     One suggestion, then. Prolly complex for nothing, but well.

     This way, old cauldron (if still there) is removed, and a new one is

     Maybe strange, but should work.

     What happens when the player leaves something on the square that

     Yes... in that design it would teleport that too. Perhaps a sign should 
be on the 'buy new cauldron' altar that say that it destroys everything 
on the square.
Another alternative would be to not have it destroy the old one at all: 
as those cauldrons are burnable, leave the player to manually burn the 
old one first (making sure to have a note to tell the player that he has 
to do that)
