Don't have an arm to test this but I assume you tested this without mods installed ?
Could you please enter your game version ?

What is your current game version number? 1.63.136.1010
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All of them
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Go to your sim's retail shop, put items from their inventory into the shop, and set them for sale. Then return the sim home.
What happens when the bug occurs? I have just left some items (books written by the sim's mother) from my sim's inventory in their retail shop and set them for sale - the same way I always have. Then my sim returns home and a note pops up saying "The following items were returned to either your sims inventory or the household inventory after being left on another lot." Then it lists the 5 books that I just put for sale in the retail shop.
What do you expect to see? The items should stay in the retail shop and be for sale - not return to my sim once he gets home.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.

I have just left some items (books written by the sim's mother) from my sim's inventory in their retail shop and set them for sale - the same way I always have for many of my sims with retail shops. Then my sim returns home and a note pops up saying "The following items were returned to either your sims inventory or the household inventory after being left on another lot." Then it lists the 5 books that I just put for sale in the retail shop. This is frustrating - I need those books to stay at the shop!

This is super frustrating since I can't run a bookstore, all the books I put up for sale just keep returning to the inventory over and over again.
