Price gouging - unable to sell some items

[englishgentuk]

Hi

I posted this query a few days ago and got an answer which i erroneously marked as answered, but im still facing the issue.

Im trying to sell an old gameboy game (Category: Video Games & Consoles > Video Games) and it is saying i cannot sell this item... "It looks like there's a problem with this listing. Because this item is susceptible to price gouging, it may be sold only by authorized sellers. Do not relist this item."

I have sold a fair few items, including some old gamegear games that are due to end today, so im not sure why im being blocked from selling this similar item. I would have thought i was an "authorised seller". 

Any advice appreciated.

Many thanks!

That message is usually associated with items of PPE which need approval from eBay to be listed, there must be a word in the title or item specifics which is confusing the bots making them think you're listing masks, hand sanitiser or somethng.
