by the way, merchanters can kill the economy as well as help it. the less more merchanters there are buying things for low prices, the greater the prices fall... the problem is, that so called "merchants" are not willing to take time to sell items. they just "dont have the time", so they sell them for an outrageously low price, and then, every1 else drops to match... whether they can afford it or not. thats how the economy is crashing... if no one else has noticed it, macroers and the lazy merchants, are messing up the economy. macroers are cutting all day and night, and since they have so many of whatever item, they can afford to sell for less than everyone else. this makes merchanting nearly impossible, due to the fact that no one can out-price a macroer. they sell hundreds of thousands of theyre item... making it impossible to get somethings value out of it. then they trade there new "found" wealth, to there mains. then, they buy other items, and sell those items for cheap, because they can.

Nice comments and ideas-but I currently do not have the time to update my guide, sorry!

 

 

 

Off-topic-I just saw the most unusual thing today. I was walking past the Yew tree near Draynor, which is usually crowded with autoers. For the first time, NO AUTOERS!! It seems Jagex is finally doing something \'

7/10, average merchanting guide with the exception of adding the "real market" situations (listing current prices, what to do and what not).

I'm sorry for spamming this guide

 

Your guide is winning to my "p2p&f2p merchant"

 

So i'm just telling you some stuff.

 

1) How can you tell people about merchanting with sara, or zamorak items, if you can't even affort them, and i gues you haven't ever merchanted them.

 

2) Rares: Oooow! im ganna buy a gr33n halowen mask pl0rz0rz

 

buy 17m sell 22m.

 

 

 

-That takes a year since green halloeween mask prices goes up at may and september.

 

Stays at about 20-21 in the rest of the year and goes down 18m at christmas.

 

 

 

3) Buy a blue for 450m and sell 500m. 50m profit?

 

-A persol would be happy making 1m a day, and making 50m profit in an item is quite impossible, undless you wait a few months.

 

 

 

That's all, the rest of the guide gives good ideas.

Saradomin gwd drops: 6 Ss, 2 hilts.

I've been using this guide, and checking it over and again--Excellent work.

 

 

 

First, 10/10.

 

 

 

Second, The rune methods still work, but it would require...Work to sell them.

 

 

 

Overall one of the best Merchanting guides here.

 

 

 

Off topic: Love your forum; just joined, now I'm sigging it.

 

 

 

See ya. :wink:

Hoping to get a new Signature (with matching avatar) soon. :D

 

In the meantime...Steam username: )I'll rewrite it later (add me if you want)

Actually, I have merchanted them, and it does work. I haven't merchanted rares though. But it is still basically the same concept as all of the other items, wether you truly merchanted it or not.

7.5/10

 

Some of the prices are a bit off, but you get the ideas about what to sell and show you that there are some opportunities in f2p. But i think i'll stick to skilling :wink:

Wow nice guide

1363468.jpg

could you add some pictures please? i would rate it about 7/10

 

 

 

the good :D : variety of ways of merchanting to choose from

 

offers ways for different people depending on the money they have now

 

 

 

the bad :cry: : (sorry if this seems long to you) there is only a few pictures so it seems a little dull and boring to read. (i can't see most of them) most of the ways aren't real big money makers. i like the eye of newts way. but most of the others are slow and tedious. there is much walking back and forth and back and forth. the ways tend to get boring. for example the cowhide method: you have to go back and forth from one bank to the other. many noobs are going to trade you in very small amounts. its very boring. that is all. by the way, you said to bump.

Goodbye merchanting... :cry: I found merchanting the only fun thing left in RS, except maybe PKing, which is also gone.
