You should not store a persistent attribute that is an acquisition wrapper 
itself. (What is that... see the corresponing chapter in the Zope 
Developers Guide).
You are developing your own Product, I presume? Perhaps, you are keeping a 
direct reference to another persistent object? You should store its id 
instead, o use a container like ObjectManager.
Without more information that's all I can guess...
