Luckily I just encountered something like this once, but hey ... I didn't have enough money on the char, so I was just wondering why I couldn't buy the pot

Dont know if its scamming or not, but sure feels like it, when ppl put up armour with spellcrafting on, to the exact same prices as the rest, sometimes 1g lower so you notice it. Again its just a matter of delving the item, but why would you expect people putting up stuff at the same prices.

No its not, just Open your eyes. This isnt Kindergarden.

Unfortunately we do not have the item-naming system from live that made it easier to identify SC'd peices.
Ex) "shimmering Heatbender silksteel woven gloves"

Anyway, this form of scamming existed on live. What was even more annoying, that we do not have to deal with here, were those that sold potions with 1/9 charges left.

There is really nothing you can do about this but avoid it or look for it. I certainly do not purchase potions in housing for this reason.
