On the fixed price of shares the most investor might decide not to bought the shares because most investors came to bought the shares at great discount to make some quick profits on the secondary market.
when the shares price are fixed and not at any discount, then the investor couldn’t have the opportunities to bought at the discount anyway.
But obviously some shares price are fair and not got into discount but the some company have great history profit record and good reputation.
This leads the investor to purchase the stocks for some reason. So the fixed price shares have full sales or full subscription problems.
On the other hand auction price set up when the investment bank or industry have confusion are price set up. The shares are bid by investor to determine final price.
But when lots of investors bid the shares price at very low then their is a high chance that certain industry got very money for their issued shares of stocks instead of getting fair amount.
This leads the companies to not raise the enough capital for the future projects or plans of the company.
So the auction price set up have the good shares sales but have the risk to got very less money for the shares of the company because of the high discount bid of the investors in the book building.
