IMHO, I think players should be discouraged from selling their
items, but an outright ban is too harsh. What I would do if put
into this situation is make "donation" items remember who bought
them. When anyone who is not the original owner uses them, they
incur penalties.
The penalty may be decreased stats, or it may incur non-repairable
damage when used by anyone who is not it's owner.
It's like buying anything used... it's not likely to be as good as it
was new. This allows the players to dispose of their items as they
will, but protects the business investment.
