No support - sounds an awful lot like gambling to me and that's not something you should want to promote on a childrens website?

Hmm mostly people only think negative on this. . . Darn :/
I was mostly thinking of it as something for fun, also because me myself I like to buy random big amounts of items, I also have here and there given at the Wishing Well, people that are wanting certain items, and it I do happen to have it, I gift it to them, or buy it :P
I probably have more Store items than I think. . . XD
Mostly Wigs. . . even if a deal was pulled up for the wigs it be kinda cool xD

This reminds me a lot of the mystery capsules you can get on neopets for real money. The idea is that you buy one for x amount of currency and then you get a random item or items worth that amount - with a chance of a special bonus item that is usually pretty rare. But I've seen people waste loads of money trying for a bonus (and never getting it) - plus they end up with a bunch of items they're never really going to use. They're pretty popular and the chance can be fun but more often than not it ends in disappointment so I don't really think I'd want to see the scramble for bonus items ruin people here too. :(
Have a good day y'all.

Yeah, I guess maybe that you can trade in your items for a spin too. So people can try again.

Being able to trade the items in for another spin of the wheel seems to me like it would make the entire spinning wheel redundant.

While I believe that people should live with the choices they make (gambling on a random item pick, in this case), I just don't see a good enough reason to implement this compared to all the problems it could create.
I was hacked. Not going to remake all my groups and such unless I feel like it. That's a lotta work. Don't bother with trades, everything's a mess.

I never liked the idea of gambling or lucky dips. I'd rather pay upfront and know what I'm getting than pay and get something I either did not want or something worth less than what I had payed.
