Is this possible? I mean, I did pay a hefty sum of plat for it..
Also, the same with potions..
It would be amazing if they could make a potion transfer system, such as PL has implemented.
The problem specifically with potions is that there were exploits involved around when they were tradeable upon launch. Players were making new characters and running the initial content to quickly farm a lot of potions and trade them to their main, negating the need to buy them. For the good of the games economy and to remove that exploit potions were no longer allowed to be traded.
As for Pets, we run into issues with things like Achievement based pets being transferred between characters. Scams tied to selling the pet and not the egg, among other potential exploits.
The short answer is that it's done this way to preserve the integrity of the game and the economy within.
