Is there any chance some sort of town clothing locker/collectibles tab or other type of management system will be put in place so that town clothing and other gem store purchases do not take up bank space?

I’m not here to demand a solution or make suggestions as to what that solution should be. I’m posting because today’s release of the animal hats led me to the unfortunate realization that while I want to keep purchasing outfits for my characters, I am no longer willing to buy town clothing because I have run out of bank space to store my gem store purchases.

Even if most people do not face this problem right now, I have to imagine that in the long term, anyone who makes gem store purchases is going to run into this wall due to the limit on the number of bank slots an account can have.

They need the costume maker like in Guild Wars 1.

Costume maker
Costume makers are special NPCs that create costumes for your characters. Once you have purchased a costume from the Guild Wars In-Game Store or the NCsoft Store, speak to a Costume Maker to receive your costumes. Once you have purchased a costume, any character on your account can wear it. Each character just needs to speak to the Costume Maker to receive a costume.

You speak to him each time you get a new costume and he stores your costume for you. You speak to him again and select from the list of stored costumes to receive a free costume to wear. When you get tired of wearing it, you delete it. All your characters have access to all the costumes and all can wear them at the same time. No storage in bank, free easy access.

I am running out of space anyway even though I haven’t bought any of the town clothes. I haven’t bought any because I knew this was going to be a problem and because moving them from character to character would be a hassle. I do not pay to be inconvenienced!

All they would need to do is place a new tab on the bank inventory UI named wardrobe and allow you to add town clothing pieces to it like the PvP locker and material collection. I’d buy more gem store clothing if this was the case.

Actually, you have access to (unlimited?) amount of storage space.

Character slots have no limit(iirc someone on forums mentioned having 40+ character slots and I’m myself running 25) and every backmule can provide up to 160 slots of inventory space (yeah, bit expensive to buy those backbag slot upgrades).

Cheap alternative is 100 slots space by using fractal equipment boxes – or 80 slots by using 15 slot bags.

I’ve pretty much all my costumes on Wardrobe character. ^^

OooOOoohh, box of shinies. So many shinies!

While this is certainly possible, it’s a very inelegant solution to a real problem that Arenanet is going to start facing. Like the OP, I cannot buy any more town clothing because I have no where to put it. I would like to buy one of the new animal hats, but I just can’t justify losing another bank slot. Going to the trouble of creating mule characters does not appeal to me whatsoever. I will just greatly curtail my purchases until a real solution is implemented. Ideally Arenanet would make the gem store clothing purchases unlocks like the Hall of Monuments items so I would never have to worry about losing or deleting the items I purchased. This would encourage me to buy a lot more from the gem store actually. Alternatively, a solution like a new collectibles tab or PvP locker would be fine. But I’m sure other players are starting to reach the limit of what they can hold as well, so this is just going to start losing Arenanet money if they don’t act soon.

so you pay €10,- for some space, that’s quite expensive for a bit of digital space.
i rather have what Astral Projections already said, the GW1 way.
