Not sure if this has been discussed or if this is already planned for the game but I think a store like in WOW was something lacking in DII. I believe this is a primary reason to mule all of the stuff you get because it's so difficult to trade online without a common currency. This would also make money worth something other than gambling. One other thing, lets have some money denominations. I don't want to have to buy a Shako for $111111000000. *sigh*
It sounds like a solid idea, but you need to read what you wrote, think about it... and then re-write it all so it explains the idea a little more thoroughly.
Example, how would you work out money denominations when the game drops gold in different and odd amounts?

Have you played WOW? There are plats, gold, silver and copper if I recall. That is what I mean. Instead of 10000 copper which it seems like we get in DII, that would convert to 10 plats.
As for the rest, I was just trying to float the idea of a store. I'm sure there are issues but I think it can work. Maybe there is a server dedicated to a store? Thus, you don't enter a game but can just go to the store? This would give us all a place to exchange our wears and Blizzard gets their way when we don't need to mule everything!
Sadly, I have played WoW... far too much WoW.
in WoW it just keeps a running total of your total amount of in game income. There aren't denominations, just a running total. Diablo and Diablo 2 was quite similar. Just a running total of the gold you've gathered whilst playing. They just cut out copper and silver.
As for an online store, it has been discussed to death in many threads. The only system that could be seen put in to place is either a global stash for characters OR a guild stash. I would love to see either. More so a guild stash, where you could set permissions. And if bags are implemented, permissions to certain bags.
