should i buy an SGS before i need it?

Featured Replies

ive been wanting an SGS for a long time and now looks like a good time to buy. i cant be sure but i think the price is just gonna go up from here. money isnt an issue, its just that i dont wanna spend most of it on something i really wont need for another 5 - 10 attack and stregnth levels (both 75 at the moment). should i buy the sword early while the price is good, or just wait it out? i know for a fact ill have significantly more money by the time i reach the point where a godsword would be more useful

A single question: Do you need the money right now?

 

For example, if you are training buyable skills, you may need access to your cashpile. In this case, you NEED to wait to buy, otherwise you can't train the skill. Otherwise, however, make your best judgment. If you don't think it's going to fall, it can only help, right?

i dont need the money now, so thats more reason to buy

Buy it, there is no reason sgs will fall in price, in fact, there's no reason any of them will. And It can only help, even at your current levels, it's still free hp/prayer.

i dont see a reason for them to fall either, but they have been for the past few weeks or so. and i cant figure out why. for all i know they wont go up now (although i doubt they wont)

Its normal for items to fall and rise, that is what happens in a free market. If you look at the Stock Exchange you can see this happening in the real world. Things like these usually bounce back up, and some times continue to rise for a while before going back down.

This.

 

All things naturally fall at some point, but they can, and most of the time will bounce back up, even higher. Rinse & repeat.

i understand that prices will fluctuate due to supply and demand. although i feel its much more on the demand side in the runescape economy since supply is purely drops. and i also know that with important updates prices will change, such as the deflation in the times of pvp before artifacts, and the heavy inflation after that update when people had more money for items with significantly lower supply. but i just dont see what caused the recent deflation this past month. i know its bound to happen, but all godswords, SS, DFS, dragon claws, they all were falling until this week, and i dont know what triggered the fall and now rise again. was it just coincidence?

It was a natural fall, and when it happened, the idiots who care too darn much about their precious pixel money sell off those items, which cause it to crash further. This is when the smart people realize what's going on, buy the items at the lowered price, and the return to normal and begin to increase again.
