The Gem Hunt is a mini-game in Arte's Curio Shop where players can collect gems to sell for KinzCash or trade for the Crown of Wonder. Later that month, the rare items from the Kooky Scientist Theme were retired. Ganz made a statement on Apthat a rare theme would be retiring from the Curio Shop soon. It was one of the first themes in Webkinz World, and was retired from the WShop sometime before August 25, 2007, making it the first retired WShop theme. The Hockey Theme was retired from the Curio Shop March 4, 2009. Sometimes items are retired from the WShop but you can still buy them from Arte as one of Arte's Favorites. Each day you will have the opportunity to purchase an extra rare item and extra sales items. If you are a Deluxe Member, you will have an extra section of the Curio Shop where you can purchase an extra set of items each hour. If you are trying to achieve your level for your Key to Kinzville Quest, then this item counts towards the Quest.
