VIC Online advert removed without logical basis

[Tas]

Hi,

I've advertised a small pocket knife online.

The service provider forcibly withdrew my add citing it failed to comply with a general prohibition on weapons and related items. However, the service provider hosts many adds for knives including pocket knives.

My add for whatever reason has been singled out and removed.

Is there any legal action available to me?

It's very common for website operators, as part of the general T&Cs,
to have an absolute discretion to remove anything they like,
at any time, for any reason.

Well there is obviously some attribute about your pocket knife that makes it valuable to be worth selling online. That same attribute is likely why the add was removed.
