Hitman247m Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 I payed 17m for my first whip, only to get hacked and lose it :wall: Then, I payed 11m for my current one, so I'd really like it if people stop complaining about a small 1-2m drop, these whips have been a cash hole for me :wall: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dabestpk 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 lol if u think thats bad, back to the first 2 days the maul came out, I paid 7mill for 1 :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wakka102 Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 I enjoyed it while it lasted and took full advantage of it while it lasted (you can see from my whip drops). I knew this would happen eventually so I spent most of my time killing them in hopes of getting as much benefit from it as I could, and i did just that. I now have better and quicker ways of making money since whips are at 1.8m so I'm not too conserned with it anymore. It was fun while it lasted but it all ends eventually. I'm just glad it happened :D . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Severation Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 I'm looking forward to the point in which whips are at the lowest price. It's interesting to think how, and why, it happens, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markup Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 lucky me, sold mine for 2.65mil yay sorry for all of you who had a big loss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deciever2 Posted September 23, 2006 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. I hopes that means that a dragon 2h will soon be maybe 200k :) Dragon Drops: D spear x 2, D skirt, D half-shield, D axe, D 2hBarrows Rewards: Ahrims hood, Karil's Coif, half key x 6, D med, torags legs, veracs flail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 :wall: The chance of wips going higher is like the chance of this smily going through this wall.So all you noobs that are :pray: for a wip might be able to aford one some day. I dont mind the wips going down i bought mine like 3 months ago at 3.5 mill so i didnt lose to much,but for the ppl that got wips right when they came out(when they were over 10 mill) they have lost so much cash. I espect almost all players in rs to have not one but 2 wips with in the next year if they are dedicated to playing rs. But ppl dont :ohnoes: :ohnoes: :ohnoes: soon jagex will make a new weapon that is rare and worth $$$ :thumbsup: When in faldore do as the dwares do.Mine =).Proud Owner of the Coal Cart Co.:High prices for the miner:Low prices for the buyer.(Temperarelly closed/Pls dont pm me untill i reopen.)

TheAncient Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 Qhips are dropping for the same reason that rares are rising. Supply and demand is inevitable, my friend. And if it weren't for those factors, I wouldn't be so rich right now. Ever wanted to find street prices of RS items?

frogmite Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 My first was 39M o.o Seems like such an age ago (considering 39M was worth considerably more than it is now). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bestsob 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 A rune scimi is arguably the best F2P weapon there is, and it cost 25k? I'm sure it cost upwards of a million when it came out? But then again, I wasn't playing back then (somone correct me if I'm wrong?). Drops are bound to happen.

0Firzen0 Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 i dont think the drop in price is what we are upset at... because you can just as easily make money as you can lose it (getting a random d left half, or guthan spear from barrows). what i think everybody is mad at, is that the best weapon in the game that used to be a status symbol as well as an awesome weapon will soon be available and offordable to noobs everywhere. the solution? make an npc that will buy and sell whips for a set price, so that you will be loseing money if you sell it for anything less. this will preserve the good name of whips, and keep jagex from haveing to constantly make new "rare" weapons check out my achievments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_tallest1 Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 Still puzzled by the preoccupation with whip prices. I bought mine for 5.5M I think and it dropped nearly 1M the next day. What else will whip prices do but fall? It's their job. Just enjoy the ride and watching all the people complaining about it on the way. EDIT: i dont think the drop in price is what we are upset at... because you can just as easily make money as you can lose it (getting a random d left half, or guthan spear from barrows). what i think everybody is mad at, is that the best weapon in the game that used to be a status symbol as well as an awesome weapon will soon be available and offordable to noobs everywhere. the solution? make an npc that will buy and sell whips for a set price, so that you will be loseing money if you sell it for anything less. this will preserve the good name of whips, and keep jagex from haveing to constantly make new "rare" weapons That has got to be one of the most elitist things I've read in a while. I thought the point of a lvl req was to limit who could use it. Ability to have vasts amount of money to buy one or not means nothing about a character or their noobiness. I suppose I really noobed up full guthans and a whip at lvl 86 when I had it and most lvl 86's didn't have that. :roll: 571st to 99 Fm Nov. 4 '06 - 315th to 99 Crafting Mar. 3 '07 - 3410th to 99 Fishing Sept. 18 '0726378th to 99 Cooking Oct. 16 '07 -.- 99 Thieving Dec. 29 '07 - 1343rd to 99 Farming June 5 '081807th to 99 Agility Nov. 8 '08 - 3094th to 99 Smithing Feb. 14 '092012 total - 91 combat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thatonedude Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 Well it seems like everything that I buy that cost over 2mil is dropping in price. I bought full veracs,dh, torags and a whip about 2 months ago. In all ive lost millions, but i don't really care..they are still just as good as when I bought them. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
