Speaking as the developer who built the closet backend... This is working as intended. We want you to always be able to reequip avatars in your closet. After all, that's why you saved them! And in order to ensure that, we make sure you can't sell or trade away items that you have equipped to ANY avatar, whether current, saved, or being edited.

This hasn't been a problem too terribly many times. However, it would definitely be an improvement if it could tell you WHERE they're equipped, to make it easier to track down, and it might be worth making an option to force-remove those items from within the trade UI.

It might ALSO be a good idea for us to provide some sort of avatar export that gives back a picture and a list of the items in it. You'd be responsible for storing that information somewhere on your own, but if the main reason you didn't want to remove a saved avatar was that it was too pretty to get rid of, this might be good enough. (It would also be convenient for avatar contests!)
