Default quest items disappearing, weirdness when zoning

I have a simple set of quests to uber buff/equip a char. (I play on a private server with my kids, so they get to buff themselves up). Anyway, when the quest runs it works pretty well. I get the hails, respond accordingly and the buff part works perfectly. When I do the "item" portion something gets messed up. I get most of the items requested, but not all of them. Then when I zone the items all re-arrange themselves in my inventory and some disappear. Others appear on my cursor when I zone. Its kinda random so I never end up with the correct equipment. I don't think anything is wrong with the quest, its almost like the items are not getting saved to my character. Anyone have any ideas ?

Code:
sub EVENT_SAY
{
if ($text=~/Hail/i) 
	{
	quest::say("Hello, would you like Some $class [items] or level [buffs]?"); 
	}
if ($text=~/buffs/i) 
	{
	quest::say("Boom! $name you are now a mighty $class!");
	quest::level(75);
	quest::setallskill(252);
	quest::scribespells();
  quest::selfcast(278);  
  quest::selfcast(457);  
  quest::selfcast(1693);
  quest::selfcast(2176);
  quest::selfcast(2177);
  quest::selfcast(3692);
  quest::selfcast(3467);
  quest::selfcast(2570);
  quest::selfcast(13);
  quest::say("Casting Full Buff/Heal, Good hunting!");
	}
if ($text=~/items/i) 
	{ 
	quest::say("Here ya go $name be a mighty $class!");

You should probably use:

if ($class eq "Shaman") {

In perl == is for numeric comparison so you are comparing a string to list of chars. In most cases it will work just because of what perl is doing behind the scenes, but your results may be inconsistent.

As for your zoning thing, it may be that you are trying to summon too many items at once, but I don't know that for sure. That may be causing it do something funny in the client. You could try to separate your armor stuff into categories so that you have to hail a couple of times to get all of it. Might be worth a try.
