Blasting Cap Display - Able to be Sold?

I've got a vintage blasting cap display that was used to warn kids about their dangers. The caps are dummies. Do you think this is safe to list and sell here on ebay? Thanks.

Technically they are ok, because they are Not explosives, just "dummy"

 

However, I'm not sure how the Bots would react to Blasting Cap in your listing,

nor everyone else who would report it.

So if I do list, think I should leave blasting cap out of the listing? I've had some other listings removed recently, so I'm trying to tread carefully. If I do list, may wait a month or so.

Try and see if you get the bot warning, if you do, change the title to vintage educational explosive warning aid? good luck with this.

They get funny about ordnance of any kind.  Empty brass shell casings, dummy grenades and such can trigger unpleasantness in selling experiences.  Policies are unevenly applied.

 

I'd be more inclined to donate it to a school or something similar.

OK kids, time to get the Dodge loaded up again. I hear 'Poppy's By the Tree' calling. This trip might be a long one too.

Thanks for your input. Might give it a try but wait a while to do so.

There is a huge chance the bots will pull that listing and then you will have to call ebay CSR and you will end up with Achmed in Bombay and he will not be able to help you. There are other better venues for an item like that.

As you have had other listings pulled, you are on the bot's radar.

I would not risk listing it.

I agree with Dave.  Not a good idea to list this.  

 

You want to stay safe.

I know of a pyrotechnic club in Indiana that would be interested in that for S&Gs.
