At my current 61 runecrafting, could I break even/make a profit if I give ess and 2k back?

At my current 61 runecrafting, could I break even/make a profit if I give ess and 2k back?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you were to buy the (25) essence for 20 GP each along with the 2k it equals 2.5k being given away. (25*20=500+2000=2500)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

At level 61 runecrafting you can make 6 airs per essence, so 6*25=150 airs. Airs usually sell for 10 GP ea, so 150*10=1500.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You're giving away 2.5k and getting back 1.5k. You're losing 1k each trade.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

No, you will not break even.

TaDaraCampbell your prices are way off. Normal essence is 30 each in big amounts.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you were to buy the (25) essence for 30 GP each along with the 2k it equals 2.75k being given away. (25*30+500=2750)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

At level 61 runecrafting you can make 6 airs per essence, so 6*25=150 airs. Airs usually sell for 20 GP ea, so 150*20=3000.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You're giving away 2.5k and getting back 3k. You're making 1k each trade.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There I redid there post with the correct prices and statements, with 61 runecrafting you will make 1k each trade.

First, giving 2.5k and getting back 3k is making 500gp per trade, not 1k.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Second, you said you were giving 2.75k. :wink: That's 250gp per trade.

Wow... I didn't know that the price of essence (and airs) has gone up so much. :oops: I haven't done any Runecrafting for near a year now, and those were the prices of back then.

Captainkidd, you have some of your maths wrong, so I've fixed them:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you were to buy the (25) essence for 30 GP each along with the 2k it equals 2750 GP being given away. (25*30=750+2000=2750)

You're giving away 2750 GP and getting back 3k. You're profiting 250 GP each trade.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yes, you will gain profit.

Airs are VERY hard to sell for 20 ea. They usually go for 15-17 ea.

Airs usually go for 15-18 ea, you'd be lucky to find a buyer at 20 ea.

After the pure ess shock, it seems that rune essence prices have firmed up, maybe due to the desertion by autoers.

What's the lowest possible price I could sell for to break even?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

25 ess * 30 = 750 + 2k = 2.75k per trade

 

 

 

25 ess * 6 airs per = 150 airs

 

 

 

2.75k/150=18.3

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Looks like it will be hard to break even...

How about 16gp each? It's working for me...

I am lvl 63 runecrafting and I make a profit there, so don't worry. The prices of air runes went up alot and you can easily find a seller for 18-20ea.

 

 

 

Essence (normal) is about 35ea at the moment.

Ok, I might go for 75 sometime for gigantic pouch \. Makes RC'ing a lot easier....
