I think mystery box listings have caused far to many issues and as a seller on a platform with very strict seller standards you might want to rethink using this marketing technique.
Also I think it is against eBay listing practices.

If you think that other sellers are getting away with breaking the rules, that just means they haven't been caught yet.
eBay does say that Mystery items that don't identify the contents are not allowed.

Never go by the fact you see other listings for something. That does not mean those listings are eBay legal. Always check ebay policy before listing; never assume. Do not relist this as it would be pulled. You are now on the radar. Relisting again could result in sanctions against you, temporary or permanent suspensions.
