Refund nerfed guns / character skins ????

I have spent over $150 on apex to support the game developers, and my very first time crafting I thought about which gun skins i really wanted, finally after 1-2 weeks of deciding I chose spitfire 1200 materials and epic wingman 400 materials total spent 1600 crafting materials a few days after I crafted these guns they get nerfed to the point that no one uses them . for reference after spending $100 and opening 115 packs i only got 2600 crafting material , can there be some kind of temporary refund for skins that get nerfed ? alot of big games have this option , like fort night , hearthstone they give you option to get your material back if something gets nerfed. I would just like to be able to recraft the 2 gun skins that got nerfed , feels like I got cheated out of my crafting material .

whether or not his/her weapon choice is still good or not, I think we should get an option to get a refund (maybe like 85% refund) when the balance is changed, especially for people who bought the skin a week before the nerf hit.

yes i paid for pixels of gun skins that i really enjoyed using , and after i paid a few days later they changed both guns to the point that i dont like using them any more , if i would have known earlier that these guns would get nerfed i would have chosen another gun skin that i enjoy using . feel cheated out of my crafting material, thats all

@skortchedblunt Seriously... when I read the title I was like 'wth does this person mean' and when I read your actual post I was like 'LOLZ wait wha?'

You really want your money back cause you paid for pixel material that was still the same after they decided to change the code for the function of an object on which your pixel texture was on? You paid for a skin, not for the gun to stay the same. It's a shooter. You should know that in shooters things get buffed or nerfed. There's always a chance that this can get done to 'your weapon'.

It's like saying that if the mozambique gets a buff you'd buy a skin for that or that the mozambique legendary that you got which at first you hated, you'll love then xD. You should really just play the way you wanna play and don't let public opinion (cause that's basically what this amounts to) dictate which guns you gonna use. If you can't do that, either don't spend money on cosmetics or use that money on character skins... which can also get nerfed or buffed XD

@skortchedbluntI think your suggestion is quite interesting. If a policy of giving in game credit to allow players to repurchase skins was not acceptable, then perhaps there could be either universal skins at each tier or the chance to use a token to turn a skin into a universal skin.
