What is the ruling on buying and selling "skins" in the game "Counter-Strike" with real money for the purpose of profit? Is this considered to be a sale with an unknown element (Jahalah), or is the element of uncertainty here minor and excusable, especially since the purchase involves a choice between items after paying the price?
