I think you've been going a bit over the top, Frost.
To be fair, there was no way to really know what was bugged with the item.
It could have been any of the following:
1. It incorrectly had regen in its coding.
2. The description was inaccurate. (it was meant to have both, but didn't state it).
3. The description and price were inaccurate. (it was meant to have both, and was meant to be more expensive).
Since it has been changed, we can see that the it was number 1, in that it was coded differently than how the Devs envisioned it when they planned it.
But there was no way to know that before. We have examples of situations two and three to some degree... There are several examples of two handed weapons that incorrectly stated they were one handed, and prices have been out of whack before (though to my knowledge, it was always the opposite, ie. they lowered the price of an item and allowed people to get a rebate).
I don't think this was exploiting a glitch, per se., simply because there was no way to know what was glitched. It could have been a situation where the price was out of line with other regen, making it a bargain. I do think that people should get their money back, and the 12 day window should be relaxed.
