This IGN article comforted me somewhat (Destiny)

I wouldn't call this "pay to win" either. But as I said in my comment below, this does create a situation where people who pay extra money get more loot than those who don't (assuming equal playtimes). Keep in mind, these rep packages contain loot that cannot be obtained any other way. The only reason nobody is freaking out right now is because none of the exclusive rep package drops are particularly great, but that could change at any time.

Honestly, the reason I'm not freaking out is because the bonus it gives is so insignificant in the long run that's it's not a big deal. They only give a small boost to rep (10%), and don't even affect bounties. If someone were to pay money for a reputation booster they would get an extra package for every 10 that I get, and not even that since bounties will make it even lower. That's pretty insignificant.
