Item Restoration is a free service that Blizzard offers to help restore any items that may have been vendored, disenchanted, obliterated during Legion, scrapped, or even destroyed in World of Warcraft by mistake but can only be used to restore up to fifty items once every seven days for each character. It was made available as a service on 1 May 2012 with an initial 30 day cooldown.[1]

Restoring an item

An example mail

Players that use the service will receive the item(s) attached to a letter from Customer Support. This process is usually instantaneous and doesn't require a logoff of the character. Items that were sold to a vendor would have require buying that vendor price back to take the item from the letter.

For items, it is INTENDED to be 7 days, but the change got delayed, and the article was wrong. They are still working on it. Sorry for any confusion. There are two different types, character - and item, and while they are suppose to match not everything got in.”
