Default Concerning items cut from vintage magazines

Posted By: MW 

In additional to not allowing certain JavaScripts, eBay now issues the following warning when the word "reprint" is included within the text of a listing:


Attention Sellers:

It appears that your listing may violate eBay’s policies that regulate where an item can be listed.

The following is provided to protect you from listing in an inappropriate category. Pre-printed items and re-prints are not allowed in the autograph categories. These items MUST be listed in Memorabilia Categories. In addition to this you are required to state "re-print" or "reprint" or "pre-print" or "preprint" in the TITLE. Failure to do so, could result in auctions ended and possible suspension of your account. Please review your listing to make sure that it does not violate this eBay policy.



My question is this: Since those who sell AAA and NASA "graded" scrap are repackaging something that has already been printed (or printed for a different use), could this in any way be considered "pre-printing?" If not (I'm just throwing this one out there), can anyone think of any effect this new policy might have on those who list worthless scraps of paper in categories designed for baseball cards?
