Some heirlooms showed as duplicated while I was sure they shouldnt be. I accidentally sold one (for Pumpkin love story) and then the story disappeared from the “all stories” list. How can I even sell an heirloom that is not a real duplicate and how can I get my story back?

Multiple heirlooms showed as duplicate, while I was pretty sure I did not get them twice. I accidentally clicked “sell one” for the Pumpkin Spice story. However, the story then disappeared from the ”all stories” and I cannot find the heirloom in storage either.
How can my story come back? Not sure how I can have sold an heirloom that was not actually a duplicate.

The best thing at this time is to contact an EA game advisor about this issue.

I was placing all my heirlooms in storage to be able to sell duplicates for tickets as I had no need for them but after selling one of each of the duplicates, the heirlooms disappeared from my storage and when i got to my heirloom collection the same heirlooms are still lit up like as if I still have them but when I click on info it comes up with a locked sign. What happened to my heirlooms and why have they gone when I just sold the duplicates. I tried selling the ones I only have one of and the game does not allow me to do so as the action is blocked and says I need a duplicate to sell so why have my other heirloom disappeared after I only sold the duplicates? Please help me as I have contacted EA directly on the love chat and email and they will not help me. They say they can’t validate my heirlooms on their side this is very unfair and strange I don’t know what to do. PLEASE HELP

Hi, I was shocked it was on sale with price button as it was not if you have the Heirloom. So I checked my Surgeon Heirloom, no charm, but it's already Maxed. I have the Career reward.
Here I show you the pic;
* the Surgeon Heirloom Charm is sold as I remember. I remember selling that when the Heirloom in the inventory. But, I don't expect the charm is gone as it says doubled. I think selling 1 is good. But all sold. The selling is back to 2 months ago if not wrong.

I also have this issue and contacted Help about it today because I have 65 unlocked Heirlooms in my total Heirloom list, and only 22 physical statues in Storage. I often sell extra heirlooms, and I think this is a bug that shows more than one heirloom when in fact, there is only one. Once you sell, thinking it's an extra, you lose the only one you had. I just lost all the relationship Heirlooms from the Back to School event in June, and can't play any of those stories even though I have 3 active Sims who have them completed. I have other stories and traits that are also no longer available to play.

Here are links to previously reported issues regarding heirlooms and stories. Are any of them similar to the problem you experience? If yes, which?

@lmnmst I don't believe an EA advisor can help as @Keelee717 says.
Hopefully this issue will be fixed so you all can unlock again stories that should be available on your games.
