It was a good run red phat.

 

 

 

I guess you'll make a bit more GP immediately off those claws and AGS but other than that they will crash hard soon. Terrible trade IMO because partyhats can be used as leverage in a lot of trades in the future. But then again you may want that AGS more than a paper hat.

I see it this way. Phats are sure to crash again. I rather take a nice payout now then have to risk getting stuck with a massive piece of junk. I've made a good ~20-30mil off it rising already and those 5 weapons will net me another 20mil or so. I'm content.

Did I get lucky or is this the start of another crash (bought about 3 minutes after I offered.)

 

 

 

Crashing. Lots of sellers on the RSB.

 

 

 

Or it could continue its slowly rise. I honestly don't think the ags is going to permanently crash. The general trend WILL be upwards till the 75k trick gets nerfed.

 

 

 

Anyways, I want an arcane, but I'm at 86m(excluding bandos tassets).

They will keep rising until the demand starts to go down and people start to sell because the price got high enough. They won't crash though, this time they'll remain the top money holding item in the game like they used to me.

When do you think they will even out?

They won't. For the last 7 years they've always been going up for the most part.

After the removal of staking and pking many players quit and when they did they sold off all their partyhats causing a massive increase in supply and a decrease in demand of partyhats to stake causing them to fall. They were frozen in the GE from then on because the buy amount for an update was too large. Jagex then manually adjusted partyhat prices and changed the limits along with the drop rise margin to 1% each update. So they did a slow fall(with a few buyouts inbetween) until 3rd age started to crash and then merchants needed a new item. It was then that they got bought out and 3rd age dumped. This is what you see today and that was a crash course in p hat history after the grand exchange.

O i hope jagex makes a really bad pvp update and makes a bunch of people quit lol.

 

 

 

Don't worry -- they'll dip again eventually. But if you want one to keep, you might as well go ahead and buy it -- you won't be sorry in the long run.

 

 

 

2 reasons prices drop:

 

- Someone gets back in the game after a period and sells them (extra demand)

 

- People start to sell them, A LOT OF THEM!

 

 

 

3 reasons prices rise:

 

- More people getting rich due to more people reaching higher levels, causing extra demand.

 

- Inflation causing price risings

 

- The ever increase of ways to make money.

 

- More players entering the game

 

 

 

Reason for prices to drop are incidental. Reasons for prices to rise are long-term and forever to be there.

 

So as an investment, they are worth it!

I'll give you a blue partyhat(well, transfer enough money to you) if partyhats never crash again.

 

 

 

Not crashing? everything crashes. EVERYTHING. Because, funnily enough, crashing makes money, and money is what people are after. Partyhats, as a jagex'es genius plan, are a very bad investment- top merchants could make much more than the louzy 0.5% percent by trading other items, and thus partyhats are bound to crash, but go around in very large circles.

They won't crash and be terrible junk like they were after the GE was released and what not. They will drop after they start to stablize but they will forever be an item to hold GP because of the 2.147B limit which a lot of merchants have already. Also the percent per update is 1% not .5. Your right that everything will go down but whether it crashs hard is a totally different thing. Hard crashs would be like 3rd age which partyhats won't do.

Partyhat prices do not update every day, so the 0.5% is an average of change for all of them. And yes- with 1% price changes, it's hard for them to become really terrible junk, because, lets face it, losing 1% a day is much more convenient than losing 5%. As an item to hold money in? there are much better items for those purposes that can be transfered into money more conveniently at all times(partyhats are not spots of money- they either are bought out or junk, both conditions meaning no fast money). For the whole, considering any item that has been bought out is bound to crash, they will never be stable(stable as in atleast 70% controlled by people who do not merchant).

Where do you get your definition of stable? I always thought stable means the price will stay around the same price with some natural drops and rises like most armour and weapons do. Yes they can be stable and they are approaching that stage right now. I'd like to know of this magical item that can be bought and sold for the amount you payed for it. Partyhats have potential for long term profit that's why they are so good and that's why merchants hold onto them in their banks. Profit over time and holding 2B+=epic win. I don't see partyhats becoming big junk, they may fall but the demand from normal players will always be there because they are a frequent goal item.

 

 

 

Only time will tell however ;)
