Free Skin Usage In The Practice Tool

I think it would be a nice feature to have free playable skins of all the champions only in the practice tool. I think this would help the "try it before you buy it" aspect of knowing what to expect when you buy it since there is no refund on skins or at least up to my knowledge. I have a bunch of vanilla (skinless) champs and I would be curious to see the different effects or looks of the skins.

Having this feature may even boost sales for Riot! I know someone in the office has thought about this right? I don't see any potential problem of doing so.

These are just my thoughts what do you think?

There are refunds. However, you only get 3 per account. Refunds also only work within 90 days.
There is a thing called the internet. You should search on youtube for what skins look good.
Don't buy a skin on every champion you have. Seriously. Only buy skins that aren't ugly or give you a disadvantage on YOUR MAIN CHAMPIONS ONLY.
Riot has considered it, but it isn't worth the time and effort making an extra feature to add a mere 100-200 skin purchases per year. They have many other things that are much more important to do, such as rotating gamemodes, bugfixing, updating champions and creating new content.

PS: When I say skins that give you a disadvantage, I mean skins that make your key abilities much easier to see, for example iblitzcrank (It makes his Q glow), or chemtech tryndamere (It makes his ult really obvious to see compared to his other skins.
