I forget how it plays out in a solo game vs the AI.

In a simultaneous game, it takes three turns:
1) The offer
2) The acceptance
3) Execution of the trade.

Assuming enough time has elapsed, you may want to check that each of the above was performed correctly.

For example, the offer may have been made for the wrong planet (unlikely as it sounds).

Or it was never accepted.

Nah, the AI player congratulated me on a good trade and took what I offered. Still, didn't get the planet he was supposed to give me. Could it have something to do with the fact I already owned some planets in that system? (I wanted to clear the AI out of the system entirely to get my borders properly sealed.)

Yea... I think that clean the AI ouf of your systems is the best way to deal with those cheaters!
Really weird. Have you sent the file to MM? (Think you have not the savegame, right? Because the best way to fix the problem, would have been reload the game!!!).

I was having the same problem in my simultaneous game under se4 Version 1.78. I patched the game to Version 1.84 and continued playing the saved game. Now the AI (in this case a "human" player set to use all it's ministers -- this is a "team" battle of human (me and my allies) verses the computer team) has accepted a trade of specific planets for one planet of theirs. When they accepted the trade, my offered planets were now under their control, and his planet went to my control.
