No one here suggested you would sell any part of your build.  That being said, we're not transplanting builds because–not only would it be time-costly–it is easily abused.  If we let 1 person bring a build over, who's to say they won't load up their chests with as much stuff as possible and gain an even bigger advantage over players.  I mean, balances would be wiped, so it would make sense to go out and buy as many valuable resources as possible and load up a build.  Essentially, a build would become a treasure chest, which we cannot allow. 

Even without that abuse-potential, if we let one person take a build over then we must allow all to take a build over.  If you cannot see that, then you're being willfully ignorant.

In any case, Option 1 or Option 2, you would not be losing your build anyway; it would just be in a different state.  I do not see what you're complaining so much about.  If this is just about your build, then why worry where it's at unless there's another reason behind it.
