How do you sell Plumbots?

So I've got my sim already hard at work making nanites and trait chips and as a self-employed bot maker, it says he can earn career progress by selling plumbots. Well he made one but it became part of the family and there was no option to sell. Does anyone know how to sell the plumbots you make?

    Thanks for that clarification @KevinL5275!

    As mentioned, this thread is quite old and is being locked to avoid further necroposting, thanks all.
  • I think you go to the bot store and click on a pedestal thing next to a plumbot on display. I'm not sure as I don't have the game but I saw the option in iPokeZeke's let's play.

    You must go to Plumbot store. :)
  • So once you go to the Plumbot store then what? Aren't I suppose to create a plumbot then sell it? How do I do that without the plumbot becoming part of my family?
  • Has anyone successfully sold a plumbot yet and if so please let me know how. Everytime I go to make one it ends up part of my family. :x
  • Aaah thank you so much! I'm honored that a SimGuru would even respond! I feel so special haha! Apparently that's what I was doing wrong. I was clicking on the register guy instead of the bots on display hehe! Thank you so much for responding! *bows down to your awesomeness* haha! :P
  • I tried this & the first time I was able to sell it but now it only allows me to inspect the bot. How do I get the sell option?

    The first time I did it it worked, but now it only lets me inspect the bot & I can’t get the sell option. The bot in question is present. Any idea what’s going on?

    @Persefeny You must take another sim with you. That sim actually does the selling. A plumbot cannot sell itself.

    Hope that helps. This thread will get locked now because its old.
