icecube Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 So I'm buying a lot of Gold Bars for crafting, and I had a lot of PM's from people selling them. Three of the four had over 15k gold bars and one had over 100k... :shock: So my question is: How do people have so many? and why are they so eager to sell them, even if it's less than the price they wanted (got a guy to drop price from 210 to 120 easily)? Is it from gold ore smithing? I asked one guy and he said "I have my ways", so that leads me to believe there's something I'm missing. :XD: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gold_Tiger10 Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Its from Gold Ore Smelting. People get tons of bars, and can't be annoyed to make them into Amulets for Crafting & Magic XP. Their a little hard to sell. here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icecube Posted December 10, 2007 Author Share Posted December 10, 2007 Ok, I thought there was something else I was missing because people seemed really eager to sell them off. I guess it's just because no one buys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samari81 Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Also as the market of steel is so much bigger Gold bars are hard to sell Someone walks right in to buying the 20k ores Then once theyve smelted them all they then realise how hard they are to sell so they drop their price to sell quicker Help me starting out again - Give YOUR advice!If you're collecting in game "hyt's" send me a message here or in game :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icecube Posted December 10, 2007 Author Share Posted December 10, 2007 One word: Bracelets Earn Cash and Train Magic (100Kxp/hr) and Craft (60Kxp/hr)! But once too many people start doing this, prices for one of the materials will probably go up due to demand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inuashakent Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 No, I can almost promise you that won't happen. Only thing that will is ruby prices increasing. Gold bars are the result of the fastest and one of the most costly smithing xp in the game...

icecube Posted December 10, 2007 Author Share Posted December 10, 2007 I know, that's why I said prices of one of the materials, didn't specify that it would be gold bars. But might as well stock up now, since they're easily bought cheap. Better safe then sorry :D . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inuashakent Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 One question thats a little off-topic... what do you mean by semi-retired? [Summoning guide (AOW)] [Slayer guide] [Melee & Brawl player] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icecube Posted December 10, 2007 Author Share Posted December 10, 2007 Well I was "retired" / on a break for the past year and recently came back. Don't really playing RS that much now, but I still do play it, so I guess it puts me in-between? I spend more time on these forums then on the game now.

Laikrob Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Locked on author's request. Laikrob, Tip.It Moderator You're accusing me of bigotry, how ironic. It's a nice attempt at argument, but your responses are facile and asinine, if not diatribe. Who's arrogant now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
