"you need to drop a container or vender first to create a valid lot."  I tried everything I can think of and it won't let me put any of my stuff up for sale.  I have been away from the  game for about a year so I am a noob with the new selling sytem and I can't figure it out.

Put a cointainer there (Backpack, strongbox or salesman crate) and et voila! You cna now sell stuff. The amont of boxes you can have there depends on your appartment.
