Hi everyone,

Earlier today I decided to re-build my store, so I returned everything to my
inventory. But now there is lots of stuff missing including a slot machine that
cost me 2000L$.

Where is my stuff? and will I get it back?

Thanks.

The problem with auto-returning a large number of objects at the same time is that the system will often package them up, so what appears to be one prim is actually a collection of prims.

So, a returned item may be titled "chair" but if you rezz it you will find it's actually a prim holding a chair, a sofa, your hot tub, a few plants, and a building all together.

The only way to see if you've really lost inventory, is to rezz every... single...damn...prim... that was returned and look in the contents folder.

Good luck.

Yes, this is the "Coalesce " bug. I always take things into my inventory one at a time to avoid this...though for large stores, etc., I can see what a PITA that would be.

Don't despair. Use the filter.

Go to Inventory, Recent Items, then Create New Filter, Click on None to clear all the check boxes, then click on Objects to select just that one, at the bottom of the Filter box you will see hour and days thumbwheels, use these to find your stuff.
