A small fee to increase the data allotment is hardly unreasonable as it is an extra to your base access. Like a smartphone, even though it is broken out of your phone plan, you have to pay for a certain amount of data, 3gb or w/e these days. It doesn't matter if it is broken out or not, because it is a requirement to have a smartphone on the network. If you want more data, you pay an extra fee. We don't have access to an entire database for storage, we have to share among all other players. Also, if you are going to complain about the armoire make a post about that. It still stores things, it still works, just not in a reasonable way at times.
And why do the other P2P MMOs do it then, when they let us get extra storage paying with in-game currency? No, the real issue is in that charging for it doesn't seem to be needed and that it doesn't follow with what they've been doing and saying until now. Not to mention all the other potential issues that others have pointed out.

Also, I'm sorry, but the armoire issues are related to retainers as well, as we have to store in them some items (19 right now, if not mistaken) for 3 months until they allow us to put them in the armoire as they should be from the start (that's what said feature is intended to do). I never complained about that before because it didn't really matter if it was just temporary, I was able to have some patience. But when they start charging real money for retainer space (thus making any wasted space worth actual money), thats where I have to say "there's the limit".
