September 22, 200718 yr Well, about a month ago i got 99 hunter, and could barely sell my 30k red chins i had left for 700gp each... Last night i get on the RSOF and i see many people buying and selling them for 800gp each! This is a huge increase because chins are sold in large loads at a time. Does anyone have an idea why they increased so rapidly? and does anyone think they will keep rising in price? I think they rose because the rush of hunters who got 83 hunter for dragon imps have finally sold all of their chins, so the supply is now less then the demand.. Post your thoughts. http://www.zeitgeistmovie.com/
September 22, 200718 yr Awsome! I was thinking about getting 99 hunter to start off with some money because I don't have much. \
September 22, 200718 yr Catching chimchompas doesnt appeal to me so this wont really matter to me, i think it is because people are now slowing down from hunting,for the non skiller, there isnt a reason to hunt unless your going for the drag imp.

September 22, 200718 yr gotta agree with sseli I made some money at gwd and I just bought 99 ranged. just being lazy to go down at ape atoll now lol :-w Road To Trimmed Completionist
September 22, 200718 yr So much for getting my Hunting to 74/83 after I get lvl 126, then blow the chimps on Range. Higher chinchompa prices will probably mean more hunters :?. Which will mean lower prices because of more supply, which will mean less hunters, which will mean higher prices because of less supply... It comes to a balance when the price stabilizes.
September 22, 200718 yr Guy: Hey Guy2: Hey, what's up? Guy: Chinchompas have raised in price of 100gp ea! And I just sold 30 00 chinchompas too! Guy2: Sucks Guy: What do you think is the cause of this dramatic change? Guy2: Idk, lol Guy: I think this might be due to GWD Guy2: ... Guy: Which caused an input a money into certain players Guy2: ... (this guys a nerd) Guy: And those players now want to gain 99 ranged Guy2: ... (wtf is he talking about?) Guy: Thus producing this raise of 100gp each chinchompa Guy2: ... (*Stopped listening, doing other stuff*) Guy: What do you think? Guy2: (*Not talking to guy1 for several weeks*) 2480+ total
September 22, 200718 yr Author anyone think they will keep rising untill 900-1k before they fall again? http://www.zeitgeistmovie.com/

Guy2: (*Not talking to guy1 for several weeks*) Do you honestly think that anyone that notices a general trend in the variation of item prices is a nerd? And the ability to reason out a cause is worthy of ignoring them? Why is being stupid praised these days? What is wrong with you? @ the topic... I imagine it is indeed on account of less intrest in catching chinchompas due to implings being more profitable, as well as an increase in people looking to buy the range stat, both combined to raise prices. People just need to learn to share crabs.I'd prefer my nether regions clear of diseases, thank you very much.just turn off accept aids
September 22, 200718 yr It's very easy, and sseli already mentioned it. When in Rs prices of certain items increases I can give you on a note that 8 out of 10 times in that week there was a release of new items, being sold for lots and lots (in this case the GWD items, in the past it were dragon full helm, dragon fire shield and such). There are some very rich people in the game, however they keep most of their money, so the money is in the rs economy, but not in the market. Now that the GWD items are released several people that weren't very rich, or were quite rich but still want to sell their drops get some GWD items. The very rich buy these items for very high prices since it probably won't be alot compared to all the money they got. What actually happened here is that the money that wasn't really circulating in the market now DOES enter the market. The money moved from the very rich to the medium rich/quite rich people. However these medium rich/quite rich population that now got alot of money from selling GWD items now purchase things they'd never had done before if they didn't get a GWD drop. For example 'buying 99 ranged' with red chinchompas. Imagine they used to have 'only' 30m cash, now they sold a hilt for let's say 50m. Now they got 80m and they can afford buying 99 ranged now, some of them also actually do this. Therefore increasing the demand for red chinchompas --> price rising. The same happened to rare items lately, because some of the money that was in the rs economy already moved from rich people -that kept the money outside the rs market- to people who are less rich and now can afford many more things they couldn't buy before, such as rares (= rares going up). I hope this story is a bit clear, the moral of the story is mainly that INFLATION caused prices of items such as rares and red chinchompas to go up. As people got more money from GWD items they now can buy some of the 'elite' items (rares, chinchompas). It is quite an abstract theory but I hope I cleared up some things ;)
September 22, 200718 yr Author wow thanks tigjer, i couldnt have hoped for a better explanation : http://www.zeitgeistmovie.com/
September 22, 200718 yr I noticed the price increase but I still kept selling for 700 ea, lots of buyers, no waiting. Probably go back to Hunter again soon and start collecting as much as possible to buy a dragonfire shield.
September 22, 200718 yr the way things are going it might start hitting 1k soon which is great for people like me who are gettting high hunter soon Dragon Drops: Platelegs x9, Med Helms x7, Plateskirts x4, Shield Left Half x3, At least 75+ Boots!, Hatchets x5, Ruined Shard x1, Solo Claws x2, Dragon 2Hander x1, Spear x2Whip x27, Dark Bows x9, Draconic Visage x1 <- do that when you see me :P
September 22, 200718 yr but the higher the price the more people will try to make that money and then that would cause price decreases on some items.
September 22, 200718 yr also more poeple would want to hunt chinompas meaning too much chinompas that could actual increse supply meaning not enough people to sell to
September 22, 200718 yr Gives me a excuse to get to my next milestone after 99 Hunter of 15m Exp I suppose.
