flava_sava78 Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 This is a thread about how close you came to becoming rich fast. For me it would have to be either the time an autoer died with a white phat and I almost got it, or the time that I was in the general store and I actually saw a santa hat appear and dissappear right before my eyes(they were only 190k back then, but I was lvl 50 and that was good enough for me). :o Luring master.

Biabf Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 A few months before the pure ess change I traded full guthans for like 285k ess or something like that. I then traded it and got like 150k profit, amazing I thought at the time... Now pure ess is up to like 120 each. I made 150k I could make like 34M. Kick me please. Also before the mask rise, I sold my red for 8Mil. Now 20Mil. Kick me again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would an autoer ware a phat? Yeah, autoers aren't the only ones that die to randoms.. I've lost a red mask to randoms. Well... On topic then. I have extremely bad luck with rares, every time i buy one, the price drops, so I sell it for like 200k less than I bought for. The next day I go on forums and for some reason check the prices, and they've risen up a lot higher than before.... I'm the cursed one, I could control the rare market that way :twisted: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malo2 Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 I collected 12 santas when they were dropped, I was a noob so i sold 3 of em to the general store, and the rest, once i found out thyere were worth alot, for about 50k each. If i had them now I'd get over 100m. Lastfm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Artemis_42 Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Lets see, back when I was a low level, around christmas I remember this one guy trying to sell a Santa. Now, this was when I was an ignorent free worlder. I didn't know what a rare was, or how much one was worth. So thinking that it would be cool to be wearing that sround Christmas time, I traded the guy. Since I didn't know the worth of these, I asked him and he replied he would sell for *150k*. Now here is the kicker, I had that much money one me, however I thought it would be a rip off because it was just a hat. So I declined. So later I told my friend about this (who happened to be a higher level, not any more mind you, I'm at least 10 levels higher now) what happend. Of course then I learned that they were worth a hell of a lot more. Biggest mistake of my rs life. Although, now thinking back on it, he probebly wouldn've tried to scam me.

xpvx Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Some years ago (rsc) i had a full party hat set and sold it. I collected them all thinking i might get more cash if i sell the whole set. I can't even remember what i sold them for but it was less then 500k. Some time after that i decide to quit rs and i don't play for like 3.5 years and now when i get back they are worth hundreds of millons. Thats almost depressing.

Dalcyte Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 ugh...back in 04 christmas, some lucky dude found 12 YELLOW PHATS ON THE GROUND. he sold one for 8m, were 7m at the time. Was walking around fally sayin ha ha. put on his range gear, studded stuff and attacked a gaurd, lagged out i guess and died..lol. its a free for all, and i wind up with 7 yellows and 8m. I gave 2 away to my friends in real life of course, sold one for a bunch of stuff that wasn't close to 7m but got me started. i eventually sold them all, got scammed once and lost a few mill. Then i eventually felt nice and sold the 2 i had left and split the money between some friends (36m ea at the time). I wish i had just transfered the phats to another account and just kept 8m.

A few days later, bought red mask 300k. Prices dropped down to 250k, sold it and prices jumped to 350k. A while later: Bought red mask 1M, prices dropped to 800k, sold it and the prices jumped up again. Decided to keep a santa for a while after buying for 800k, prices dropped down to 750k, as soon as I sold it again, they jumped up to 1.2M. Now you tell me who has the bad luck?
