I realize that I'll get some flaks for this. But instead of using
diablo trainer. Duplicate the items, that way if you can't connect
for any reason or someone steals your stuff, you have another backup
copy. A trick to make this a non-cheat is to alway eliminate, not sell,
the original item once the transfer is completed. Drop the item, then
start a new game.

Now, I don't recommend having your level 40 char go to hell/hell
find some awesome plate of something or some kick-ass weapon to 
transfer to your level 1 char. But if you're running two chars with
more or less the same level, I don't see why shouldn't you transfer
that shield of something from your rogue to your warrior, or a
bow in the other direction.
