Why Players choose to buy in Auction than in Exchange?

The main reason why these players choose to buy cards in the auction rather than Exchange was due to low chances of snapping an item in Exchange. The availability of these rare cards in Exchange is very low while the number of buyers is very high. Players who wanted to purchase the cards will get a slim chance of snapping the item after the snapping period. Sometimes, these cards are sold out and not available on Exchange.

In the example below, Eclipse Card is sold for 4,397,067 Zeny with only 2 items available in Exchange while the prospect buyers are at 162. When the snapping period ends, only 2 of the 162 buyers will able to buy the item.

While in Auction, your only competition is your pocket and other rick kid bidders, as long as you have enormous amount of money (Real money) you’ll have no problem winning the item in the Auction.
