I agree that as it stands now, this is a long term issue. Lowering NPC repair costs would help. It would help even more if there were more incentives (make it cheaper than the NPC, or add a temporary stat bonus to damage or defense for player repairs) for players repairing each others gear at 50. At least then gil would be changing hands between players, and not vanishing into the ether.
