Dragonwizerd Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 well, i've decided to fletch and sell yew longs for 550 each... now here's my question... should i pour 10 mil into this and buy enough bow strings and yew logs to make 22-25k yew longs and sell 550 each (makes about 3 mil proffit) or should i buy 40k yew logs (250 each) and pick 40k flax and spin that and make and sell the bows (550 each)... now the second option turns out a proffit of 12 mil, but you have to think... (here's another question) how long would it take to pick and spin 40k flax? so here's my final question... which would make the most amount of money in the least amount of time ex. of what i mean: could i do choice 1 4 times before i could do choice 2? Yayyyyyy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoD Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 the other thing you have think about is how fast you can sell the yew bows. if you cant sell the fast enough, you've wasted quite a ton of money lost rights to my dark red text >:( 12/20/06 - QUEST CAPE OF ACHIEVEMENTBarrows sets: guthan, verac, dharok, maybe ahrim eventually <- lost to a hacker whole stole everything of worth from my bank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xKing_Natex Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 yew longs + high alch = 700+ GP, Its nearly impossible to sell 25k yew bows unless your supplying much of rnescape lvl 70 and lower fletchers, It would be more worth it for you to spend money getting 55 mage (if it isnt yet) and buying yew logs 200-250ea bowstrings or flax 100ea and nats 250ea than when you level up you can make better bows i beleive mage longs gibe 3k per alch, not to mention tooons of mage lvls high-alching that mnay bows. This is just my opinion, hope it helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icecube Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 Strung mage longs only give 1536gp. Their street price is closer to 3k though. (Strung yew longs are 768) You should find out how quickly you can sell those yew longs and if there's enough demand to sell them all (like previously stated), you should just buy supplies and high alch, or get some materials yourself. Yew logs - 200-250 ea Bow strings - 150-200 ea (depending on quantity) Flax - 100 ea Natures - 300-350 ea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icecube Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 ice cube is probably more correct about the prices, atm im f2p , iwas stating the prices for back when i was a member on another account (over a year and a half ago lol) I remember when bowstring and flax was that cheap =D. I quit around that time and when I came back I was shocked by its new price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juanflores Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 i would go with buying all the supplies you'l earn less profit but you'l make the money faster finding buyers for yew longs is uber easy in seers =p barrows drops-my first ahrims top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkieman Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 I hear that spinning in lumbridge is now faster than spinning in seers, but even so, 40k flax is ALOT to spin, would take a solid day or two maybe(for spinning alone), I'd say you're better off just buying the strings. You gotta make sure you'll be able to sell the completed bows either way though, could take a long time to get rid of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonwizerd Posted October 27, 2006 Author Share Posted October 27, 2006 well, should i high alch or sell em in forum/seers? if i'm sellin em i'm buyin all of the materials but if i'm alching, should i pick my own flax? also, why are there tons of people buying yew longs in the forums? Yayyyyyy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unitedite Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 There seems to me to have been quite a high demand for yew longs recently as people race to get 99 mage. In a little hilltop village they gambled for my clothesI bargained for salvation and they gave me a lethal doseI offered up my innocence, I got repaid with scorn"Come in'', she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragonwizerd Posted October 27, 2006 Author Share Posted October 27, 2006 buying yew longs wouldn't affect your fletching unless you're trading the bow for the materials Yayyyyyy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impretsal Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 personally just buy the logs and strings, the time it takes to spin is time you can use to make more money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bicycleboy Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 you can do about 1k flax in a day without getting outrageously bored i dont think youd enjoy spinning 40k, but that is just me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdb148 Posted October 28, 2006 Share Posted October 28, 2006 Pick flax in Lletya, it's much faster than Seer's. Check out this cool browser gladiator game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
