pipeelbakan Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 This friday i bought my first rare, green mask for 19.4m, i fastly sold for 19.7m and decided to merchant, my membership ran out after buying a mask for 19m, i think i would made a profit on f2p but i got in trouble. I count the noobs that came: 4 Empty box scammers 3 offers under 10m 1 easter egg offer 6 offers under 1m 9 offers under 100k 4 offers under 10k and 5 annoying hours of selling. Finally sold for 19.1 making 100k So have you got in trouble by merchanting or selling a rare? Prices drop and go up fast. Post your story here. _____________________________________________________________ Own ur pixlz - 55 str 50 att Pipeelbakan - Pro mage staker with 82 mage 50 rune defenders archived 9 aug 2007 Saradomin gwd drops: 6 Ss, 2 hilts.

rune256513 Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Well its not exactly a 'rare' rare. I bought a 3rd age mage hat last week for 8.2m and sold it 30min later for 8.8. I thought great i'll do it again. Bad Idea. :x Bought another one. Tried to sell for 3 days. :-w I finally made 100k of the robin set the guy traded me. :thumbsup: One by one the penguins steal my sanity!!!???98% Of teenagers surround their minds with rap music, if you're part of the 2% that stayed with rock, put this in your signature, ROCK IS BETTER!

mchainmail Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 What is an empty box scammer? they offer nothing? It's a f2p item that is an empty box of fish food? It is worthless, but since people don't know what it is, they assume that it is rare. A similar thing used to occur with polished buttons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Italian5kamikaze Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Sure let me just trade you my rare for an empty box :| Seriously i wonder how much of their lives these scammers, if you even give them enough credit to call them that, waste until they find out its not going to work. Quit. PM me if you play The Conduit to exchange friend codes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tintin113 Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 What is an empty box scammer? they offer nothing? what is an empty box? There is a quest in f2p where you have to poison fish food. The scammers take the empty fish food box and pretend that it is a rare. Thanks to Quarra for the awesome sig!Xbox360 Gamertag = Tintin113 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragon_lord Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 It's a tricky business, but like the saying goes: "the higher the risk, the bigger the reward". Pretty much what Dragon said.Thread terminated.I guess that means I'm the thread Terminator? No Tip.Iters were harmed in the making of this post.

titanic Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Rare items prices are going up, and then down. Just like sharks. I was selling 1,000 sharks, and NO one wanted them.

Danqazmlp Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 It would be easier to merch it in P2p, f2p isnt the easiest to merch in. Want to be my friend?

Nazgul740 Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 this is the one thing i will agree on with most f2p haters... there are tons of people in f2p who have no idea what the prices are on items... who just want to see items... and who want to try and get an item by scamming... I tried to buy a pumpkin once and spent 2 hours there wasteing my time... it was really frustraiting... Also, with the trade screen modifications its amazing how many people STILL try and switch prices or items... :x most of the time i browse p2p forums and pick out people add them and message... takes a bit of time but not as much as f2p selling... Most f2pers don't have enough cash for rares so its harder to get a sale New sigzor^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meili Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 That's why I never merchant. If I need to buy or sell anything I get or sell it to my friends. If I can't find one who has/wants it then I read the forums. Join a big clan and merchant it to them, that's my suggestion. ;) The Runescape Wilderness - Meili's Blog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
