I like systems that say that your character can just start with this list of sensible items, or you can spend x monies if you like boring pretend shopping.
I can certainly see the appeal of that. Honestly, the ideal setup for a "kit" would be to have a basic description and simple effect (a skill bonus, for example), then have some way to see everything in it for those who want that level of detail. For something electronic, a button to expand the entry or link to a list of everything included could work; for a physical book, perhaps an appendix or similar that lists all the kits and their contents.
