Missing gear

[Browncow]

I posted a ticket on my 70 enhance shaman, Ugotwrecked, but i just wanted to make sure GM saw it. I hadnt played for a few months and when i came back i was in ZA and i was killed by a few mobs after maybe 30 seconds. Before i died i was just looking at my gear. After i died and resurrected, my OH weapon and my shoulders were gone. My offhand weapon was Mounting Vengeance, and my shoulders were Mantle of the Golden Forest. i ran ZA for those several times, and they were not easy to get. Is there any way I can get them back?
Thank you

June 6th, 2011:

• Black Temple and Sunwell Plateau have been opened. These two raids will be retiring Scarlet Citadel and Zul'Aman. Zul'Aman is now reverted back to it's normal loot, so if you raid it -- you'll get the normal loot. (new raids might still contain some bugs!)
• Tier 6 weapons for sale in the mall have been increased in price. 2-handed weapons are now 40 badges, 1-handed, 30 as well as ranged. Various rings/necklaces/shields, etc all Tier 6 items with prices were increased.
• Tier 6 offset prices were increased from 30 badges to 40.
• Due to the new raid difficultly level, and without upsetting too many players we've agreed to remove (only) all Sunwell weapons, shields & shoulders from players to make it fair for the new raiding. The Sunwell weapons & shoulders in the donor mall are no longer free, they now cost honor. (this is for the PvP players & donors who always ask to add things to spend their honor points on)
• Cleaned up gold displays on items that had badge prices that were going off the page.
• Thori'dal now costs 150 badges.
• Due to the bug with Thori'dal actually stacking with quiver effects, we've removed that buff from the item. This will sort of cancel out the problem, until there is a proper fix made.
• Gruul's Lair is now opened for fun. No real purpose to raid him unless you want for the experience.
• Reputation rates are now x3, down from x10.

so it took me about 30 runs of ZA to get those and then they get yanked.
Thanks
