Has any one else experienced trouble with the new equipment locker system? Twice now I have lost valuable items when I check 5, then 4 are I acquire, but the 5th is lost forever. I have lost cloissonne orbs and a prayer box that I worked hard for on a villain hunt. I don't know if it's a game bug or my computer. Help!!!!

How awful! I haven't experienced that myself, but ugh! I wonder if it's possible that someone else may be trying to check out those items at the same time as you, causing some kind of confusion in the game or something.

I am sorry this has happened to you. I have not had a chance to even use the locker much yet. I notice that both items you lost are accessory items. Perhaps it is a confusion on which hand to place the item in. I know that when you switch just one item at a time the equipment 'rotates' from one hand to the other. It could be a bug that when you try to take two items, it puts both in your (right) hand, and drops one.

Does this happen if you only take one hand held item?

Thanks for replying, Crunch and Arabella. Nobody else in the agency was logged on when this happened, so I know it wasn't that. And you might be right, Arabella, because that has never never happened when I take one at a time, which is the way I will have to do it from now on.

I take 5 at a time and didnt loose anything, so Im not sure this is the reason you lost hand items. Did you try to ask Ben about it?

Hi Reda.. Yes, I sent a bug report to Admin. Still waiting for a reply.

Seems as if the ghost is back. Just lost a $120,000 smart necklace while processing a crime scene.

It's happened twice to me and the weird thing is that a couple of other locker items doubled when I hit take selected items. I wound up with 26 items when the locker is only supposed to hold 24.

Well the locker ghost has got us also but thankfully not for an expensive item!
