Apart from a bit of banter in my previous posts, my husband used to sell martial arts weapons way back until the law changed and it became illegal.

Even had lots confiscated by the police.

Received some money for them though which was good.

Yes, getting knives imported into Australia legally is a real headache these days and most people don't know of the trouble we Sellers go to to get them here whilst complying with Australian laws.

I too have had many runins with customs.  These days it is necessary to know all OZ import laws, which has just changed yet again!

everything I sell has been imported legally, so you think one wouldn't have a problem selling them.

2 days to go.

thanks,

Back to the original topic, Lyndal had it spot on. They were delisted because the bot would automatically pick up the word ivory and from there it would be automatic. Once you can relist the the word out of the title and for extra safety in the description use nonivory as one word then you should be OK.

Thanks to the supporters at these discussion forums.

I have now had my restrictions removed (big whoop!) and have relisted the items.  I haven't used the word Ivory, but Cow Bone as advised by eBay.  I know what the bots do, so I have hopefully removed any trigger.  I wonder what would happen if I said they were made from Unicorn Horns (sarcasm intended).

I hate arguing Australian Law to eBay people sporting Yankee accents in the Philippines!

 

Thanks Everyone, I hope I can help you guys too one day.
