Obvious problem with the GE?

Featured Replies

2 part proof as to why the GE can't work as it is:

 

 

 

1) Seeing as how market prices fluctuate depending on prices being used by merchants, and

 

 

 

2) Merchants can only sell at min price

 

 

 

 

 

Therefore, prices will keep dropping because all items will be proposed and bought at the minimum price.

 

 

 

When will it end?

When the prices have dropped to a state in which people realize that it's not worth selling there anymore I guess.

 

 

 

But what you're saying is true, quite a few items have dropped in minimum price lately. I don't know about rises, there should at least be a few that have risen in price?

Merchants don't sell at minimum price, they buy at minimum price.

 

 

 

The price is determined by supply and demand, not merchants, therefore the only way it will constantly drop is if the supply constantly increases or the demand constantly lowers.

yes thats really a problem... magic logs risen a lot... i could easily buy them on forums for 1.1 now the min is 1.2

Therefore, prices will keep dropping because all items will be proposed and bought at the minimum price.

 

 

 

 

 

prices on items im buying keep going up.

Honestly, the update is here and if I know jagex, they won't change anything. Accept it and move on.

 

And as the person above said, prices are actually going up on some items - and down on others. It seems perfectly balanced to me.

When does the Grand Exchange has its dayly update? How late?

 

 

 

OT: Well i don't have problems with the price going down, im getting a lot experience for just a few coins, aint it great? :D

It's highly unlikely to fail.

 

 

 

Merchants will offer to buy at min price and sell at high price.

 

 

 

Thoose two trades balance each other. Therefore they don't cause a drop or rise in price.

 

 

 

As for all the drops etc going on atm, it's because alot of people are selling cheap to try it out AND Jagex set alot of items higher than they should be.

 

 

 

It's obvious there are going to be insane drops/rises in the first few weeks, but as the values get corrected they will all settle out and be no different from normal trading

To me the most obvious problem is that you dont have to enter your bank pin to use it.

 

 

 

If you've got something expensive like a godsword selling on GE and you're hacked, they might not be able to get into your bank but they'll have no trouble with taking things out of GE.

The only problem with GE is that some items are way off, so nobody buys or sells them through GE and the prices will never change to a more realistic price before Jagex tweaks it.

Hence why jagex has a forum thread for users to tell them whihc items are way off market value and what market vlaue is, so they can check it and then tweak

Yeah a JMod actually said ingame about a day after update that they were working on the PIN so don't worry about that :wink:

I didn't know Jmods talked about upcoming changes like that!

 

 

 

Anyway, prices of alot of items go down, too much tbh! Look at blood runes Oo ,but anyway, it's a nice update.

Atleast Hunter could add stuff to it.

 

 

 

But it seems with Grand Exchange. It's like it and get use to it or go to world 2/RSOF.

+3...sorry to make the quote longer, but he took the words out of my mouth.

 

 

 

+4, same.... sorry if it's spam.

It's just supply and demand. The economy will fix itself. When prices get too low, people will realize this and not sell any more, making the price rise back up. When people realize the price is high, then they will start getting more of that item and sell it. It's a simple balance scale and our economy won't implode.

Stop complaining and start taking advantage of it. I went from 1M to about 10M just by merching onyx bolts (waste of time now, so go ahead and do it).

 

 

 

I also bought ~200k kebbit bolts, 50k ashes, 5k diamond bolts, 10k emmy bolts, ....the list goes on. [EDIT]better[/i] items to buy]

 

 

 

Just find some useful, but obscure, items and you can easily turn a big profit.

 

 

 

The price drop is just temporary since everyone is cleaning out their bank. Now is the time to buy, when prices are at their lowest point.

You can't get hacked on RS. Just don't be stupid and dl a keylogger or use an easy pass. But of course, to please the ignorant/developmentally delayed, Jagex will implement it soon -.-

You technically can get hacked on RS... there are bruteforce password crackers out there.

 

That's how my friend lost his account, and no it wasn't a keylogger. None was found before or after his loss of his account.

You clearly don't understand the GE nor have you used it.

 

 

 

If you would bother even trying it you'd know most items by now can't be bought quickly if at all at minimum price and that you actually have to pay the recommended price if not higher.

 

 

 

Come back and cry about it when you've actually tried it, no one cares about senseless and pointless whining.

 

 

 

BTW the GE is really a dream come true for true skillers and merchanters, because now I don't need to spend weeks selling one batch of items for low prices, I just sell everything quickly on the GE.
