I bought a EWE (or WEE, I honestly can't remember) bay sabino TB stallion yesterday for 30k. I changed his name to EWE something (I can't remember that either whoops) and listed him for sale at 150k. Then I gave him a rider and put him in my stallion barn and went to list him under my barn manager. When I did that, I got an error code, but figured it was just my internet being slow, so I decided to list him for the manager later.

Well, it's later, and he's... gone.

I didn't sell him. I didn't free range him, and I didn't misplace him, because I checked all my barns and then ran my stable number + stallions in the horse search and all the stallions that popped up are accounted for. The only thing I can think of is that the error code somehow erased him, but I don't know how computers work so that may or may not be a thing.

I'm not terribly concerned if this gets fixed for me, but I'd hate for somebody else to lose a nice horse the same way, and I am very curious about the whole thing.

Anyways, here's proof that I didn't sell or FR him:

Update: found him!

Definitely a bug

There seems to be some sort of glitch in the system where ebs go to the old owner if you try to resell a horse right after buying them. This happened a while back. It was my horse Columet bought, and I don't think it was ever resolved. https://horseeden.com/forums.php?f=49&t=46689

Mine is slightly different, it didn't get sold to me twice, just got sold to someone else. But that's so weird.

I bought this filly and the sale went through, it charged me the ebs, and has my sale ownership in her sales record. It says though that she belongs to someone else.

It looks like another person bought the filly at the same time as you perhaps? Sales history shows that it sold twice in one day from the same barn but to two different buyers. Very weird.
