I don't play CS, but...

I dunno, bit better, bit worse, little bit of column a and b. To me this reads like "surprise-fomo-store": congratulations, you found the rarest of things, good job, now fork over this months rent money, you'll probably never get this lucky again!

Sure, you don't need to pay, but same argument applies to lootboxes in general.

The prices of these rarer items are just silly. TBH.
