Ok, I found those items before I read the article(and by some kind of idiocy kept them), but then I'm an explorer by nature(there isn't a single area in BG1, BG1:Tales of the Swordcoast, BG:SoA or BG:ToB that I havn't entered at least once. There are 2 exceptions. The Watchers keep labyrinth and the SoA "Test of sanity".).
The only problems I had was to transfer my Golden Pantaloons to SoA.
