I've also noticed the 'Perfected Alchemist Fire' on the AH which were the 2d6 ones.
About these: The fires produced by the Master Alchemist class have the flavor text of the old 2D6 ones but behave correctly when lobbed at someone.

were they by any chance some monk gloves with 1d4 piercing? Someone did complain i've sold them with GMW activated, tho it wasnt intentional, also due to language bug i couldnt talk to the person as i would have happily bought them back.

there are several things:
-first thing is that there are no +5 items so if you bought them you knew that they have been enchanted
-there is no way you could buy a +5 item for a price like that
-there are items that are broken as the stats in them arent working so if you buy something like that from ah would you held the person that sold them responsible or the DM that refused to take the item?

Anyway, if it was you that bought them and you still want the money bk i am more than happy to trade for the price you;ve paid.

Yeah that was me. (Flasmix actually knows it was me, he was just trying not to point fingers I think.) And it was done IC, and it was hilarious. To be fair, I "sold" it for only like 500 gp or something. But it was to a flaming fist back when they were players - from my old sorc who was notoriously an untrustworthy individual. But the guy got really upset about it and the DM's made a rule about not doing that, even IC. I wasn't punished or anything as it was not my intention to steal any significant amount and there were no rules in place at the time to stop me. But I mean a +5 Longsword named "Odd Sword" being sold for 500 gold...when it's too good to be true right? 8-) Keep in mind this was before the Auction House was a thing as well.
