The solution, it seems, is to buy something first. Then you can sell the 
more valuable stuff. Which makes it seem like they're banking with me, 
not the other way around... (It also provably cannot result in you 
ending up with more coin than you started with.)

Woo! Found the blacksmith shop. Now I can sell all the weird weapons I 
keep finding for a reasonable price...

Since I only buy armour that's better than what I currently have, I now 
have a really weird mixture of armour from multiple different races. My 
character looks strange. ;-)
