Small QoL Suggestion: "Deposit Boxes"

[Maledict]

Port Jeuno is a zone which--though Adoulin has relieved that a little--is still central (and overloaded). Though I can't offer a "silver bullet" solution to get people to spread out, I have this idea to reduce foot traffic:

Place "Deposit Boxes" in the three nations, Aht Urhgan and Adoulin. You speak to Shami and he gives you a Key Item to allow you to use these boxes. Once you have it, you can trade Beastman/Kindred's Seals or Kindred's/High Kindred's/Sacred Kindred's Crests to said boxes and through some astral property they will immediately deposit the traded seals with Shami.

You'll still have to visit Shami/Shemo to manage your collected seals, but it should cut down on people having to constantly visit Port Jeuno after every outdoor hunting session when they have seals clogging up their inventory.

Bonus: to save on travel time elsewhere, other NPCs also could have their own Key Items to use with the Deposit Boxes for large amounts of recurring quest-related items. (Gallijaux/Joulet with Moat Carp, Paparoon with Alexandrite, the Eminence NPCs with Vouchers...)

Not a huge thing. It may not be quite as trivial to implement with quest NPCs, but I'm pretty sure it'd work with Shami, at least.

What do you think, sirs?

{Yes, please.} I would really like some way to store my seals/crests without having to travel to Jeuno every time. I know it's like a 2 second warp through the Homepoint but still, with several things like the AH and garden etc. accessible everywhere, I often don't NEED to go into this zone for any other reason than to free up inventory space.

I think the much larger issue with Port Jeuno is all the AFK people trying to sell from their Bazzar. In order to eliminate this, they need to make everything AH-able, and eliminate the taxes. The game has been around for 10 years, and I still can't figure out why some items can be sold, but not on the auction house. It makes no sense whatsoever. I don't think RMT is really a concern anymore these days, so that can't be used as an excuse.

Another factor in Port Jeuno is that the armor upgrade NPCs are there, as well as the Abyssea NPC's. It's just a very busy area, and I doubt Shemo/Shami are playing as big a part as you think.

But that being said, from a convenience point of view, I would like to be able to deposit seals without travelling there too. Maybe make it so you can send your seals through mog mail to them? lol
