Lode Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 Last thing I knew, red masks were 8.5mil. Now I see them being bought for 12mil-13mil. What caused such a sudden jump?

hmmsk Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 Inflation + Mass Ban, but i think they're a bit lower than they were before, anyone confirm? 18/22 skills at or better than 60.1300+ skill total.Barrows:Torag's Helm x2, Guthan's Helm, Guthan's Warspear, Dharok's Greataxe, died to dharok, Guthan's Platebody, Ahrim's Hood. All in a total of 104 runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lode Posted February 19, 2006 Author Share Posted February 19, 2006 No, no, it can't be the mass ban, because they were 8.5mil last week, I'm sure of that, and mask sets were 16mil, but if a red mask is 12mil now, I guess mask sets have risen in price too.

Lode Posted February 19, 2006 Author Share Posted February 19, 2006 Ok, sorry for double post, but, I was walking around with a red mask, when this guy came to me who wanted to buy it. he: how much for your red mask? me: not for sale he: 8.5M me: aren't they like 13mil now? he: 14mil he: 15m he: 18m he: 20m comon last offer me: not for sale he: omfg!!!!! So I'm just wondering, was this guy kidding, or are they all of a sudden 20M now?

Duke_Freedom Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 Checked this morning, and they seem to be 13mil.. All masks went up though. Seeing they were undervaluated compared to phats anyway, it's not that strange. The value of my bank at its height. Estimated value at the peak of the rares market: 250 billion+.Most likely the largest trade in RuneScape ever. Estimated value at the peak of the rares market: 70 billion+.

statgod2 Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 Red masks are like 15m in f2p now. I dont think it was because of the ban, i just think its because of noobs raising prices. If you sold yours and regret it: dont worry, they will go back down If you already have one and want to sell to make profit: I recommend selling it within a week. If you bought one for 15m: HAHA!.

FooK-A-Ji Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 look, you people need to learn a few things, stop playing the markets so much, the market will play you. just sit tight with your rares, i've sit tight with all my rares since every single drop through the ages. 2 years ago someone would ask i.e how many santas i had, i would answer, and they would say "why dont you sell em?" and i go "no". now I could have sold em and made around 25 mil than, a substantial amount, now I can sell them and make 450-500 mil off them, also a substantial amount, but what about in 2 years time again? think what you want, but time doesnt lie, and time has already revealed alot of truths, such as the FACT that rares CANNOT deflate in price without going DOUBLE UP a little later.

MD666 Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Fook, I do respect you and all, but when does the sitting end? When the game crumbles? When the rares market crashes? This may be what you have done but if I were you I would make a rule like, when it reaches 1b profit you will sell or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This may be what you have done but if I were you I would make a rule like, when it reaches 1b profit you will sell or something. Echoing my thoughts exactly. When do you call it a day and cash your rares in? If you continually keep hold of them, and don't ever sell them, they have no value if you see what I mean. Obviously they have value, but if you never sell them they don't...

What Fook means is that rares will always go higher then any peak they currently reached and thus it is always "smarter" to hang on to it in the long run. But like you said, if you never sell it, you'll never 'be rich' either. Some people, like pure merchants don't care about that as their goal is being as rich as they can (and keeping rares helps with that)... But for skillers who would also love to use the cash on their skills, it may be an idea to sell them very slowly throughout the years. The value of my bank at its height.

Lode Posted February 21, 2006 Author Share Posted February 21, 2006 My goal isn't being rich, but having those cool looking items to wear. I know that if I sell one, I'll never be able to buy it back because they rise. So I never sell them.

noobnoob Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 Rare are about the only good for investment in rs Invest into them with your spare cash If you can time the market and sell them at the right time, you win. If you have to sell them when you are urgently in need of money, good luck to you. Mask is prefered to phat as i see more potential in profit. I might be wrong but mask are more affordable to most player and reselling is much easier. I have played this game for 3 year and got 99 smithing. I have also managed to invest into 8 mask set. Not too bad for a pure f2p huh ? Buying runite ore 11.6k and runite bar 13.6kA 100% f2p who believe in hard work and not begging Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lode Posted February 21, 2006 Author Share Posted February 21, 2006 This is strange, ever since the price increased, I see a lot more people walking around with red masks, as if more people buy it even though it's more expensive. Or maybe they just got popular for some reason which made them more expensive, but I wonder why since it's not halloween.
