mujammil Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Title says it. There all such complete idiots. BH comes out you'd expect sharks, pots, weapons all to rise, and so they do for the first day. Therefore i did what most merchers would do and i bought 30k raw sharks and 6k Super strength's. Next day i see that both of these products have plummeted causing a loss of approximately 2m, bear in mind this is jst the first day and they will continue to fall. So IMO we should round up these M@£#%& F#@£&%8! and stick a bomb right in the middle of them. Your opinions on them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EU Slayer Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Don't get mad at merchant clans for your own lack of knowing when to sell off your supplies.. You tried to make a profit off sharks and you failed. Somehow, life goes on.. I don't know which mod did this. I don't know why they did it. If they're looking for money, I can tell them I don't have any as I'm a student. But what I do have are a very particular set of skills; skills I have acquired over 4 years of RuneScape. Skills that I have worked hard for and people like them can't take them away. If they give me my particles back now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for them, I will not pursue them. But if they don't, I will look for them, I will find them, and they won't like what'll happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Den Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Sharks were being merchanted and got dumped the day bounty hunter came out. Just bad timing really. (This is from the cooked sharks, but the same thing happened with raw sharks) You bought yours at the red line: I dont like merchanting clans myself, but you still had a bad timing on when to buy sharks. ........::::: Rainy's YouTube Channel - Rainy's Twitter - Rainy's Facebook - Rainy's DeviantArt - Rainy's Tumblr - Rainy's Tip.It Profile :::::.........

mikeg0477 Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Let me get this straight, you fail at merchanting and now all merchant clans are bad. If you had made millions would the clans be awesome? Sounds like sour grapes to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carantan Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 I hate them when they skyrocket herb seed prices i need for farming :wall: I love them when they skyrocket herb prices I farm =D> Mostly I find them annoying - they seem to merc exactly those items i need at that time :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDayRsDied Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 You can thank the failed GE for these scam clans. The clans are failures, I doubt even 20% of the people in them actually make money.

Laikrob Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Moved to Rants. Laikrob, Tip.It moderator You're accusing me of bigotry, how ironic. It's a nice attempt at argument, but your responses are facile and asinine, if not diatribe. Who's arrogant now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gorofujita Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 You can thank the failed GE for these scam clans. The clans are failures, I doubt even 20% of the people in them actually make money. lol they don't, a while ago I figured I would try and make some money off of these silly merch clans, but failed because no one keeps to the "drop date"/ "dump price" so whatever, it just made me realize that only the people who dictate the item actually make money, because if you look at the item right on the day they announce it, it has already been increasing for the past day or two, implying someone *cough* was buying up all of the available ones. zzz so whatever back to mining rune for me \ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blakdragon39 Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 I hate them also. O.O I'm an average everyday skiller, mostly self sufficient. I don't merch, cause I know from past experience that I fail at it. :P Anyways, there was a time when I was trying to buy snap seeds, because I was raising farming. And know what? It took me THREE DAYS to buy LESS THAN 100 snap seeds. Is that normal? No. Highly inconvenient? Yes! I can't just go pick up snap seeds for myself to use. They are stupidly annoying, and I think everyone should lay off of the OP. Who cares if he made a bad decision in merching? He's complaining about the CLANS and how they mess with the GE and the prices and VERY FEW people benefit and EVERYONE ELSE loses. And there's nothing anyone can do because they aren't even breaking any rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReapMe Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 You jumped on the wagon and tried to buy up an item already rising for a few days lol. Hope you learned something, I've done that before when I was just starting to solo merchant. Not a big deal. What? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gpguy Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Total jerks, but what they're doing is not illegal. Actually, Price manipulation IS Illegal. Sadly, it isn't against the RS Rules, but it is Illegal. You will earn my gratitude if you pick one thing about my post above which you would like me to change and send it to me in a private message.

Calzo Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 LOL so your blaming merch clans for your failure to predict graphs ? Didn't you realise that a lot of people thought OMG BH so bought sharks well in advance expecting them to go up , and then after reaching a peak sold.... THIS WAS NOT THE WORK OF MERCH GROUPS , this was purely anticipation for an update or date. The same happens every haloween / christmas , People expect them to go up so buy 2 weeks before because they believe it will be up by that date ... AS loads of people do this the price skyrockects but then they realise ooo i can sell now and make a profit , inturn the market gets flooded and the price goes down before the actual event.

pkthedreamer Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Haha this happened to me as well. Bought 10k sharks at min 955 ea. Then they were 1013 but wouldn't sell. Next day they were 948 mid. So I sold them all by hand on PVP worlds 1k ea and would have made a profit if I didn't trade 3.5k or so of them for 2 whips. I sold 1 whip for cash and a regen bracelet, and the other for cash and 20 rune boots. Sold bracelet for 255k at min, and still have 18 rune boots, which are just plummeting. Last time I tried to merch was so long ago I forgot how bad I was at it, so I guess I learned my lesson again. 200. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayOxide Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Its sad how people throw around words as insults these days.

Duke_Kaleb Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 I have nothing against the clans per say...but I do hate when they spam their clan chats -.-. Absolutely hate that. Ignore list fills up faster then a pot of coffee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
