How much do Rares/expensive items cost in a general store?

Featured Replies

If somebody sold something like let's say a Blue partyhat to a general store, could you buy it back for like 5gp?

 

 

 

How about like an AGS, could you buy it back for like 1m GP?

i'm sure its like 50% of the price you sold for.

no and no, they changed this a while back. You would be able to sell a rare to the store for like 1gp, but the shop price on it would be the ge price I believe.

Yep, when the g.e and restricted trade was introduced, items in general stores will never go below grand exchange prices.

 

 

 

But since the shop update a few weeks ago, i'm not even sure if you can see items in general stores that other people sell.

You can no longer see items that other people sell in the general store. You and ONLY you are able to see the items that you have sold to the general store.

lol I did it too, it was really good profit then.

 

 

 

anyway, it's too bad about not being able to get partyhats for 5gp. But I guess if they did that people would just camp at a general store hoping somebody sells something like that lol.

Right after free trade was removed, you were not able to even sell rares to a store.

 

Before that they were a few gp.

 

 

 

Now shops are totally independant.

Same. I remember seeing 500 deaths, trying to buy all of them (while running all the way to Varrock for the money since there was no bank in Lumby yet and I didn't know there was a place called "Draynor") and finding out I didn't have the money.
