I was in a trade as Arabia, trading 5 resources for a rival city. After making the trade however my happiness imploded and it shows me having no access to any of the resources I traded.

I had:
6 pearls
2 ivory
1 fur
1 marble
2 spices

But when I went to trade them it seems to have given away all my units for each resource. Even my huge surplus of Pearls.

I tried selling different resources to other civs for money or luxuries and it works just fine.

This seems like a bug when trading for cities. Anyone else notice this?
 
I have found that if you ask "what will make this work" and then accept the offer, you will often end up trading ALL of a given resource instead of just one. I don't know whether this is intended or a bug, but it's not obvious from the UI that you're trading more than one. So if you use the ask function, make sure you cancel and then go back and add the same items manually.

It was very perplexing to trade for a luxury resource and find that my happiness had gone DOWN after the trade.
