There are a lot of clothing items scattered on the roads all over, dropped by players, who don't want/need them anymore. They were once bought and paid for so they have actual value.
I myself as a new player alwas check them out, to see if I find anything that fits my character. After all - free clothes.
What if there was a place you could take those dropped clothes, furniture, bags and other items like a thrift shop where you would receive a small amount of money in return?
Maybe even let others buy those clothes for less than regular (since there's a limited amout and a poor choice)?
If possible, the government could even take a cut from that. It would add an opportunity for making money legally.
It would help new players earn (small but still helpful) money legally and buy cheaper clothes and other items.
