I think the key is common sense. I mean you know roughly what items are worth so you know roughly what you're character should be paying for an item, and finally you know the difference between doing this with one or two choice items and outfitting a character this way. We could say no, but its probably better to actually trust you guys to be responsible.

Every now and then I see an item that my character made being resold by another PC. Which means that another player has gotten the full use out of the item they purchased and either resold it to another merchant or is reselling it themselves. Sometimes it's funny how they'll end up in the possession of people that Aleis wouldn't give the time of day to ordinarily, and I only notice when I'm on an alt.
Market Circulation in a server like this is very interesting, but the rarity with which this happens is rather rare indeed either because characters stop being played after they reach a certain level, because they never actually replace the item, because they electrify the item to recharge another, or because they just toss it to an NPC vendor (which I have also seen happen).
When I think about it in these terms, the likelihood that I will ever legitimately see an item of Aleis's on an alt of mine without specifically trying to get it passed on is maybe once or twice in a blue moon and EVEN THEN it has never been the item that I am actually looking for on that character.
