Once you've hit the level-cap for a season, Prime Engrams basically lose all of their value. Sure, you can hope for getting a God-Roll drop from one of them, but the whole purpose of Prime Engrams is that they're supposed to be useful for upping your Power-Level, and once you're at Max-Level, they just become a kind of an, "Oh, cool" feeling.
Why not give us an option to sell our collected Prime Engrams to The Spider?
From a Lore Perspective: Are we really supposed to believe that The Spider wouldn't have any interest in Guardian-Style Weapons of high-power? And the engram "Data-Compression" technology used to create them?
From a game-mechanics perspective: It gives us a use for our Prime Engrams after that point where they start to feel useless and pointless.
Give us an option to bring them to The Spider and trade them in for things: +50 Planetary Materials, +5 Enhancement Cores, +1 Ascendant Shard, +25,000 Glimmer, etc. We already have about 100 different kinds of currency in this game that we have to sort through just to manage a single upgrade to an armor piece.
At the very least, trading in Prime Engrams for a choice of different materials would be a nice way of making that grind a little more fruitful.

He'd send his goons after us when he decodes them into Edge transits.

I think that's a great idea, but the prices you said are super inflated, like a acendent shard for a prime? Great idea, I really like it though, it would be a great touch -
They did say that this season primes have a chance at dropping high stat roll armor. I'm not max level yet and I've gotten at least half a dozen 60+ rolls. Two around 67 or 68
-
I’m drowning in glimmer right now. I think a better trade would be 7 prime engrams for 3 pinnacle weapons or armor.
-
Enhancement prisms being traded for Prime engrams would be cool.
-
That would just be pay to win, and I'd rather earn my rewards through gameplay.
-
They give high stat loot though, got me a 64 total boots that I’m mess with now
-
I’ve posted a few times to let us trade in like 3-5 primes for 1 pinnacle. That would make them useful.
-
1 ascendant shard is a lot. They wouldn’t be rare anymore.
-
This is a really good idea. I'm always running out of resources and prime engrams are pretty useless to me even when leveling.
-
I think that would be really cool. They did make primes have better shot at good stat rolls but this would be another neat use!
