With the addition of the "Auction House", Gaijin has really turned a corner. Sure, it's just cosmetics, but they are the only people listing anything in this "auction house", and it's just you bidding against the whales. It's a lose-lose for players who don't want to pay through the nose, and Gaijin should shut it down immediately and issue the cosmetics to everyone in the game as an apology.

Gaijin has always been the only seller for the keys you need to open new cosmetic crates each major update, but that seemed reasonable. Now they're selling outright loot boxes and running a deeply rigged "auction house" and that's just too anti-player for me to continue recommending.
