blakdragon39 Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 So I'm sure a lot of you know that Santa's have been rapidly climbing for the last week or so. And if you've been following the prices of them, you'd also know they're starting to crash as of today. I sold my falling blue h'ween mask and bought a santa early in the rise, hoping to sell it for 20m or so. Yesterday it reached 19.1m, and I decided that today, (yesterday's tomorrow) I would sell it. I was sure a crash was gonna happen soon. I wouldn't have gotten the 20m i wanted, but it would have been good enough. I log on this morning and... the crash had already started. And now I'm angry at it for not going with my plans. :XD: That's my rant... That they fell one day too early. :( I don't care if you think this is hardly deserving of a rant, or if you want to flame me for using the Rants forums exactly as it's meant to be used. Good day.

willyhenriksen Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 Well, yeah. Everyone's selling them now. I just hope I get it sold before it goes below 12m... R.I.P. Shiva and Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blakdragon39 Posted July 28, 2008 Author Share Posted July 28, 2008 I've decided I'm keeping mine. I originally bought my blue h'ween mask for 18m or so, before the GE ever happened. :P After that is crashed, and hasn't recovered since. :( When Santa's started climbing I had hoped this would be how I would finally get the money back for that mask. :D Guess not though. However, by keeping it, I still get to wear it as part of my skilling outfit, :D and it will go back up again sometime in the future. I have no issue with being patient. :) Anyone know why it decided to fall btw? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blakdragon39 Posted July 28, 2008 Author Share Posted July 28, 2008 Yay for free cookies! :mrgreen: Anyways, I've just seen a LOT of flaming for almost EVERY rant on this forum, even though this is the RANTS forum. I hope whoever is doing all this flaming realizes this soon. :roll: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pawn Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 Haha, I know what you mean! I bought a couple of SS's and was gonna sell them before the crash but was too late!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brave2 Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 So, you won't make a quick buck :wall: :lol: Just remember the value of rares, just like shares on the stock market, can go down as well as up. Keep it for the next increase in prices. It will happen, just be patient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep it for the next increase in prices. It will happen, just be patient. Not to cause panic, but that's a big IF. Not all items go back up. Granted rares aren't in the "new item rush" category, but there is always the possibility that they won't go back up. Normally, the market is a gamble at Vegas, but if you can pinpoint the cause of the rises and falls (which can normally take years, but unusually takes only about a week or so in Rs), then it's mainly how much you trust your gut. On a side note, I brought moar cookies! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However w/ santas going up I ditched the mask. :P Guess I'll see what happens. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
