Warning on consignment store and Ice sculptures

I sculpted a couple of townies in ice and took the sculptures to the consignment store to sell .
It was only when the message popped up they had been sold that i realised the value was $0 (zero zilch nothing )
Not worrying too much i saved and exited the game to go get some food.
When i returned to play i was unable to acces the buy tab at the stores till, UNTIL i had retrieved all consignment items already up for sale.
Upon later sculpting another statue and going to add it to my family inventory to take to the store i found 2 items worth nothing with NO picture or name in there .
The only option to remove them was to use the sell all tab which NOW caused the problem as it causes the game to lock up and stop responding and i had to shut down my comp using the panic button on the front to get it to close as nothing else works .
So now i had 2 nameless/pictureless icons in the family inventory and no way to use the sell all option there .
It was a further three real days playing before the 2 icons disappeared despite trying various things like switching families and moving them out and back in
So i thought i would warn others of this .
Seemingly selling ice sculptures of your own family does not do this just ice sculptures of townie sims

Don't play tag-check.
Don't consign ice sculptures of townies-check.
Don't...?
But DO NOT salvage statutes at the junkyard - those too will end up in your personal inventory and you can not get rid of them.
Oh yeah, don't salvage a hole you've drilled at the junkyard - it goes into the family inventory and stays there...forever and ever. Altho if you are like me, you just laugh when you see it.
As for me, well, I cannot consign anything. I wonder if it's because no Sims but my family ever visit the store.
I've NEVER been able to consign anything. This is a bug that needs to be fixed with a patch.
Did you try putting down a new register? Or demolishing the building and putting a new one down?
He is a lvl 7 ghostbuster so not sure if somehow that has affected it.
In the other hood the female adult sim cannot get a makeover at the salon .
In both cases i have tried removing and replacing the lots with no joy
I've had the grocery store issue before and now one of my sims is unable to fish.Go figure.Different sim family but oddly enough it only happened in Sunset Valley.
