*5 Days at the shop: Selling price = 100%
 
An object that isn't sold by the end of day 5 is returned<ref>Many players are experiencing a bug where the items are never returned and the consignments have to be cancelled manually after 5 days.</ref>. Selling the same object frequently will decrease the price and the shop clerk will inform you that customers are getting bored. As a Sim's reputation increases, the percentage that the store will take for having to stock the items decreases;

Line 47:
'''Landgraab Sell n' Swap''' is automatically placed in the lot bin after a player installs ''The Sims 3: Ambitions''. It is probably named after the [[Landgraab family|Landgraabs]]. In Sunset Valley, the game usually places the consingment store where the Plumpuddle Park is intended to be placed.

==Known Bugs==
There have been several bugs that have been reported concerning the consignment shop.
 
===- Dealer will not allow you to buy or sell items ===
Sometimes when the player tries to use the "buy" fuction on the consignment shop, the shop menu will not appear. This is caused by consigned items being in the consignment shop for negative days. How this happens is unknown, but thankfully the workaround for it is simple.
 
Should this happen to you, simply use the cancel consignment option and unconsign any items that have been consigned to the shop. The buy function should work again.
 
 
===- Consigned are not returned after 5 days===
In theory, when an item consigned to the shop remains there for 5 days, it is sent back to the sim's home via the mail. For some players however, it does not do this, and the consigned items are left in limbo indefinately. If this is happens to you, your sim must travel to the consignment shop and cancel the Consignments manually. You can then reconsign the items, but be warned, this may lead to the below bug.
 
 
===- Reconsigned Items in Limbo===
Sometimes, reconsigning a cancelled consignment (usually in conjunction with workarounds for the two above bugs) will cause not only the items in question, but also any new consignment to act as if they had been consigned for 5+ days.
 
If this happens, your only recourse is to cancel the consignments on '''''everything''''', and then sell the items through the inventory, thus deleting them from the game's memory.
