Can't Sell at Market or Dumpster Dive

I managed to set up a market in town for my maker Sim. But every time I try to click on a table, it doesn't allow it because NPC Sims have already claimed it even when they just arrived and aren't even near the tables.

I also have to the problem with the Dumpster. I click on to use it and it says it's already in use and an NPC then comes along and dives in. On the rare event (one time) when there is no one who takes the Dumpster, it's empty.

How the heck is this supposed to work?

Thanks.

  • I also decided to try it out so I put a City Living table and the Eco Lifestyle table on a park lot, and I still can't add anything to either table inventory. They are not claimed.
  • I just tested the eco sales table. Sim brought his own table.

    First tried it at a retail store lot, that is designed as a market place. But although some customers stopped to look at the goods, not a single sale during that session (4 hrs?).

    Next I tried a huge park. Lots of ppl and some stopping, but not a single sale.

    Finally my sim traveled to San Myshuno, placed the table in front of the Karaoke bar in Spice Market. Sold all during the session! Customers attended constantly. There was a festival ongoing across the street, but seems like customers spawned for the sales table.

    So, even the eco table seems to function better in San Myshuno than in Oasis Springs and Willow Creek. Assuming the Marketplace lot will have the same good flow of customers.

    I found a solution. You have to carry your own sale table. Place it in the market and then you would be able to transfer your goods to the table, otherwise you cannot sell produce.


    I did and someone stole my table before I could put my stuff on it.


    Then shift click on the sim who used the table => "reset sim", then "clear table" and quickly use the table.


    Thanks. I'll try that.
