Mugunge Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 lol if you had enough you could just influence the price yourself and make a huge load. It would take many mil though. That would be awesome though, lol. A lot of people do have enough to do that, but Jagex introduced limits a long time ago so its impossible to buy an item out on your own now. Before that with the right amount of gp it was easy to buy millions of items in a day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holycannoli Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 I didn't think there were limits like that - the ones I know about wuold be fairly easy to work around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True_Ownage Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Merchanting is only good when it benefits you, and when it doesn't it isn't so good. ;) It's one of the top money making skills in Rs, shame to see though that a few of the merchanters have no skills or a total below 1400. Imo, Clan/Group Merchanting is ftl, but solo is ftw and I see it as a personal skill, but some people take it too far with manipulating the prices. If merchanters did more with their money instead of show it off then they'd be more looked up to, instead of being pitified by other people.

Master_Smither Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 It depends. If it's a clan buying out items forcing a rise then they are just full of fail. If it's riding the flow of an item with natural price changes they thats means your very smart and have merchanting skill and I am fine with it. So price manipulation=failure and is sad Riding a flow of naturalchanges=epic win Click for My Blog670th to 99 Smithing July 21st, 07 |743rd to 99 Mining November 29th, 07 | 649th to 99 Runecrafting May 18th, 08 | 29,050th to 99 Defence October 20th, 08 | 20,700th to 99 Magic November 8, 08 | 47,938th to 99 Attack December 19, 08 | 37,829th to 99 Hitpoints December 24, 08 | 68,604th to 99 Strength February 4, 09 | 27,983rd to 99 Range February 9, 09 | 9,725th to 99 Prayer June 8, 09 | 6,620th to 99 Slayer December, 12 09 | 4,075th to 99 Summoning December, 28 09 | 3,551th to 99 Herblore February 24, 10 | 3,192th to 99 Dungeoneering November 11, 10 | 146,600th to 99 Cooking December 29th, 10 | 11,333rd to 99 Construction June 7th, 11 | 16,648th to 99 Farming August 1st, 11 | 19,993th to 99 Crafting August 2nd, 11 | 89,739th to 99 Woodcutting Janurary 1st, 12 | 55,424th to 99 Fishing May 9th, 12| 60,648th to 99 Firemaking May 12th, 12 | 16666th to 99 Agility May 17th, 2012 | 24476th to 99 Hunter June 1st, 2012 | 57,881st to 99 Fletching June 1st, 2012 | All 99s June 1st, 2012 | 3183th to 120 Dungeoneering July 24th, 2012 | 2341st to 2496 Total level July 24th, 2012 | Completionist Cape July 24th, 2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aegistitan Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 solo merching is much better than clan merchanting to be honest. Also, price manipulators are just sad. pk vid 1^ includes rushing vesta ags dclaws zuriel statius huge k0s pro zerkpure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwreeTak Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 If it is just for you to earn money GE merchating is awesome. Much better and more effective for everyone than standing outside the Varrock bank in W1 and W2, shouting the same thing over and over again.

Drakolord7 Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Merchanting - good Manipulation - bad Its as simple as that. The people who call themselves "merchants" who are really manipulators should be banned. Real merchants who just buy low, sell high, and invest without manipulation are fine by me Join Future Update News!
