The rest of the post was kind of more of the same, but what's up with this son? Who says that? Under what 'circumstances'?
People paid real money for gralat items. Cool.
1. Announce that after a certain date (give people plenty of time), potions will no longer be tradeable.
2. After this date, change the item names to 'antique ______ potion'
3. reset that day or close to it
4. post-reset, reintroduce normal potions that are buyable and tradeable. Old potions are still useable, just not tradeable.
There, now you can safely reset with potion preservation.
That being said, I think any major 'economic' restructuring would require a reset for optimal implementation. A lot of the methods people consider now just seem like pretty ways of punishing people for having more money than other people, or introducing useless items that nobody ends up buying anyway.
TK, those businesses you suggested aren't PKing. How could you?!
Edit: Of your four original ideas, They're all cool except the first one. If you impost a fee for trading, it's going to increase the amount of drop trade scamming for poor people looking to avoid those fees. If you make it so low that it's not noticeable, then you probably aren't doing much to the 'economy'
