store now than men," he said . ".
"I'm here to find new products and buy them.
Abella's store looks more like a warehouse, trying to dispel the notion that the sex store is small, dark and shabby.
He sells 80 to 100 kilograms of a vibrator every week, with thousands of models in stock, ranging from 50 to 200 Australian dollars ($45. 77 to $183. 09)a pop.
