Riot should give people refunds back if they have spent over 200$ on league.

I have spent 775$ on league over the past 4 years and I used all of my refunds when I first started playing the game. I think it would be nice if Riot made this possible for the players who have spent a lot on league. My first refund was TwistedFate to get Sejuani after I got Sejuani, I regretted the refund. Upvote this if you think riot should do this.

Yeah there should at least be SOME System in place to re-earn refunds

Like trade 2 or more skins they don't want anymore for a new skin. Maybe 2 for 1 random or more for a specific one. I've got skins I never used (or only used once). There are others I wouldn't mind having, but won't buy regardless (pretty much done giving them my money as I don't like some of the changes and play less and less all the time). But that's just my case. For other cases they're probably better off profit-wise never touching this idea. If they were a little less greedy though (cause we know they're not hurting for money) they'd implement something like this. Just my opinion.

I think there should be a system in place where you can trade champs/skins with friends. Like, I have Riven, who I can't for the life of me get right no matter what videos I watch, and I have a friend who has a champ I would like that they don't. We should be able to trade with them. Idk, just a thought I had.

I mean, they don't really have a reason to do it. They are a business. Their #1 goal is to make as much money as possible. Earning refunds would theoretically decrease money earned. Therefore, not gonna happen.

The refund would not lose them money bc it is rp. The rp would be spent on another skin or champ or whatever else there is rp to be spent on.

You buy $5 RP to buy skin A. You want skin B. You buy $5 RP to buy skin B. If you could refund, you would refund skin A and get skin B. That is losing money. Go from $10 to $5.

People who are buying 5$ riot cards, are not the ones who will spend 200+ dollars on the game

TBH, I used my three refunds on IP purchases >.> soooo, that is why I think refund system needs some tweaks.

For clarity, I bought champions using IP, realized I didn't liked them so refunded them to buy another champ with IP. At the time didn't realize there was only so many refunds.

I did the same thing, so I think it would be a bit more.... hmm forgiving to players who used their refunds in the beginning so carelessly. This is just a suggestion on how we could get a little bit of a reward for how much money we have put into a game.

some refunds should be available to reward their loyalty

I mean... the thing is, with the ingame refund system they don't LOSE any money, you just reallocate the money you spent on their game from content you thought you wanted to content you actually want after some hindsight.

That's exactly why I made this post, so that the players can earn some of their refunds back

I think earning refunds would be interesting if it was a cash out / cash in system that could earn you a chance to swap something, like in store credit. I could see for every 3 mystery gifts you give out you earn 1 refund of a skin / champion of your choice. I think this could be profit increasing for Riot as it promotes gifting to others that always makes people happy and less toxic and more likely to spend money.

It would give people a way to justify that gift they may have been hesitant to send as well as helping to erase buyers remorse on a purchase they made in haste. It's a true win / win / win ..

Riot wins with making more = $$$ than what was lost through refunds.

Person with buyers remorse = $$$ back on something they didn't like as well as others happy with him/her due to giving out gifts.

League community as a whole = Winning as this would be a trickle down effect to promote less toxicity as more people have a better outlook as more random gifts are going out into the pool of players as a whole.

^This is exactly why I posted this. The more ideas given = the more possibilities of this discussion coming to league. I think I'm going to open a ticket with riot so it has a chance of happening.
