I was on Yavin hunting, I went to heal my mantigrue and I was unable to access my pet stim Cs. When I tried, both times I get an e-mail message saying that I'm attempting to use an item no longer in use in the game and I should delete it from my inventory. Waiting to hear back from Customer service on this as I write.

Hmm very strange. Was this the first time you attempted to use those particular stims? Or had you been able to use them previously?
I was able to use C stims yesterday, but who knows what might have been "fixed" since then.

Yikes! Hopefully it's just a bug!
Interesting that using a "not in use" item would send you an email. That's a neat feature (if it weren't doing it with pet stims that is!)
Were the stats on the pet stim anything special that maybe was created via an exploit or something like that? That's the only reason I can think of why this might have happened although I would have thought in the case of an exploited item, they'd just be removed altogether from your inventory.

Tobbacco and I both purchased the same stims from a vendor on Naboo that we've used in the past. This was a new crate, but I don't think there's anything special about them. I'm standing in the shop on Naboo waiting to hear back from customer service. The same stims are for sale on the vendor.

I broke down and bought some more from the vendor and they work. Still no explanation from customer service as to what is wrong with the ones I already had. As I said, all these stims come from the same vendor on Naboo.

I seem to recall reading something about problems with pulling items from factory crates. I know for awhile there was also a problem with the reuse timer on people meds being messed up (fixed now I believe).
This definitely sounds like a bug so it'll be interesting to hear what the CSRs come up with. I would hope they'll offer to replace the non working pet stims with working ones.

There was a factory bug I read that bugged the last item made in a crate. I've also had situations that gave that same message. If you dropped the item in question in your home or a house you have admin and pick the item back up the item works properly.
This has happened off and on since launch. The same old bugs just keep showing up.

i think i can answer this. it appears that sometimes when you create multiple items in a factory and the factory makes more of the itemwith the schematic than the game thinks it should it sends out a message like the one you got. it happens with powerups and stims of all kinds and im sure it happens to other things. Me and my buddy have been able to reproduce it a few times. it doesnt seem to have anything to do with ingredients or anything like that. its just a bug. you should be able to use the item anyway. just delete the e-mail you got. it seems to be meaningless.
