eBay International shipping won't send my item because they said it can't be exported | Buying

I recently purchased a vintage (1980s) computer disk drive from a seller in the US. It was handled by eBay's international shipping program and went to an address in Illinois.Today I received notification that I received a refund because the item cannot be exported. I have made similar purchases through the old GSP and never had an issue, so I do not see how a piece of vintage computer hardware can be restricted. How can I have this appealed? Customer service told me that the seller will receive an email with options, however he hasn't, so I need to know how to have this escalated to someone who can intervene and correct this. Any ideas?
