Ollyc3 Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 People do buy them but the street price of them is in the tens of millions (way off from the exchanges prices). They are pretty rare to get off the exchange so expect to buy them with alot of junk. 2376/2376 total achieved - May 2009 Retired Dec 2009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dire_Wolf Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Dont think it's easier to sell one: considering you can earn tons millions if you have junk. But if u dont...ur losing out on selling it: but i would do it anyway but a pity as people would offer tons cash ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id say its easier to sell one then buy one. :P ........::::: Rainy's YouTube Channel - Rainy's Twitter - Rainy's Facebook - Rainy's DeviantArt - Rainy's Tumblr - Rainy's Tip.It Profile :::::.........

dano123 Posted October 3, 2008 Author Share Posted October 3, 2008 im confused, im trying to buy a bat mask for 2.8M on GE. and others on the forum are selling them for like 16M? and what is everyone talking about junk? (ps i havent played in over a year, need filling in) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dire_Wolf Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Aha that's not what i meant lol. I meant if you got one: you wouldn't get the fully price if u sold it. Example: i have no junk...i do a clue and i get a mask. Sell in ge=cheap price Sell as junk=earn tons millions... But to be honest...i don't do junks nowdays. It's stupid. Junk: Items that does not sell in ge or is considered useless cause people do not buy them. Example: Nails (Sure they are good for construction), but i got 140 rune nails from clues. I give you them since they are "Junk", and you give me cash for it. Example....player 1 sells mask (price of mask is 2m)..but on forums it cost 20m... Player 2 buys it....so player 2 gives 20m in cash....and player 1 gives 18m in junk. This way they get to sell it for max price. But getting junk is a problem and stupid.

(ps i havent played in over a year, need filling in) Well firstly, good luck on buying lol. Junk is items that wont sell on the exchange and the person doesnt need.. So basically maple longbows (U), Iron Plates, Summon pouches or various other items.. They add this into the trade with the mask to bump up the price of the whole deal. You are basically paying higher for just the mask, as the junk is useless to you aswell. 2376/2376 total achieved - May 2009 Retired Dec 2009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dano123 Posted October 3, 2008 Author Share Posted October 3, 2008 im basically asking, should i buy one for 2.8M in the GE if i can find one there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladycai Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Mhmm, I was lucky enouugh to get a mask ... but could only sell for 3m +junk because I didn't have enough time to collect junk. 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...
Ollyc3 Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 im basically asking, should i buy one for 2.8M in the GE if i can find one there? If you want the item then of course? It's not like you will have any trouble selling back if you get bored of it afterwards (if you are actually lucky enough to get one in the first place) 2376/2376 total achieved - May 2009 Retired Dec 2009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dano123 Posted October 3, 2008 Author Share Posted October 3, 2008 well im planning on making money on this. so lets say i do buy it from GE at 2.8M, how do i sell it in junk? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollyc3 Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 You'd have to have junk already in the first place to make money effectively.. Otherwise you'll be spending hours cutting maples into unstrungs or some other method to collect junk, whereas in that time you could've made the money anyway. 2376/2376 total achieved - May 2009 Retired Dec 2009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dano123 Posted October 3, 2008 Author Share Posted October 3, 2008 ok, so lets say i have the mask i got from GE, then i buy maple long (u) as my junk, is that right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollyc3 Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Well thats not gonna make you any actual profit is it mate, because you bought the junk you're throwing in with the trade. You have to accumulate your own junk yourself, or get it from a past deal that involved junk. 2376/2376 total achieved - May 2009 Retired Dec 2009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dano123 Posted October 3, 2008 Author Share Posted October 3, 2008 OH! this all has to do with the stupid trade meter? right? like i cant sell the mask for 10m if it wont let me gain more than 10k? i get it... thanks guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dano123 Posted October 3, 2008 Author Share Posted October 3, 2008 ok, my last question. if you use this junk trading system, wouldnt it mean that youre ending up not making such a huge profit? i buy the thing for 2.8M make lets say 5000 maple long (u) which lets say is 7.2M they guy offers 10M....i didnt make any merchanting profit. i worked for that money right?

wolfmon56 Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Ya its definitely NOT easy to get them out of the GE Step 1: Offer RIGHT after an update. Step 2: a person who doesn't know what they're worth put them in the GE. Step 3: Make junk sell them on street for a lot more. I got Cat, wolf, bat, and peng. Have a waiting offer on cat, but making junk takes awhile :wall: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triquos Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 The only reason animal masks are so high is because people just decided to make them another one of those items with an invisible price tag in the tens of millions ;) When animal masks became lendable, people were willing to sell for pure cash and even sell for junk. Once people started to realise that merchanters were buying them all up though (a couple hours later) people stopped selling em and held onto em. If merchers didn't buy them all back up at that time and didn't keep the demand up for them, they woulda dropped like top hats did. From 5M down to 700k in time. I'm really over all these items with their invisible price tags, I hope jagex ruin junk trading eventually and their true prices will be revealed :roll: So as the future is concerned, watch out for new items that'll become the victim of this on going garbage :x That's my 2 cents \ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People would easily buy for 10m more than its worth. Thats 10m in 10 hours. Thats double crafting nats at old prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
