Recycling Depot? :D
Alright... Well, I'm sure we've all had this happen to us at some point in time:
You do a big shopping trip at hardcore pups, or perhaps the scenic route... And you realize that half the stuff you bought doesn't look good on your dogs.
Or suppose you found a strange thing in a random event and you really don't need it.
Now what?
You could TRY to sell it in your user shop... But who'd buy it? You know there are newbies out there who would use this stuff and love it... Not to mention that you're feeling generous and you wish you could give this stuff away...
And so this brings me to my idea of a recycling depot!
In your inventory, on the item's drop down list there could be the option of 'discard' or 'recycle'. When you select this and click 'go!' the item would end up at the recycling depot.
When you got to the recycling depot, you would see the icons of the items that people had thrown in, and if you clicked on them, if you were lucky, you could snatch the item up before someone else!
I know I'd be a regular contributor. :P
Support? :D

I don't know if I support. Someone can easily go in and snatch up every single item and then sell them in their user shop & if there were a limit, they'd still grab the items and sell them, putting newbies out of luck
They had something like this on neopets. <br /> <br /> Support!!

I agree, Blix. Though I don't think it should be every couple of hours... Maybe once every 30 minutes or so? :3

Support. :) It would be like the money tree on Neopets. I freakin love the money tree xD<br /> <br /> Except there should be a limit to how much you can grab like... 1 thing every few hours or what ever. So people have a chance to get something instead of just a few people grabbing everything that pops up

Ashley - No. Because if you wanted money for it, you could sell it. ^^<br /> <br /> I'm just talking from a donation perspective. :3

I support :) Ive seen a few other sites that incorporate this sort of thing and it works out nicely.<br /> <br /> If things stay in there for more than a day they could be deleted, then. Or, some time restraint, otherwise it might get flooded with things.

I think its an amazing idea... but would the buyer of the stuff(then recycled it) get any money? So its like you get some of the money back that you spend?
