When jagex made GE...

guy said selling full veracs 4.2 mil

 

 

 

it was 100k cheaper everywhere else, so i bought in a hurry. i wore it to see how cool it looked, and kept clicking veracs skirt to make it equip, but it wouldnt. it later turned out i had bought 2 by mistake, without getting the helm

I fell for the "Max hit scam" whatever, call me a nub I don't care, I CANNOT believe I fell for it. I lost a green mask (19m at the time) 3m cash, whip, rune boots and repaired karils. And I think Ranger boots, but it was so long ago, I forgot.

 

 

 

 

 

I've also lost a second green mask to a friend running off, and a robin to a friend running off with it.

My very good rs friend ran off with blue & green masks.

 

And I was lured for 210k essence a few weeks before the pure ess update

 

(value before pure ess: 7.5m value after pure ess: 21m)

worst scam for me was probably when the new TT items came out, and i got messed up with the "duo-scam" one guy selling low, other buying high. Don't know why i didn't notice at first, but lost about a million off of it. Hurt me pretty bad at the time.

I haven't really been scammed...I basically managed to pick up on how to identify scams very quickly, The only time I came close to losing something of value is when Full Enchanted Robes used to be roughly 800k.

 

 

 

Ok, So yeah...This was months upon months before the Ditch was ever release, I was selling this Enchanted set I picked up, And I got a rather generous offer for it, I was told that the buyer was training his woodcutting across the Edgeville bridge...I know I should have been more wary but still... :-k

 

 

 

So anyway, I find the guy, Trade him and managed to get dragged out into level one wilderness...I didn't realise I was in the Wilderness at the time, So I click on the guy again...Tagged...Skulled...So I'm skulled in the Wilderness with 800k on my person :wall:

 

 

 

This guy had an Ancient Mage friend with him, The same level as me Ice Bursting me while the "buyer" tried to rip into me with his DDS, One thing I am VERY proud is, Is that I escaped with my Enchanted still in my possession...Gf lurers...Try harder next time. :shame:

 

 

 

So technically, While I have been lured, It was never a success on their part...So does it really count? And seeing as I've never been really scammed either...Ah well, I thought it appropriate to post that little story here...Wow...First time I've actually shared this story, Ever, Well, I must admit I was very lucky for that Ancients Ice Burst freeze to run out so I could get away in time to bank... :pray:

 

 

 

Me thinks Lady Luck had a thing for me on that fateful day :mrgreen:

-got skammed went to buy full veracs at 3.1m was so exited i had saved up for like a month and traded only to realize 20min later that i got black skirt not veracs skirt #-o (lost 400k)

Hmmm. my worst scam :-k

 

I bough iron baxe instead rune for 35k.... it's not much, but it's the worst scam i every had

Dharoks, emo's ultimate weapon if you know what i'm sayin. :lol:
Very nice 10/10

For a second when I was looking at your drop-list picture. Ilooked at the dragon longsword and said "They have a dragon longsword now??" ohh I'm tired :wall:

..., then I noticed a gravestone where our tank was supposed to be and my health was a 1 digit number again.

A few months ago, I had a green partyhat that I bought for 4m about 3 years ago. They were about 180m at that time when I decided to sell so I went to that spot in World 2 falador where you sell rares. Got paid 58m + 54k nats for my partyhat. This means I lost about 100m in terms of today's pricing, but gained 96m in terms of 3 years ago.

 

 

 

So I'm kinda happy anyway. :)

"fail,well atleast the title,i wont read it with that colours"

"If you hadn't posted in rainbow I would actually give this a proper read"

"Colours suck."

*I remove colours*

"Where did all the colors go!? This is now 40% more likely to be tl;dr'd due to the lack of colors."

Back in RSC, I was attempting to buy a santa for 180k (price was around 200k then), so I offered full rune or something... he took away santa at last minute and I accepted.

 

 

 

:oops:
