In the following clip I find a protector case and as you can see the model is pristine/worn although the item is discovered as being "damaged" upon hovering. I went afk for about 5 mins and noticed upon return that the model visible in the vicinity tab had corrected itself, but as you can see it is quickly refreshed to it's bugged state by walking out of range and back in.
I have also observed this with the cooking pot, note that other items may be affected as well. Will update here upon discovery of any other items suffering from the same problem.
