The Cornerstone of the World allows for Single player transfer of items for Hellfire characters, but again would not help you with Diablo characters.
In Multi, you can of course ask a friend to hold it for you while you get the appropriate character to transfer it to.
The only other non-trainer option you have would be to enter a public game, drop it there, go get your other character, and then to this same public game to pick it up.
This, however, is risky on a number of levels. First of all, the person(s) in the original game may choose to pick it up. You can reduce the chance of this occuring by dropping your item behind a building so that it won't show up unless you run your cursor over it. Out of sight, out of mind . . .
But if four people enter the game, then you'll not be able to enter it again yourself until one of them leaves. In that case, it's best to use the chat option to see how many characters are already in the game -- more than two, don't drop your item in that game.
And of course the game creator can always leave while you are gone, meaning the game -- and your item -- no longer exist. Option? Watch the games you are allowed to join -- if one game stays up for a particularly long time, the person in it is probably on a Laz run or shrine hunt, or maybe even taking a break to eat. It's a risk, but the chance is probably good.
It's really just best to try to find someone you can trust and ask them to hold a game and your item(s). Your next question, then, is "How do I find someone I can trust?"
Ah, THERE'S the rub!
Lurk this forum and several other sites and you'll see that there are channels that have plenty of legit players in them that would be willing to help you out. Another warning, however! Some of these players SERIOUSLY DISLIKE cheating to the extent that, should you ask them to help you and hold on to your Godly Plate of the Whale or your Dreamflange Hat while you bring in the other character, they might choose to "help" you by selling said items and give you the money, advising you to improve your melee/ranged attack/spell casting skills. This is a greater help in the long run, but not quite the help you were seeking, no?
Make your choices and take your chances.
