"What happened to my shoulders?" Says the Scribe

Ok, so this morning I logged in for the first time since 5.4 hit on one of my alts because I needed to get some new shoulders enchanted. My alt is an 83 Drani DK, max level Inscription and Jeweler.
Started to get ready to make
Greater Tiger Fang Inscription
for my main and noticed that the numbers weren't right on the stats for it. Thinking that I had inadvertently picked
Tiger Fang Inscription
to make instead, I refocused my eyes and noticed that there was something wrong with that one too!
The stats on all the new 5.0 shoulder enchants were about a quarter as much as they were supposed to be. For example, the stats for were:
"...adds 50 Strength and 25 critical strike to a shoulder slot item."
I didn't have time to deeply look into the issue, did I miss something? Has something changed that I missed or was this a temporary glitch?
Thanks for the help!

All enchants, including "item enhancements" created by other professions, even gems, now scale downwards if you (as in the character looking at the item enhancement or enchanted item) are below their "default" level - which is level 90 for MoP stuff.
However, you should notice a steep increase, if not the full effect immediately (not quite sure) on characters level 86 and above.
Don't worry about the Inscriptions you created, though, they will display and perform their full effect for level 90 characters.

Great, thank you for the information. I was hoping that was the case, but it was a bit early in the morning and I hadn't had my coffee yet... then got that surprise.
Thanks again!

OK, so here is the quick skinny on the ...*cough* scribe issue.
My level 83 scribe mailed the shoulder enhancements to my level 90 and the stats changed to the appropriate stats for that character.
It just looked weird, before I mailed it and it caught me off guard. And it was early... and I hadn't had my coffee yet.
Thanks all for your time.

Yeah it caught me off-guard on my 85 enchanter mage, too, even though I was aware of the scaling :D

Question: will Bind on Pick Up Shoulder Inscriptions turn into BoA inscriptions and scale to level if added to a shoulder heirloom item and then sent to an alt? or will i simply lose the enchant?
