No Sales using the Come and Get it Street Store table
Sims show up and look but mostly chat to my Sim or each other.
They roam the lot doing other things until the Yard Sale ends.

What I have done to fix/test.
Reset price mark-ups.
Changed items for sale.
Sold table and bought a new one.
Tried at home and several parks/community lots.

*Not tried at any Flea Market or Festival
Tried at different times of day.

Repaired (more than once) and shut down restarted PC.
Routinely delete cache and localthumbcache.package files.

All this was on a new save started Monday before the patch.
Zero Mods Zero CC
The Come and Get it Street Store table was working in another save last played about a week ago.
That save folder was moved before I started the current save.
All packs owned and patches are current.

[CL] No Sales Using Come and Get it Street Store Table

Looks like it! Exactly what I see, yep.

Glad to see it's not just me. I had a Sim make hundreds of thousands of simoleons selling camping mascot statues in San Myshuno using the street store table, then after the patch when she set up at a festival no one bought anything. (Not that she needed any more money at that point, but she was selling for old times' sake.) I'm on macOS 10.12.6 (Sierra), no mods or cc (ever), all packs except for Toddler Stuff.

Just coming to comment that I have also done several things to make sure my game and saves are clean before testing the Street Gallery and Come and Get It Street Store items. Repaired the game, reset the Sims 4 folder, except I did not add back any of my previous folders, I started the game as if it were as new as the day I bought it (which also means there's no CC). Tested both tables in a new game, and did not sell one single item. The sims are clearly trying to shop, but then it seems (to my experienced game play eye) that they are prevented from making a purchase, so they proceed to idle on the lot. After idling for a short time the sims will come back to the table and shop again, but the same thing happens again when they are prevented from making a purchase. It's a continuing cycle until the sale ends.

In my amateur speculation and previous experience with these tables, the game will send 1-3 sims to the lot and run a shop/purchase cycle, and then sends all those sims away, then the next batch of 1-3 sims will arrive, and another shop/purchase cycle runs. This continues steadily until the end of the sale - unless the cycle doesn't complete, in which case the group of sims holding up the show stay on the lot until the sale ends. Unfortunately when this happens, no new sims arrive and you end up not selling much. (this happens in about 1 out of 3 sales, so it could be one of those intended random chances of it being a good sale, vs. it being a dud, I don't know). With this bug however, since the shop/purchase cycle doesn't complete, the first group of sims to arrive never leave until the sale is over, so no new sims arrive, and no sales are made. At least, that's how they behaved in my game.

I hope this information is useful for someone to pinpoint what needs fixing, it truly does seem like the sims are shopping, but just can't complete the purchase. I blame the tweaking done with Retail shopping, it seems like every time the retail engine gets tweaked, it breaks the yard sale engine, and vice versa. Can't the two just get along? :D

Same happens in my game.

I am having this same issue with no custom content installed in a fresh save.

I have also had the same problem with the Street Gallery in three different saves since this week's (Nov 7) patch.  I have not yet tried it in a new save as I thought I'd check to see if it had been reported first.  I currently have no mods or cc (I had MCC but removed it before applying the Nov 7 patch and have not added it back).  I have cleared cache (do it almost every time before I open the game) and repaired my game after both patches and after installing Cats and Dogs (so three repairs).  I have only tried at 200% and 300% mark up, and haven't gotten around to trying the table since I wasn't having any luck with the gallery.  I'm on Windows 10 and have all the packs. Also, I tend to do Street Sales as opposed to Yard Sales. I've held them in different locations (outside the Art Gallery in San Myshuno, by the museum in Willow Creek and outside two residential lots in Willow Creek and Newcrest).  Sims come and interact, but no one has bought anything since the patch. 

Thanks and regards,
