Rank Should decrease the cost of Riot Merch

The league store has some cool things, but to me they seem a bit expensive. I see the appeal for them, as some of the statues are cute, or funny. I think that the higher rank a person is they should get a discount. My idea would work like this 1-30/Bronze - full price Silver - 5% discount Gold - 10% discount Plat - 15% discount Diamond - 20% discount Master/challenger - ? I don't know, I'm not ever going to get there.

For example a Ziggs statue is 150$ if someone were silver 150x0.05=7.5. Riot would lose 7.5$ for most purchases if people use this as most people are silver or below (69.1%.) Riot wouldn't lose much in the way in money, and it would make it more rewarding for people who climb the ladder. It could also be a reward in the middle of season, instead of the end.

skins should be cheaper or have more sales for better players too :D

Yeah, no. Discounts should be handed out on a basis other than rank, if and when they do.

Occasionally as an end-of-season thing? Sure, you'd get no complaints from me. But all the time? Hell no.

Merchandise is merchandise. For one thing, it isn't digital, so theres actually a production cost. They have a set amount of profit they want to make from each item.
