A few days ago, I listed an unused and unopened bottle of Aunt Jemima syrup for sale on eBay. I have a couple of these that I purchased in 2020 during the BLM riots and the assault on American culture. I had no idea what the level of interest would be for this. But I was mildly to start getting bids right away and the bidding price reached $38 at one point. I noticed a problem with eBay right away as they would allow to use the words or term "Aunt Jemima". So, I had to list it as "AJ Syrup" and used the word "discontinued". I discovered this morning that eBay cancelled the auction. "This listing has a policy violation.". Good grief. I'm not really surprised but this is so stupid. I don't know if will work but I posted the link to the auction if you want to see it. What was my "crime" here?
“What happens to the 12-year old Scotch from the liquor store?”
Depends. Are there any venomous snakes about?
Yes. I agree with that statement. Makes sense.
Well, looking at the listing further, I don’t think that was the reason.
-—NEVER OPENED
It is absolute BS that they say “New name, same great taste. Aunt Jemima” on every box. If AJ is racist, get it off your box! “But, we don’t want to lose the brand recognition!” You start from scratch. Don’t trade on a “racist” name that you wanted to discard, you filthy hypocrites.
Try Mercari. It’s way better than eBay for the sellers. Just don’t try and sell anything from Cuba, they’ll pull that.
