AdultToyMegaStore Reveals New Sex Toy Sales Spike

WELLINGTON, New Zealand — AdultToyMegastore.com (ATMS) revealed Victoria has led Australia in sales of sex toys and related products over the past month during "stay-at-home" orders due to the coronavirus lockdown.

“Once again, we’re seeing a surge in lubricant, vibrators and batteries. This seems to have coincided with our customers in Victoria staying home due to COVID-19," said Nicola Relph, owner of ATMS. "Our customers have told us they’re avoiding crowds and they want something to do while they’re stuck at home. They’re also not on Tinder or going on dates because they’re worried about COVID-19."

Relph noted "sales have increased week-on-week in Victoria since COVID-19 cases began to increase in late June."

“This week has been our biggest week on record for Melbourne. It has overtaken the unprecedented amount of sales we had in April. We’re hearing from our customers that they’re stockpiling batteries and lubrication in case they’re stuck inside due to self-isolation," she continued.

The latest sales spike matches recent trends. Sales tripled at ATMS in the 48 hours before New Zealand went on national lockdown, noted Relph, while April brought "a major spike centered around New South Wales."

"We have never seen anything like this," Relph observed.

ATMS opened in 2009 and "nothing has come close to the sales we've had in Australia in the past three weeks. Australians are well and truly choosing to enjoy their lockdown with essential items like vibrators and lubricant."

In related news, the results of a survey commissioned by ATMS revealed New Zealanders have recently enjoyed "self-love in lockdown," resulting in an upsurge of interest in pleasure products.
