Mobs don't have personalities or real intelligence, so they can't lie to you in any way shape or form... but they can mislead you because of coding shortcomings or impossibilities. Really, you shouldn't be so bothered by this that you have to post a log here about it... The 'bug' command is there for a reason.

Anyway... What I'm *guessing* is the case is that something was given to the shopkeeper mob, invis or not, that it can't sell (certain coding things here... Some mobs are set up to only sell a certain item type, or certain set of items)... Therefore, "1." to the mob is that "forbidden" item, which it won't give you.
