Question about the Trade Limits

Featured Replies

OK, so I think I've heard that you can only buy so many of any item from the G.E. within a certain amount of time. If this is true what is the amount and the time frame?

 

 

 

EDIT-

The amount of how much you can buy depends on the item, and I think the time frame is 4 hours.

 

Does anyone know how to figure out what the amount is for any item, and can anyone verify that it's 4 hours?

 

 

 

It is 4 hours.

 

 

 

Also, what item are you looking to buy?

 

OK, it seems confirmed to be a 4 hour time frame

 

I haven't picked an item yet, I'm looking to try out merchanting and wanted to know the limits on it.

 

How will I know how many of an item I can buy/sell when I start picking items to merchant?

It's 4 hours but it depends on what item you are looking to buy.

 

 

 

Runes: 25K/4 hours

 

Bow:10K/4 hours

 

High level weapon/armours: 10/4 hours

 

 

 

Thats some of the basics. I had a thread that was deleted when the forums were changed and all but forgot to save a backup. It had every limit #-o

So will I just have to wait and see which items fall into which category or is there a system to it?

I recently bought 1k battlestaves, and they are limited to 100 every 4 hours.

 

 

 

What I gather from reading on various sites is that the trade limits are determined by several factors, including:

 

 

 

how often an item is bought

 

how often an item is used up

 

how expensive an item is

 

 

 

not necessarily in that order. Basically, Jagex wants the limit on stuff like runes, ores, bars, and arrows to be functionally unlimited for people actually using the items, which it is. But to prevent excessive amounts of more expensive/less used stuff from being traded, ostensibly to limit real world trading and/or price manipulation. Which I guess would be OK, if their choice of limits made more sense.

It's 4 hours but it depends on what item you are looking to buy.

 

 

 

Runes: 25K/4 hours

 

Bow:10K/4 hours

I'm pretty sure bows are 100/4 hours

I'm retired from Runescape due to my really bad connection, maybe coming back soon

The time frame is exactly 4 hours.

 

 

 

Generally, the number of buying finished products are 25k in number, raw materials 10k, and armors 100.
