• No-Loss Return: Expired items are automatically returned straight to the player's inventory when they log in.
• Configurable Limits: Admin controls for listing limits, price limits, and full layout/color customization via gui.yml.
• SQLite Database: Fast, localized persistence for tracking all active and expired listings safely.
