Break it, smash it, whatever, I like to have the PCs buy new equipment and/or be without something in the middle of an adventure. It really makes them think about how much they have and how much they take with them.
If a player rolls a 1 I ask for a reroll and if they roll a 7 or less with regular equipment, it is broken. Magic items don't break unless they roll two 1's in a row, i'm not that mean. Players may not like it too much, but once they have it happen a few times they know that they will have to help each other out by supplying equipment to each other when the rolls go bad. Not only that, if they load up on stuff I start to keep track of encumberance.... muhahahaa.
