It's silly because if you can buy the items (and keep in mind that they are legacy bound not character bound) you have already done the work to get the item (I am talking about armor, not the weapons here). You should be able to send them to your alts. As stated above, the items are not any better then any other orange gear. The difference is, you would already have put in the work to obtain them for you and your alts. Having a level limit IS SILLY.
