You could add a "WTB" feature.
People with mall stands can specify things they're looking to buy, put money down on it, and if someone happens to walk into their stand with the item they're looking for, they can sell it to the stand owner.

Another feature that's been added to a lot of MMOs :P

As an example:
If I want to buy a DR, and I'm willing to pay 300k for it, I'd set one of my slots as "Buying" (or extra slots for buying; however you implement it) a DR for 300k, and it takes 300k from you until you cancel it, or buy the DR.

It would be a convenient way to buy stuff without having to check other people's stands, massing, or while offline.

You could disable dropping, trading, or lending of items that are in your mall stand.

That's not bad, I like it.

Ha, no. I'm not even going to consider that due to one reason. Other scripters; remember the rental auction? It's broken because other scripters (don't know who) changed something and ended up breaking it.
