According to The Sydney Morning Herald, Steven Shubin, the brand's intellectual property owner, has filed a lawsuit with onberg and his sexy world adult chain.
Interactive lifestyle Fleshlight, with sales of more than 7 million worldwide, is one of the most popular male sex toys on the market.
It is alleged that Mr. schöberg sold counterfeit products in his store between August and October 2015, at this time, he was apparently found selling products in a "trap purchase" made by employees of the company's Australian branch.
Matthew Esber, general counsel for interactive life forms, said counterfeit operations like this are essentially cheating customers.
"We think that competition is healthy, but competitors should create their own original intellectual property rights instead of stealing our intellectual property rights.
"In the end, these losses affect our product development, operational areas, and ultimately our customers," Mr Esber said . ".
According to court documents, the official "fleshlight" was sold in the store before it was suspected of counterfeit shares.
Court documents show that Mr. Shubin and Mr. Schooneberg communicated about alleged infringement of intellectual property rights but failed to reach an agreement.
The preliminary hearing of the Sydney federal court has been held in front of judge Anna Catman next week.
Australia's Daily Mail is trying to reach out to Mr. Sean Berg through the sexual goods store in Bundell.
