Are you sure there was not an option to go ahead with the listing?
I got a similar message when I posted World War II U.S. Ration tickets. I was able to click through and post.
To Jay’s point, sometimes there are forbidden trigger words in the title. For example yesterday I tried to list a vintage pinback with pro marijuana theme (it was just a lapel pin).
The title:
Vintage Smoking Marijuana Hippie Pinback Button God Made Grass…
Got flagged and I was told I could not sell smoking paraphernalia. I remove the work “smoking” and the listing posted.

@craig rex – wow thanks for all that detailed information. I know nothing about sports and I know less about cards. It’s always interesting to get a peak into other peoples expertise.
And lets try that again….
ABL! – Always be Listing.

@DarlinDis – Someone is selling the viewers at a super reasonable price –
This is not my listing –
I bought a pair for 13.00 bucks. It will be fun to play with and then hopefully will add to the value of my listing.
Wow – people if you deal in anything related to vintage stereoscopes, book mark that link. What an amazing resource.
@DarlinDils. Wow! What a journey down the rabbit hole. Thank you so much for taking the time to assist me with.
I love these obscure viewers, gonna do me some readin’!
@Antique Frog Thanks for posting that article. I’ve been meaning to learn more about the Otagiri brand. I had been hesitant to use the name unless it was printed on the mug, but it sounds like the brand name can be used as an adjective.
Since the brand was discontinued in 1994 – it’s doesn’t sound like anyone lawyers are hyperactive with VeRO claims (yet).
Oh Mugs – I can’t quit you!
Every day that I go out, I tell myself “no more mugs” and then more come home with me.
They sell at a steady clip, but I am running out of space for them.
@antique – pretty sure these are not handmade – more photos included in the listing.
They are all pretty much identical. If they were handmade, wouldn’t there be variations in the pattern from mug to mug?
Oops I thought i posted all 3 pics together.
Trying again…
Flip Side
the holy grail – the Carol Brady Mug
Thanks! I decide to let it go for $100.00 which is more than similar ones have gone for via auction.
Thanks so much for sharing that perspective. I am sorry for your loss but it sounds like you are handling everything the best way possible.
I now my past 3 years in the “Scavenger life” has really changed my perspective on things. I am still an ardent materialist but I know everything I own is just on temporary loan from the universe.
I wish happiness to you. Enjoy the memories that come up as you pass things on to new homes.
Hey @ Mark S. I am serious collector of 8mm films. I don’t need the case but am very interested in the movies. Let’s discuss. I take the films and reedit them for an instagram feed – check it out here (you can message me directly there).
