Look at it like this:
MA wins a little fee for renting the place and a little TAX from whatever people sell. Now multiply this by the number of available spaces new traders will be using, lets say... 1,000. And now by 360 days.

With time, people who benefit from this by gaining PEDs quickly, will surely spend their earnings on TT stuff or even high priced shops.

As always, the economy grows and new comers give MA lots of money.
They can't possibly loose!
It's appealing idea, but it's not going to happen. First of all, auction would suffer. And it would have to be cheaper than auction, because otherwise i see no sense to it. But if it would be cheaper than auction, it would be in competition with shops, which for sure MA doesn't want. New players won't use it for sure, middle level uses auction, ubers can afford a shop, or just don't care.
