I wonder that myself I lost my mommy eye chalice in the same manor. I chalk it up to being to close to the mp-10. Or it was just poor stock or did not like my kessil. IDK I may never know.
Spent the weekend working a booth at Reef A Palooza out here. The perks, I got to meet all the suppliers, and sport shop before the general public got in the doors. Course, I was too busy to sport shop much, but did manage 2 new items.
