I need torstol for making overlord (I 'll use boost), and the bouns xp weekend is nearly over, but how come it doesn't crash? Is it because mreo ppl can make ovl after the weekend so they r buying for it? Do you think they will crash some times later back to its original price?

Probably keeping it for next weekend or something.

 

That or everyones used them and theres none left to sell.

Why next weekend?

 

They most likely won't start crashing till AFTER the DEW, people will still be training herblore until the very end, since it's very cost efficient doing it during the DEW

Honestly, to hazard a guess, I'd say it's because so many people achieved the level to make overloads in such a short time. The market hasn't coped with the new demand with an increased supply.

 

But I could be completely wrong, and most likely am. I'm no runescape economist.

One thing's for sure, when the market gets flooded again, they will crash HARD.

 

Since most people have actually made a fair few ovls by now, there will be MUCH less demand for them.

This seems like a perfectly sensible explanation to me. I think we saw a similar phenomenon on the previous BXPW.

more people can make them, so more people want them. :thumbup:

I don't see the correlation in you getting the level to make overloads and torstols crashing, sorry. But if you look at it from an intelligent standpoint, alot of torstol was removed from the market, but at the same time, alot more people need torstol now. So realistically, in a situation where the demand has rose, and the supply has dried up, the basic principles of economics tell you that.....

 

I think you can go from there :twisted:

That's pretty much exactly what I said, so I don't see the need to insinuate that the way I phrased it wasn't 'intelligent'.

In the long run, Torstol will still go down.

 

Current torstol prices will hold for a while though. Remember that torstols are really hard to obtain. 2x weekend basically drained all the torstols in the market, so the GE has no "inventory" of torstols as it should. There's a very short supply for them at the moment.

Demand has risen for torstols as more people can make overload potions now. That's why. They couldn't make them before. :)

I don't think he directed that at you, I think he was just answering the post. :unsure:

Not to mention Torstols aren't exactly an easy herb to acquire...
