The strange thing in your example though is you were actually able to drop multiple instances, which I haven't ever been able to do myself.
Normally if I try to do anything with the bin after it is 'copied' I get an inventory request error.
I would recommend that if something like this happens again, immediately transfer the contents of the bugged bin into another regular bin, then delete the bug bin.
