Selling Purple Phat for 1.1B

created by Bear Dawg 14 06-Aug-2010 20:43:30

by MissPhatGirl

 

still not one offer of 1.1b, most trying to haggle

I don't think it was as big of a steal as you thought blade

 

I saw another offer on purple for only 895m. I don't think 1B is considered a "steal" like you guys said.

 

 

Depends on the junk, TBH.

Um what? I'd say owning nearly 5% of the Santa market is infact a huge hoard, insanely huge. Of all the people that play rs, 1 person owns nearly 5% of a particular item, massive.

 

And I'm sure if she chose to she would affect the Santa market.

Meh I had a mistype, I meant to say .5%

 

If 2,000 santas is only 0.5% of the market, then you're implying there are 400,000 santas out there.

 

In his 2006 tip.it times article, Duke Freedom estimates that there are 15,000 santas in the game. It's possible he was off by 1-5x, but there is no way he was off by 30x.

Id like some help.

 

 

I have 50-60m cash and im going inactive from rs for 6months/forever and id like to know which rare/expensive item could/should i buy that would atleast not drop in price(meaning to like to half of its current prise).

 

Would be awesome if the item would actually rise in the next few years so if i were to come back then atleast i had made some profit while being away.

santa is the cheapest rare for 71 mill.. get enough then buy a santa and you could probably quit and come back and it might be around 100m solid

Santas were dropped in the Christmas 2002, when RS had enough server capacity for around 16,000 people to be on at the same time. That over 24 hours could produce around 200,000-300,000 or more Santas being dropped (Assuming an average RS player plays for an hour to 2 hours a day)

But probably not even half of the santas dropped at that time are still ingame/on active accounts.

I guess a small fraction of those santas are still in the hands of retired players. This may cause supply to sink a bit

but since retired players may come back anytime, their supplies can also increase. which is why

discontinued items are not always the safest investment.

With that much money, you won't be able to afford any rares. But assuming you probably got some items leftover (you may need like 12m amount), sell everything you have since you're quitting anyways.

Santas are currently the cheapest rare so I would go with that if you want some money leftover. But there are more santas than any other rare in the market afaik, so

if you want a more safe investment, go with a green mask.

So apparently Iron / Steel dragon masks are going for Red partyhats. I wonder how hard the masks are to snipe, better hit this before they're too common. I'd trade it right off for a Divine, honestly.

 

Wow, Red Phats. I wonder what Frost/Mith goes for. And if you got a Red Hat, you could downgrade to Green or even Yellow and then trade that for Divine. It would be a free whatever it takes to upgrade Yellow/Green to Red.

It's actually only Steels and Irons that are that high, apparently.

 

 

I would trade for divine simply because I could not afford the shield and a Phat lol

Wow indeed. How do you even make a trade like that without having hundreds of millions in junk? Who has hundreds of millions of junk? :(

Several people.

 

I can't believe that any sensible person would do that trade though...I *seriously* doubt that these masks will last up to a year if even a few months like crowns(or was it weeks? I forget).

I attempted to snipe a green blue and red dragon mask in a 15 second update, none of them were bought.

 

I understand that metal dragon masks would go for phats because of their rarity combined with their freshness in the game.

I would estimate that around a year they would slowly go down below market value.

So you believe that the current street values will last for a year?

PM me if you snipe one LoL, I'd take you up on that.

 

And it really depends on how rare they really are, I've seen very few compared to the other masks.

No, I'm saying that it'll take about a year for them to gradually reach their market value. Right now, the higher dragon

masks are approximately worth about a yellow (despite the previous post saying that it was worth a red phat).

I've also looked up nice statistics on how rare the masks are and it seems that mithril dragon (the rarest mask)

is close to the rarity of getting 3rd age.
