More details to this question:
Hi,
I have an online site selling sunglasses.
I am carrying the name brand sunglasses and I do not have an authorized dealership. I got a call from the company and they want me to remove all the sunglasses from my site.
It is simple if I remove those frames from my site.
The problem is I want to sell these sunglasses, because it sells well.
What if I keep selling these sunglasses, what will happen?
Can they sue me?
Are they able to came to my store and collect the sunglasses?
If they can do that, what about all the ebay seller sell products without dealership licence.

As a general matter, if you acquired the sunglasses lawfully (including the people you acquired them from having acquired them lawfully), you may sell them. They are your property and you have an absolute right to dispose of them. You also have the right to advertise them truthfully.
It is possible that the sunglasses you are selling were imported into the United States unlawfully or that they are counterfeit. In those circumstances, you may have liability for their sale.
You should consult with an attorney who specializes in intellectual property law.
