Rares

[mr_peasant76]

I think the only reason people buy rares is because they know they can make money off it in a very short span of time. I also think that they only wear them becasue they are rare. If Jagex put in a store where you could buy all the previous holiday items, then we would see who would buy them for the looks and not thinking they can make quick money off it. If they put a store in, those items would instantly become not rare but expensive. The price could be as follows

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

All Phats-20 mill

 

 

 

Christmas Cracker-20 mill

 

 

 

All Masks-10 mill

 

 

 

A Santa 5 mill

 

 

 

A set of Bunny Ears-2.5 mill

 

 

 

A Scythe-2.5 mill

 

 

 

Yo-Yo-1 mill

 

 

 

Rubber Chicken-1 mill

 

 

 

Egg Basket-1 mill

 

 

 

Disks-50 gp and they could put the black hole back in

 

 

 

Half Wines-just transform all those into 30 mill cash so they are gone

 

 

 

Pumpkins and Easter eggs and Chocolate Eggs-750gp each

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lots of people would lose money on phats and lots would gain money on masks and santas and scythes and bunny ears and chickens and yo-yos but the economy would eventually settle down and that way drops could be tradeable.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The reason for the pumpkins and eggs being so cheap is that they wouldnt be used if it was just something that sat in your bank you could maybe train with them or for chocolate eggs hand a bunch out at a party or buy a basket to give them out with. Then everybody could eat one and do the chicken dance.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Then we would find out who really like rare items not becasue they know they can make money off them.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

An example was easter this year. The first day rubber chickens came out almost everybody had them in there hands, the next day some did but not as many and by the end of the week almost everybody was back to there old weapon even if they werent fighting.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And to make sure that people dont buy all the things in the shop to sellfor more the stock could be 1000 and the spawn rate would be 1 every second and there would be no "buy ten" option there.

No

[spuriousmonkey]

all items should be 25k...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

then i would agree.

[ShadowSam19]

some people buy rares as a status symbol, showing off how much money they have or how long they have been playing...this would destroy that.

 

 

 

I do think they should make hooliday drops (bunny ears, [Caution: Jagex Rule Violation]s, rubber chickens) tradable after like 2 yrs.

[Bubsa]

No

 

 

 

Thanks for the enlightenment.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The re invention of tradeable rares and making phats buyable etc would case more grief than reward for Jagex. Think about it, if you were Paul/Andrew/One of the mods, would you want to spend an entire month to outraged players, who have the intelligence of a neanderthol and will end up insulting you in their usual 12 year old way? I sure wouldn't, I'd want to concentrate on the future of the fine game they've made, not trying to correct the past.

 

 

 

If this did happen it wouldn't bother me. But I can think of many a person who would be.

good point bubsa. shadowsam if they made rares tradeable after 2 years they would just become like all the others. prices spiralling out of control and way to expensive for any of the low-mid lvl players to afford. rares should be tradeable and aloud to have more than 1 on your account for 1 month after drop so if your friend is going on christmas holidays you could give him one when he comes back in a week or 2.

make everything 50 mil and if some1 really wants one then they buy it. this way no1 will lose money cuz phats arent at 50 mil yet
