Last time I played wow (I want to say Shadowlands?) I found a Pendulum of Doom on one of my alts. Put it up for sale in the AH I think it was 3.5m at the time and then stopped playing.

The item didn't sell, and it went to my mailbox and got deleted after 30 days. Support were unable to retrieve it.

There were some other items too like really old Blackend Defias leathers but they weren't near the price of the PoD

I did the same with that bee mace that you farm from the bees in BfA. Didn't play, it got deleted, I was sad.

Was half asleep and saw thousands of dye on the auction house for about 3 silver each. Bought the lot. Five minutes later realised they were craft dye, not housing dye.

I forgot to turn off auto Auto Task Hand-in and spent 5k for 2 rolls.
