In the US and Europe these get seized and destroyed for being counterfeits… and yet Australia allows these 'replicas' to flood the market.

Personally I don't think there is anything wrong when they state it is a replica. Sure if they didn't that's quite a problem, but now given the information it is not. You can get a free replica if you want, but it is just like any clone/replica; buyers risk. You are getting it for cheaper, so I think you should know the quality won't exactly be the same.
These look nice, but they're not that comfortable to sit in over time.
The authentic Eames chairs are comfy, the replica often not.
the important thing is the quality is quite poor they don't last longI've got these Matt Blatt DSWs for the dinner table and they're very comfortable. Maybe not as a lounge chair but that's not what the design is for. Far more comfortable than a standard plastic or wooden flat chair although they do tend to feel a little cold as they 'hug' you more while you sit in them.
I shelled out for what I thought would be an ergonomic desk chair from Matt Blatt a few years ago.
The seat padding went flat after 3 days. I then returned it and was given a replacement seat which flattened in the same time.
It is now a very expensive mobile charging bench.
