It's been here since mid 2015 with little to no changes at all.
One of the biggest problems is that the prices for most of the weapons are completely unbalanced compared to what they are actually worth.
Here is what I'm talking about:
Nighthawks go for 81 frags while Swifts are only 68 and are way more sought after, and on top of that they can ONLY be purchased from the weapon shop while Nighthawks can be rolled from almost anything.
Aggro-Magnets are 29 frag while their average cost on the market is 10 coins.
Why would I spend frags that take quite a while to get on a gun that costs 10 coins? It makes no economical sense. None of the lower end guns ever get bought due to this. Not even level 5's that join the lobby for the first time think that's a good deal.
Prices need a significant overhaul of what they currently are.
Another problem is that the shop only resets once a week.
I get back in 2015 this was useful because of how limited drops were, but now that we have a bunch of farmable events and bosses(Bloodwynd, Survive, Grims to an extent), it seems pretty pointless for it to only reset once a week, when 99% of the stuff that goes in it never gets bought anyway.
It would be better if along with the price rehaul, if the shop also reset on Wednesdays.
The last problem I'm going to address is the limited amount of items that can appear in the shop.
Heroics, Kaijus, Distinguisheds, etc all can not appear in the shop. Why? Those guns are all droppable end round, and on top of that they would actually be bought from the shop.
