I think it's kinda stupid that you can't move certain Bonanza prizes across characters e.g. the Black Belt items. It would be easy to make these a "one time transfer" and I think this atleast should be done, even if only for a small duration such as the collection of rewards for the Bonanza time period.
Thumbs up please!

everyone can force a win on rank 4 if they want so making bb items sendable would make BB too easy, or more common, than SE wants it to be.

BB items... maybe, but the freakin's rank 5 statues? whats the point in making them unsendable?

I agree even if it's only across accounts. I am sitting on cat's eye because it was not listed in the untransferable goods and it being marked for r/ex as a currency is rather annoying

cat's eye falls under quest items so can't be sent.

The entire point in the bonanza is to give people a shot at getting items / gil they wouldn't normally be able to get. I just don't see why you can't do it.
Look at it like this, the more mules that enter the bonanza = the more gil available as a cash prize for the player as well as that extra £1 / $1 a month for SE, therefore it's a win-win situation for both SE and the playerbase for a change. Except by not being able to move certain items between characters, the playerbase gets shafted slightly.

It lets you skip some parts of difficult quests. For rank 4 quest items, like BB items, SE only wants you to have a 10% chance of being able to do that. For cat's eye, a .1% chance of being able to do that.
You did get your shot at getting items/gil you wouldn't normally be able to get.

Force a rank 4 win, how? Unless you're buying about 100 marbles and already have 10 mules in stock for 45 days + since that was one of the requirements to buy marbles in the first place. I doubt many have that many mules/will buy that many marbles.
I wish SE allowed us to transfer some more ex/rare items like BB items and such.

Yes, I had the same issue with the black belt items. Someone in my LS told me it wasn't in the list so i trusted their word, purchased it on my mule when I won rank 4, and it wouldn't let me transfer. At least SE should allow us to make a refund to switch prizes if we haven't used it yet, or allow these items to be traded between mules/main, or friggen update their list to display those items instead of giving us false hope if those items aren't already on the list.
I will also double check myself just in case my LS mate is wrong and missed it.

Stats can be traded, but not dboxed

I don't know about the BB items. It's still one of the sickest pieces to have. Lets look at Maat's Cap. That used to set you in a league apart. Now, thanks to Abyssea, I'm seeing Maat's Caps a LOT more...and on some people who have no business wearing it. I like the fact that the BB is still a b*tch to obtain. There's a sense of accomplishment still.
That being said, 0/3 BB items, rank 4 on 2 mules.... *shakes fist angrily at SE* =D

I know they can be traded, I just don't see the point of them not being deliverable

With the rank 4 you can dbox the Empyrean Seals after claiming them. That seems to be the best option right now. A free +1 piece of your choice.

The best option? No way.
Getting +1 seals is near enough a joke to anyone who has even an ounce of skill, you'd be better off getting something from Sea like a Justice Torque or Altruistic Cape, where the pop items can occasionally be a bitch to farm. Or even the Nocturnus Helm, as how often is that BCNM ever available anymore?
