like the title said
i just noticed and wondered why not they in the gift store
it would be an easy way for pgi to earn some extra cash and some people could get the option to obtain mechbays if the events or the cw ones arent enough

I think PGI is adding bits and pieces to the gift store. The nature of the MWO community is highly charitable and kind, so it makes sense to have 'Mech bays, mastery bundles, etc. implemented into the store.
That being said, the majority of their resources are being devoted to fixing game bugs, finishing up the promised Resistance release, and working out the various CW Beta stuff, or so it seems.
I DO like your idea, but I'm sure they've had plenty of folks here working their ears off about adding more to the gift store.

It does not benefit PGI to put such a low value purchase option in the gift store because :
1- a mechbay is a dollar something. Credit card fees kill that on their own.
2- currently you have to purchase MC to buy mechbays. Because generally speaking there will be MC left over after buying mechbays it increases PGI's gain.
Solution: option to purchase a mech Bay bundle at the gift store.

Also, gifting MC as well.

A mechbay itself would be easily acquired through just buying the current giftable Locust.
What really should occur though is a "mechbay pack"... $5 for 3 or 4 mechbays. That's the best and simplest way for a F2P game to get easy money and is reasonable for everyone.
That's the kind of microtransactions that should be happening.
