What is it?

unless your rich and can afford buying overly priced yews...I suggest chopping your own yews to fletch,buying bs/flax (flax save a bit more money and you get some craft exp =]) and buying ess/nats and than alching.

 

 

 

Buying yews+nats/ess+bs/flax=gp loss most the time.

Mage Logs + Strings (Bought from GE) > Mage Longs (Sold to GE).

 

 

 

Would that be cheap 85-99?

I've never heard of anyone buying mage longs, there more sold for more than there alch value aren't they?

Wow, helpful. Anybody got more advice? I sort've wanted it to be fast an easy as it has been 3 years before the unbalanced trade removal.

No...

 

When I was buying alchs for 99 mage, I would lose ~56gp per mage long, instead of the ~84 gp per yew long. This was a week or two before the trade update.

 

I would've bought all mage longs, but since yews were cheaper I could buy more to stock up on.

 

 

 

Anyways, yes there is demand for mage longs.

I train it like this, and I earn profit:

 

 

 

Buy yew logs (450gp) and bs (170gp), sell the longs at GE for 650ea

How do you sell the longs with trade restrictions?

Yea, best way to train is to make yew longs, alch.

 

 

 

'Nuff Said.

Yesterday, I bought 1.9k magic logs, and bow strings, and I MADE MONEY FLETCHING them, and gained alot of exp.

 

 

 

Fletch then string, here is the prices that I recorded (specifically to see if I would loose any!)

 

 

 

 

 

1,950 Magic Logs @ 1,220 Each

 

1,950 Bow Strings @ 137 Each

 

1,950 Magic Long Bows Made @ Costing 1,357 Each

 

1,950 Magic Long Bows Sold @ 1,415 Each

 

 

 

 

 

As you see I made 58 GP PER magic longbow, so, I believe this is the best method. Dont alch the bows.

 

 

 

If you dont believe me, buy from GE one at a time and record the buy/sell price, just for 1 bow, then you will find out. I had no trouble buying the items time wise, took about 10 minutes, was able to finish my slayer task.

 

 

 

Good luck!

Hmm why would anybody pay that much? :-k

:o they sell for 1400+ now?

Yes they do, I put em on GE the other day, lowest price wasnt even below 1400. This is one of the better examples of Jagex's handy work.

Yes, but why is anyone even buying them? That's above alch price :-s

1,536 is high alch price, if you get for 1,415, lets set natures at about 250, thats only 129 GP loss, its just like normal alching, which, people will still do if they can get good xp at only a small loss.

129 is more than what people used to lose with Yew Longs though. I guess people are desperate now.

Yeah, guess so, anyone know how much yew longs loose now anyway?

704+260=964 (cost of materials)

 

964-768=196 (materials cost minus alch = loss per alch)

 

 

 

so almost 200go per alch assuming my nat price is right, i havn't logged in a while so i'm not sure of that.

Maybe maple longs... it's not extremly fast but it's absolutely free

Oops, my mistake. I thought they alched for 1300-ish :wall:

That's about right (261-263). It's much cheaper if you make yew longs yourself; I guess people are too lazy to do that...

When you have 120k+ alchs ahead of you, the last thing you want is to think about is cutting then stringing 120k logs. Although i guess that could change since this update.
