Suggestion: Trade-in old GC gear for seals back

Also, idk about you guys but I like to collect gear.

Nothing wrong with that but I don't care to keep gear I wont ever equp again and right now the only option is to discard it...

You are going to say that with any gear you get. I'm sorry, I can get 2k+ seals in an hours time. Seals are not hard to get, if you are having invintory problems, you should manage it better. Also if they implemented level sync or level cap on things, you will need it.

It's called a choice, do I get this piece of gear wasting measly 1-2k seals, or wait for a few levels for something better, and save up my seals.

Okay, so I got a Gridanian Square Shield for my mage classes/jobs because it's a very nice little shield...and it still is. (Meaning I am not about to part with it anytime soon) But I do expect someday, it really won't be a good shield for me anymore. Why shouldn't I want to have some way to turn it in that seems more valuable than just throwing it in the street and/or letting it rot in my inventory?

I don't think it's unreasonable to ask that SE looks into a way for us to do something with GC gears once we no longer need them. It doesn't need to be that we get some seals back for turning them in, but there's gotta be a way to let players do something with these items when we've outgrown them other than tossing them in the street. Materia, Seals, Trade for shards/crystals/donate to hamlet defense...something.

Lastly, how exactly are you getting your 2K+ seals in an hour? Turning in provisions? ... or farming NM's or Toto-rak for drops? Because if you are farming NM's/Toto-rak for 'gears that you no longer need' only to turn them in for seals, IT IS THE SAME THING.
