Items Disappearing from Bags

Post by NathKnave » July 27th, 2013, 7:35 am

Recently after completing my circuit of pet battle trainers, I've been noticing my bags seemed a little light when I went to vendor. Yesterday I decided to keep track of what was in my bags during my normal daily circuit. My normal route takes me to all the Pandaria tamers, then I use Blessed Medallion of Karabor to teleport to Shadowmoon Valley, then it's off to Icecrown using Argent Crusader's Tabard, then I use Wrap of Unity to get to Stormwind and use the portals at the Earthshrine to fight the tamers in Mount Hyjal, Deepholm, and Uldum. When I'm all done, I use The Innkeeper's Daughter to head home to the Shrine of Seven Stars.

I kept careful track of what was in my bags the whole time, and I found that every time I used an item to teleport me, all of the grey items in my bags were gone when I arrived. I've only seen this happen with the grey items from the bags of pet supplies that I had gotten from battle pet trainers.

I submitted it as a bug in-game, but I was wondering if anyone else has seen this happen to them.

I do the same thing, teleporting around to get to battles faster, but I haven't noticed any vendor trash disappearing. I'll keep a closer eye on it today though and see if I notice anything weird. I assume you don't happen to have one of those addons that vendors greys for you?

I noticed the same thing with the grey junk items.

Try logging in and out a few times very quickly on your character that does the dailys. I did this and magically 100s of grey junk items started appearing in my inventory.

I noticed something similar when tilling in Halfhill. I was farming Windwool cloth that wasn't appearing in my bags, but I was still able to access making them into bolts via my tailoring skill. So some items are "invisible". I tried logging in and out several times, a couple times completely, resetting my UI, still didn't help. Next time I see it happen I'll try to disable my addons...

When I logged on today my backpack was full of the junk that had disappeared over the last couple of days. I also got back a bunch of Jaggal Clam Meat that I had submitted a bug report about awhile back that disappeared in the same way. It seems like it might be a bug with items that are looted without opening an actual loot window.

Hmm, weird, after I did my usual dailies on alts (didn't see anything disappear from their bags), I logged on my main and found my bags were completely full of grey vendor junk from yesterday's pet battles even though I know I cleared my bags last night. Also nothing was in stacks like usual - I had 2 unstacked hairballs, 3 unstacked tattered collars. Those normally stack themselves as you open bags. So there does seem to be something odd going on.

This is an actual known bug by blizz, I also found it out while at halfhill when some of the herbs i harvested had disappeared.

I ticketed and got a similar responce as above. I got some of my items magically back, and some in the mail. I quit leaving things in my backpack, and moved them to other bags. Also when mailing things, they wouldn't arrive for several days if mailed from my backpack. Wierd! :lol:

This might be a related bug; when taking "auction expired" items from my mailbox and going immediately to the AH to repost, some items are showing as damaged and must be repaired before posting. Anyone else getting this?

I will start being more aware of my battle pet trainer goodies and report back.

I've not seen the grey's disappearing, but since maintenance, i've noticed a serious lack out stones dropping from the bags.

Anyone else noticed this?

Oddly, yes and no. Right after maintenance for a few days, I got no stones, then magically (I think it was on Saturday), I got 3 stones in a row from Pandaria dailies and 2 from the old world dailies. I just thought it was horrible RNG luck and then really great RNG luck...and then Sunday, I got nothing again. It's not odd for me to do all the dailies for a day and see no stones drop, but it is odd for me to do them a few days in a row and see nothing.
