Not random, it's obviously magic... Logic and reason can't explain everything, that is why we have magic!

Kind of like how my Forge lead Goblets order seems to produce gold goblets instead.

I see this most often with artifacts, I have them grab one item for the base and when its done the item either isn't the base or was replaced entirely.
