I have recently attempted to list postage stamps of Cuba. But unfortunately have been prevented by Ebay with reason being the US embargo of Cuba. I am puzzled about this as these stamps were part of a lot purchased previously on Ebay. Could anyone also explain why there are 10,000+ items listed in this category on Ebay yet mine is refused. Any assistance with this problem is greatly appreciated.

Brian were you perhaps trying to list them on ebay.com and not on ebay.com.au??
they are certainly banned on ebay.com (USA)

I have written something like your situation in Italy.
I have copied it:
"Embargo Cuban coins and stamps on ebay Italy: here we go again!
Welcome to the country of the wonders of ebay.
As Aice we have already challenged the Luxembourg-based company that owns the site ebay europe sarl Italian and mediator of buying and selling the irregularity to close sale listings of old used and empty boxes of Cuban cigars out of business (in particular the well-known brand PARTAGAS but also other ) with the paradoxical found that they were subject to embargo.
In fact, they do not fit into any embargo and the closure of these ads constituted a breach of contract by the company itself with civil liability for damage caused to customers sellers.
This action has been "invented" by a group of officials from Italians living abroad employees of the Luxembourg company for fear that the company ebay California, true owner of all companies formed ebay Chinese boxes, something could blame them poor Italian officials fully submissive to the will and prone central business (when convenient to appear).
However, we have found that on ebay usa used empty boxes are regularly sold in the hundreds, we have collected the testimonies of the American sellers who have established themselves that these empty boxes do not fit into any embargo and that the company allows their sale ebay California in the world of ebay.
So this initiative closing misappropriation of ads launched by a number of Italian officials ebay europe sarl has no basis from the real leaders of its sister companies ebayane.
In short: some Italian officials have closed the adverts by mistake for fear of being reprimanded by ebay usa and when one has told them that those assets did not fit the embargo, they insisted closing them the same.
We later found out that instead Cuban cigars partagas new fumabilissimi prohibited by the embargo and are sold on ebay. Not only partagas, but these also.
This, by the American Society of ebay involves a serious violation by the American authorities punished with fines of up to one million dollars and imprisonment for up to 10 years by the manager.
We hope that the administrator is not always that poor Olga who lives in a one bedroom apartment and ebay knows very little. We hope that the FBI is not going to stop her that poor woman to see her in the picture no one would say that it is really the administrator of such a rich society.
In short, because of the insistence of some Italian officials who wanted to ebay obstinately sustain the unsustainable, the question has already come to the U.S. federal offices, and of course the American masters of ebay which were given the names of the Italian officials who wanted so much stand in his zeal against consumers hairy sellers.
Now, always the same, they still do not know what damage they produced instead of protecting the company, are closing their listings of coins and stamps Cuban subsequent to 1963 on the site of the Italian ebay, that in fact fall under the embargo.
But the closures are not the same for everyone, because more than 500 vendors selling today on ebay.it coins and stamps Cuban subsequent to 1963, while others have been closed.
Lack of transparency and honesty is a characteristic of these Italian officials ebay, which not only improve the site as they should do, but through the arrogant presumption to go unpunished, they think they can do anything going on in their head.
Incompetence and bad faith together make the defects of this site, from fraud to breach of contract such as these can only be resolved in court and with complaints and exposed.
In fact, there is no peace without justice".
