The quick and easy GE merchanting trick!

[sirgudi]

Hi,

 

this trick requires:

 

-Some starting money, suggested 5m+

 

 

 

I suggest not attempting this in F2P as there are far less items.

 

 

 

Step 1. To start, go to GE and search around for an item that is highly traded. You can use the top most traded list which can be found here: http://itemdb-rs.runescape.com/frontpage.ws

 

 

 

Step 2. Find an item with a flat horizontal graph (over 30 days). Then find the exact market value of this item (call this "Value A"). Get up calculator (Unless it is an obvious number) and times it by 0.025 (call this "Value B").

 

 

 

Step 3. Then take the amount you get away from the market price. This is the price you should buy the item for. Once you have bought a decent amount of the item, add Value A and Value B. This is the price you should sell for. You will make 5% profit if done successfully.

 

 

 

Step 4. Enjoy!

 

 

 

Tips:

 

-Leave a decent amount of time for the items to buy and sell, i would suggest around 24 hours overall.

 

-Pick an item that is above 30gp, as this allows you to make fairly good profit off each item.

 

-Test items, buy small amounts with this technique and see how fast you buy and sell.

 

-Do not put all of your money into one item. Split your money up (I suggest into about 4 parts).

 

 

 

Enjoy!

Indeed this works. I've made 10s of M with vials of water with this method.

 

 

 

You used WAYYYY more words than needed to explain this really simple method.

 

 

 

Good tip, thanks!

Good guide - but I didn't really understand it that well. I prefer your other guide - I think it brings more money aswell. Nice tip though. ;)

This does work. However, you do need a bit (by "bit" I mean an average of 10m per trade) to make this yield any real profits. But it does work well.
