Claimable Base Items

Before i21 went live the base items such as the Arachnos Flyer/Longbow Chaser and all the posters were re-claimable more than once for use in bases (it actually said this on the button).

Now it appears that they're only claimable once, which means if I need more than one set of posters I need to mess around and make another character to add more to my base?

Is this working as intended?

I haven't touch these items in a while (my base is kinda spartan now), but from what I remember, once you have claimed them you can put as many as you want in your base as long as you have the prestige to pay for them.

That is NOT correct.

The items go into the personal inventory of the individual toon.
Once the toon places the items in the base, they disappear from the inventory.
If the item is deleted or "sold", it does not return to the personal inventory (unlike the regular base items which have unlimited inventory), it is gone forever. This is one of the reasons they were made reclaimable.
