I was playing tonight with the new patch and I had two ears from the
same person at different levels level 9 and level 11.  I dropped both
ears in the Diablo version 1.02 and I got the message Duplicate item
detected and one of them was destroyed.  These were not duped items,
so why did they trigger the duped items check?

(and by the way I'm not a Pkiller, the ears were from a friend who
died accidently from Nova triggered at shrine)
