[hide=original post]After comfortably playing on and off, whilst making alittle bit of money with MTK and slayer i decided to try and merch a bit...

 

 

 

When the G/E came out i was doing quite well with raw fish and runes, but decided to go for some bigger items recently.

 

... to cut a long story short the whole market is completely corrupt with merch clans now, and i was oblivious to the fact some items i was investing in were being risen by these clans.

 

 

 

To cut my losses i traded most of these items with unstrung bow junk, to try and retain as much value as possible.

 

 

 

Now when i've had small amounts of junk (like under 1mil) i can usually get rid of it without losing any money by just paying cash + 10% junk for any item that anyone is selling. These items would then just sell of the G/E, so effectively i'd just sold these unstrung bows for cash...

 

 

 

Now i'm a bit more aware of the clans and prices, i'm more cautious - and i'm never going to merchant again. However the only things people seem to be selling are items that are crashing/just about to crash. --> so i can no longer use this method to get rid of my junk.

 

 

 

Everything came at a bad time really, i've already suffered 2 horrible d/cing deaths this year, and then spend around 14mil on skilling. Obviously my original intention was to make money by merchanting to get my cash pile growing a bit.

 

Howing this merchanting fail has left me so bankrupt that i can't even afford a godsword at the moment to lend out for 24 hours at 300k.

 

Those were my only ideas...

 

 

 

Any ideas?/Anyone wanna buy some beautiful examples of hand crafted unstrung bows?/Any advice?

I've decided to get rid of junk by selling it with items in high demand (such as raw bird meat which is 73 each on the G/E but ~400 each street value)

 

 

 

What are the best items to do this with?

 

 

 

Thanks

Get a ton of drop potential and do the pvp trick.

 

 

 

I normally wouldn't suggest this but you may lose money or you may get rich from this. Hell, some people buy your junk just so you'll die to them.

Buy a load of shards from players at 17 to 19gp each (effectively losing 6 to 8gp in junk per shard) and then sell the shards in the GE.

 

They do sell but there slow as hell.

I was thinking about shards, but i currently don't have a decent amoun of cash to start up with.

 

Well i'll try it at least

If you go to aviansies for about an hour or two that should give you enough cash to get you started if you find yourself struggling.

I think i'm ok with cash actually at the moment, had more than i thought

 

 

 

And btw i have around 12mil in bows :?

 

 

 

Another thing i'm thinking of is something like raw bird meat. I reckon i could shift 400k of junk an hour doing this...

 

Are there any other items like this?

...Are there?

Edited title and post a tad

If i've got too much junk I just buy shards for 20 each and use them for summoning. However with 12m in bows alone that would take 48,000,000 cash. Honestly if you want to move that much junk with decent speed you'll have to get lucky from a clue with 3a or get yourself a sigil.

PVP trick. 3a or sigil will take years, shards are basically impossible to sell. No other options.
