Buyback Feature

[Kroma]

If there is a buyback feature, how long would the option be available? If it's an extended period would people try to abuse it as storage? If the buyback option were available for longer than a day (IRL), after a predetermined amount of time the items should either lose quality status (i.e. +1, +2, etc.) or have the cost increase for the buyback the longer they remain with the vendor. I just see this as a way to keep a buyback system from being abused as extra storage.

Or as an alternative to the buyback, have it be like an in-game pawn shop. After a certain amount of time, if the items sold to the vendor haven't been repurchased by the seller, then they become a part of the vendor's inventory while quantities last.

Usually MMOs with buy back only last till you close the window. Any bigger queue then that would have a load of engineering problems, and even worse, open it up to dup hacks.

I believe some have something like 5 to 10 mins or till you zone, definitely if you log out. Anyone that puts stuff in a buyback feature to use it as storage..they have more guts than i or don't value their possesions very much .
