When they try the "have the druid wild shape into a horse and sell it for some quick cash only to change back under cover of darkness and flee" trick, have the buyer wait until the rest of the party is out of earshot and say "you poor thing! A fine beast like you and they've never had you shod! It's cruelty, is what it is! We're going right over to the farrier without delay!"

RAW that wouldn't do anything though.

What do you suppose is gonna happen to the nails when the druid switches back?

Your worn items just kind of morph into your body when you wildshape. You don't have to strip naked to go from humanoid to animal, for instance.

But does it work the other way around?

Yep. One (high level) druid trick is to move tons of loot by wildshaping into an elephant, loading up with giant saddlebags, then wildshaping into an eagle to fly to the destination. The loot is recovered by the druid wildshaping back into an elephant

Or more practically a druid's bear form might wear armour that is too heavy for their normal form to carry
