Kokomo TB&G: Don't be mad at Tikifish for asking questions--I was wondering the same thing. Anyway, I'm sure you know from experience as an eBay buyer that when you're interested in an item, you should ask about anything that's not clear. Especially with so many of the items for sale at eBay labelled "rare,""hard to find," "vintage," and "old" (or my new favorite "Art Deco"!) rather fancifully. Your answer about familiarity with ceramics and estimate that the mugs are from the 60s-70s is a decent answer to explain what you meant by "old." (I expect that what you meant by "rare" is what you said in the item description: that you hadn't seen that mug on eBay before.)

I do like the sleepy faces on those tiki mugs! Very cute.
