That's the idea... (Destiny)
Don't know why I didn't think of this before, and perhaps others have, but here it is anyway.
If Xûr is selling a new version of an Exotic armor you own, it is cheaper to buy the new one than wait for him to carry it as an upgrade.
If he's selling the item, just buy the new version and shard your old item. Otherwise, if you don't want to wait for him to finally sell your item, you can pay a premium and upgrade yours now. There's a higher chance that you'll be able to upgrade instead of having the item available for purchase.
Another option is to buy the Exotic Engrams, as they cost motes (which you hardly ever use), and if you have three classes, you can't lose.
