That is something I have been trying to figure out myself, except in the sense of MapleSEA. We've yet to ever get these as permanent additions so I can't discern their strategy but I do admit that the need to buy these items to perfect your item now may compel some people more than if they were always there in the shop.
On the other hand, given that some players may be fresh out of cash right as the sale starts I would personally choose to make them always available. Sure, I could get a surge in sales and then some from the people caught in a frenzy but I prefer stable income from stable sources and I'd use other methods for quick bucks such as 4x cards or whatever sales.
