I agree with the original poster; when you're in the minors the store should stock only items appropriate to your level (BBay probably shouldn't, change, though).

I look at it this way: each team is in a different city, which means as you move up and around, really, you're going to different stores all the time. In a market economy, why is a baseball store in an A-ball town going to stock Hall of Fame-caliber equipment when the store owner knows full well there's no player in that town who can afford and/or use such equipment.

Along the same lines, more variety in the equipment images would be nice. The stat variance is good, but I'm already getting sick of the same handful of bat pictures all the time.
