The very first way I made money was in classic, by training in the goblin house, and picking up the iron daggers that used to respawn and selling them at the sword shop in Varrok. Also by selling the goblin armor to higher level players doing that quest.

membs - picked flax

 

 

 

f2p - wc

 

 

 

eventually worked my way up to doing rc, alc hunt and what not but ^'s my nub ways

Let your yellow mellow.

Mined. thought I was so rich getting 300k for 2k coal=o

I always WCed my way to a set of rune, then lost it pking, WCed again...

When I was a noob, I was often out of money. In fact until I became a member at lvl 56 I just barely had enough money to buy my essentials. I never owned more than 80k cash at any given point. I just scavenged runescape, doing nonmember quests for exp, earned the little amounts of money here and there. but really i was always broke.

tip it would pay me $500.00 to keep my clothes ON :( :lol:
But then again, you fail to realize that 101% of the people in this universe hate you. Yes, humankind's hatred against you goes beyond mathematical possibilities.
That tears it. I'm starting an animal rebellion using my mind powers. Those PETA bastards will never see it coming until the porcupines are half way up their asses.

Apparently a lot of people say it. I own.

F2p: Mined Ess and sold it in W2.

 

 

 

p2p: Flax

Back in RSC, when I was a super noob and young, I collected steel plates in the Lava Maze.

 

 

 

I was, however, smart enough to switch worlds to do this. There were only about four, but each plate was worth an amazing 1.2k when sold to the plate store. =O

 

 

 

'Twas fun.

Mining and selling rune essence :)

 

I thought it was big money.

Hmm... I got my first full rune by mining 3k rune ess, cutting some yews and willows. When I got the set I felt so rich!

 

 

 

After that I started cutting yews and sold them for 300gp ea, which got me my 1,6m that really helped me when I got my membership. I can't really remember how I made my first k's... Propably doing random stuff.

6,521th to 99 woodcutting | Fletching 98/99 |

Idarodo | Combat 90 | Total 1565+ | 38m+ total exp

 

Retired.

i smithed stuff and sold to the general store. that first full rune set was a hard one

 

 

 

i merch now. its the only good way to make money in f2p

I mined and smithed a lot, i mean A LOT i could get into the mining guild at lvl 9. I could make full mith at lvl 10 so i lvled up attack and defense til i could wear it and then leveled up str as i did every f2p quest in full mith. (yes even dragon slayer). Then i got members and got my wcing and fletching up to 70. then I got wcing to 76 and left it there. Thats when I realized that I need more combat and did that. RS lifestory ftw!

I mined iron and coal, 27 of each per trip (cudnt hold a rune pic). I never thought of stocking up, and always sold to those merchants that hang out and buy small amounts for cheap. Iron went for 1k-1.3k per trip, and coal for 2.5k+ per trip (never realized i was selling so cheap).

 

 

 

Then one day i stocked up 2k iron to sell for 100k to a rich dude who gave me the job. I was thrilled; 100k was SO MUCH (back then)! Turned out the guy wouldnt pay, so i went to world 1. It was the best day of my life, i sold the iron for an amazing 200k (never knew it went for 100ea)! Man, i felt elated. I proceeded to buy full black (t).

 

 

 

But now the blk (t) is sara, and the 100k is only 1/50 my savings. But honestly, I may be richer now, but it was back then when runescape was at its funnest.

Life is a joke. Yeah, I don't get it either.

Hello, :)

 

 

 

I started by selling feathers from my first kills, then selling trout, salmon and -finally- lobbies...

 

 

 

Right after I became a member I started a rather successful herblore shop which got me to one million geepees from gathering vials and seconds only (no high skill levels involved in that business). Soon after (before to hit lvl 60 combat) I've made it to buy me a fury and my first santa. 8-)

 

 

 

Nowadays I make most of my cash from selling potions (70 herblore together with 83 farming rocks!) and crafting laws and nats. My lowest skill being slayer I did not start Barrows yet, but I just hit lvl 55 so I guess I'm going to start pretty soon. ;)

 

 

 

Honestly, at level 101 combat I still think I'm a newbie! :mrgreen:

Come, be my light.

Mingle with my darkness

May we mix to create

Our own twilight sunset

The dusk breeze

Spreading clouds

On our murky horizon
