jpd2 Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 I just saw one sold for 1.8. People a predicting that it will be less then 1m soon (within a few months). Are you happy or angry at the price drop? I like it. I dont have a whip yet and this will make it easier to get such an awesome wep. Post your thoughts. No flaming.

hellbellz Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 It was gonna happen eventually, and most things will be this way, hopefully rares also. More coming in the economy every day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePurpleHaze Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 Personally I think it sucks. I had bought one for what was then a cheap 2.6 mil, the next week I see them startign to drop below even that. Really made me mad because that was literally all my money.

SirHartlar Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 I am not really bothered, I paid 2.4m for mine and I would have rather paid the extra 600k than wait for it to drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redserpent4 Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 im not so thrilled, mine cost me 6 mill + back when i bought it. It's the best weapon in the game and it would just be stupid for the price to drop below a mill. below 3 is stupid in my opinion anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tefda Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 I'm happy with it. Maybe I can buy it one day :P . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordSoultar Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 I don't like it, but there is nothing I can do. I payed 5.7m for my first whip just over a year ago, so I've lost almost 4m on it. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpd2 Posted September 23, 2006 Author Share Posted September 23, 2006 The reason for the drop was more and more people have 85 slayer and more whips are coming in the the economy. Rune 2h's were once 1.5mil and now they are a lowly 50k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckeyemange Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 Its supply and demand... Abbysmal (sp?) demons will keep spawning, and therefor keep dropping their whips. As more whips come, there not as rare, so people won't pay as much for them. Rares are a different story. There will never be more added, and as people die with them on or get banned, the vanish forever. The numbers get smaller and smaller, and the number of people who want them will pay more and more.

SanFranciscoGiants Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 Im not to thrilled...i payed 4.3m about 8 months ago for mine and it was much harder for me to get back then :? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artemis_42 Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 I don't see the whip falling much lower than 1.5mil. There comes a time when camping out at abyssal demons will no longer be a way of making good amouts of money. Because of the lower price, I think the drive for some people to train for several months to get 85 slayer will be greatly diminished. And because of less whips coming into the market and the increasing demand as more people either get the money and/or levels to weild one, the price will platue out. Just my opinion, I could be very wrong about this, but I just want to make a post representing those who have 85 slayer. An opinion which may not be shared by everyone, but that seems to be a common belief with those i've met up in canifis tower.

Thats exactly what i think is going to happen, i personally wouldnt camp out at abbysals for days for less that 1.5mill. Jagex will release more slayer weapons and armour eventually though so thats why im training slayer still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cocacolabottle Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 Hate it.. I've still got an extra one from the Abbies from a week ago hoping that they would rise again..

dogfever Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 Anything that is a drop will eventually reach an equilibrium market price. Whips have been falling continually since a few days after they were released. The only reason they cost so much in the first place was they were good and rare. They will eventually reach an equilibrium price like everything else (d2h, d wc axe etc.) after that they will move less. I paid more than 1.8 for mine but I knew they would drop, generally speaking anything which isn't a truly rare object (phat, santa etc.) is a poor long term investment. In short, I don't care if I lost money, I like my whip and I wasn't expecting to sell at a profit. So no the price drop doesn't bother me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
