    I will never get why people are actually spending money on this. 1) You pay a lot of money just to get a stage cleared in a videogame without feeling like you actually accomplished anything, 2) you get a title and a glamour weapon you can wear but very time you look at it you also damn well know that you didn't earned it and 3) you can't even feel special about it because with so many dudes already have cleared it noone really cares anymore.

    To be fair, some of the ultimate weapons are super nice glamours, regardless of the fact they're tied to ultimate (especially most of the Ultima weapon ones, considering the base models are THE original relic weapons and have a ton of symbolism.). If they're in it for the glamour, they probably don't care or have any sort of guilt about buying it & not earning it, they just want the shiny cool as heck weapon, regardless of how others perceive them. And much like in other facets of life, if they're willing to put money down on it, chances are they're at a point where they value their time more than the cost of what these people are charging for it. Why do you think mobile games usually have a few people spending $1000's of dollars on microtransactions that save them time? Same thought process.

    People simply value their money differently.
