[Idea] A good way to fight abusers!

I like to check Auction House sellers's character sheet.
Lately I noticed a growing amount of level 4 characters, which are selling Perfects and Rank 10s, obviously it doesn't smell right.
I thought, why there is no level cap (50 maybe) for selling Epic gear on the Auction House? (especially rank 7+/lesser+ enchantments)
As I see it, it will make the abusers life much harder > in order to make 'selling mules' they will have to level a character, which takes atleast a day or two.
Or use their real character and then lose it when they get banned.
I may be wrong, but I see no reason for a level 4 to sell Epic gear and a normal player should not feel the limitation.

Yep. Just around the lines of what I was going to say.
My guess is that you sell stuff with your main, like 99% of the players.
This will only affect people that have a strong reason not to sell items with their main, like getting banned.
I used to play this mmo from blizzard, and the last year of playing it, playing the AH was one of the things that kept me very busy, i had 3-4 lvl 1 bank alts that would handle all my selling.
You are thinking as a regular player that sells a few items/week, there are plenty of players who enjoy playing the economy of an mmo, which takes lots of bag space to bulk buy/sell, this takes inventory slots that no main character could ever be able to miss.
Would you like to run around with 15-20 bag slots filled with items you bough to sell a week or a month later?
Not to mention that the ah selling slots per char are limited as well.
You need to try and get out of your narrow view of field that "legit" players would never sell allot on the ah, not everything that deviates from your way of playing is abuse of the game.
Are people abusing low-lvl characters to engage in illegal activities? I don't know, they just might, but by setting a limitation in place you'll hit more legit players than abusers.
And so on.
Though I personally know a guy who plays the Neverwinter AH but will sometimes absent himself for weeks at a time, so I guess not having to log in every day might be a factor for at least some players.
