Players who earn their mesos honestly get outbid for items by players who purchase large sums of mesos with real money outside of the game. Since sellers only take the highest offer, honest players simply can’t keep up.
Meso bags do this. Even if it is bought by "Nexon or a Nexon-authorized marketing partner."
Do I have to repeat myself?
The ultimate example of this is the classic problem that plagues many MMOs—players purchasing in-game gold for real life money. On the surface it seems like the ultimate “something for nothing” scenario. Why should I work so hard and kill so many monsters when I can get myself some quick mesos without working for it? After all, Nexon itself occasionally offer bags of mesos for sale. The answer is simple, when Nexon puts something up for sale in the Cash Shop, it carefully evaluates the effect such an item will have on the game. The scammers and con artists out there don’t and you may ultimately pay for your “free mesos” by destroying the game you love.
