chiknstu Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 i found it kinda hard to merchant through the big ole' GE. Yes it's convinient but you could probably find a better deal the ol fashioned way... therefore merchanting has not died or is going to die. And as nice as it is for JaGex to make it easier for us they will in no way stop you from normal trading... And if they do.... :ohnoes: [/url] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Promise Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Merchants will always be there. I have found effective ways to make 500k in 10 mins just from merchanting from player to the GE. This is effectively a filter which separates the noobs from the pros. \ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solidus_77 Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 personally, merchant's always annoyed me. i buy something, only to find that the price is significantly cheaper on the forums. sorry to all the merchanters out there, but go woodcut or something =D> Why do you blame them for your ignorance? :roll: 76th to reach 99 Construction on 6th of February 2007379th to reach 99 Runecrafting on 4th of November 2007 Finally the secrets of goal achieving are revealed!

FastForce Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Merchanting will decrease because of the noobs who have no merchanting skills whatsoever and cant make a dime off merchanting cause of the grand exchange. However good merchans will still exists. If you know what you're doing you can make a lot of money very fast no matter what the profit margin is. The majority of merchanters are noobs and cant adapt to the new system. Road To Trimmed Completionist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldhawk Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 well...for now it appears that merchanting is temporarily dead... with the prices on MOST player made items falling by 5% per day there is no way to merchant as a f2p atm. Merchanting will be just as easy as it was be4 when this whole thing blows over and prices stabalize..which they will..probably in arround 10-12days,considering the prices on player made items will have fallen by up to 50%. Then ppl will buy up all the items they had be4 and still ahve lots of $$ left over, thus inflation will fix the slump in item prices. Merchants will always be there. I have found effective ways to make 500k in 10 mins just from merchanting from player to the GE. This is effectively a filter which separates the noobs from the pros. Im I right assuming that this method involves being p2p? ,,..-~`̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâï\ Happy Mining /̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâï`~-..,,|______.\goldhawk co/.______| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stragomagus Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 i used to merchant rune scimis... buy 24k, sell 32k to a guys who lost theirs in the wildy... good days : BUT NOW!!!!!!! :evil: I HAVEN'T SEEN THE GRAND EXCHANGE YET... but i believe that my merchanting days died in the minutes that JAGEX decided to make the grand exchange... :evil: :uhh: :uhh: Merchanting rune scimitars is still possible and all the other rune items are still possible because "you" as a "merchant" are providing the convience by saving them a trip to the "Grand Exchange." I began merchanting rune scimitars the day the "Grand Exchange" came out and began with 80k and as of now I have profited close to 700k. This course happened because I needed to gain back the 1100k+ I lost on the currently crashing Nature runes. Not only is merchanting not dead, but we are still providing the same things we did before and that thing is ""convience." *edited in after* watch me in-game if you need any proof.
