jaffarulz Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 many may realise that by using your first recharge on a shield or even subsequesnt recharges on a shield rather than a bow it makes it alot cheaper, but i chose to be lazy and buy some seeds to recharge so i could start recharging the bows at the minimun price. But... now i cant sell the full, unused, shield on the ge and i want to know if it is possible to sell on the GE? and if so how? because there are crystal bows and shield up for sale already what on earth made you think to set it on fire?i... um, guess... because it was there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aslan Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Only fully charged bows/shields can be sold on the GE.You'll have to use them completely, if you want to sell the seed or recharge it,then try the GE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chenw Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 And in fact charging the shield to get down to the lowest price and then subsequently recharging them into a bow is NOT cheaper than charging them into bows, although it does look like it. I will explain why: we have 2 scenarios, first we simply recharge the bow 5 times. In the second scenario we charge into shield 4 times and bow 5 times, so we have equal number of shots between the 2 cases. First case, total cost is: 900k+720k+540k+360k+180k=2700k Second case, total cost is: 750k+600k+450k+300k+(180k*5) = 3000k Grand total of 300k difference, and the recharging your bow only is cheaper than charging shield then into bows. 6,924th to 30 hunting, 13,394th to 30 summoning, 52,993rd to 30 DivinationKiln Record (Post-EoC): W 25 - L 0, 14 Uncut Onyx, 8 Jad hits received (Best record: Two in the same kiln)Obby set renewed post update #2: 0QBD drops: 21 crossbow parts, 3 Visages, 1 Kites, 2 KitsMax Port Score [2205] Achieved: 27th April 2013 (World 2nd) Farmyard Rampage ranking: 12th, 50,000 Kills.

obfuscator Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 i think what he is trying to say is that the offer is there but it will not complete. These weapons are generally veiwed as "obsolete" by MOST people. Therefore there is not a lot of demand and they may take a while to sell.

People who already recharged weapons like this and have lower prices will not sell on GE. 95/99 Summoning95/99 Slayer [hide=This is what you look like when you play RS too long][/hide] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blutters Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 im pretty sure that only new, never been fired bows/used sheilds can be sold on ge. so you may be out of luck.... :wall: Almost had it there - Only Crystal Bows or Shields that have been bought directly from the pair of elves are tradable. If you charged them (which you did...) then they're just as good as the ones you could buy at full price but will be nontradable. Did you really think you'd be able to charge and sell bows and make 500k+ profit each?... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They still are the most efficient range weapon, but they take alot of attention.

vettro Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 Yeah. I tried this once. For a second I thought I was going to be the richest man on the earth. Then I realized that somebody else would have thought of this first. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 Yeah. I tried this once. For a second I thought I was going to be the richest man on the earth. Then I realized that somebody else would have thought of this first. Sorry. Ah well, I thought that as well, and bought 5 seeds. Made for great Exp though. :thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
