Accept the quest from Renal Bloodscalp (Docks
District, thief guildhouse), and you will find it
eventually.

Ahhh, thanks never went through that series of things.

Is it be bought from someone?

No, the main purpose of accepting the quest from Renal
(in your case) is to get access to Mae'Var's Guildhall,
which is also in the docks. Once inside, go to the 2nd
floor and carefully investigate the room. What you're
looking for is in the north wall. The buckler doesn't look
like a magic item: it doesn't have the bluish tint that most
magic items have when they are not identified yet.

That's because, for some reason, it's counted as "already identified".

The bluish tint isn't for magic items: it's for *unidentified* items.

The reason I asked, the standard bag of holding bug, if you give yourself a bag,
then every one gets the same contents in the bag, ie. all bags have the same
contents between all characters bags. So i picked a different bag number,
thinking I would put thengs I want/need to keep in one bag(pieces of weapons,
etc), and things to pick and sell in another, (standard loot), so I wouldn't
have to keep scrolling dcown and sorting through all the stuff. Well it turns
out the other bag, I picked at random, had contents in it already, on item was a
buckler+1, so I thought to myself, maybe the storekeeps contents are stored in
the game in a 'bag of holding', and I had some stroekeeps inventory that I was
looking at, haven't really used anything in it yet, sold a few arrows and minor
junk out of it, and the resto of the stuff was things I didn't use, ie. leather
armor, and stock +1/+2 weapons, so I was trying to figure whose 'inventory' I
had, and to be fair to the game, would go buy it from them.

I know that and I should be more careful with my words.
It's just that all magic items in the game you find are
unidentified items, unless you're already familiar with it,
like the Sword of Chaos. So when you see a buckler for
the first time without the bluish tint, you don't expect the
buckler to be enchanted. It is easily discarded as a worthless
simple buckler, although it is the only buckler+1 in the
whole unmodded game .
