Expected: In classic, you could give any item or piece of equipment to an NPC and they would take it from you.

If you gave them a piece of equipment that they could use, they would immediately equip it. As a result, you'd see the Priest of Discord and various NPCs wearing bronze armor, wielding unwanted weapons, etc.

Any item that you gave an NPC was gone forever. Handing the wrong NPC a quest item meant you'd never see it again.
This often resulted in a /petition, and a customer service request. Which used time and resources. Often items were not given back, but sometimes they were. Especially if they were rare epic related items.

You can pretend you did this, by randomly destroying an item in your inventory once a week. If you really need to get that part of the "classic" feel again.
