tissueear - yup ty

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

madjamie13 - superheat rune, use the al kharid furance to smelt, also hire army of smelters to smelt bars for me (for a fee).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sxcybob123 - i only use the methods above really, but u can merchant just about anything because nothing really has a stand price (like not everyone buys rune kites at 55k ea (some might buy 50ea). I find the fletching way gets annoying (if u smith the tips and then make arrows) however if u just bought and sold arrows it might work well (expectally for rune arrows (buy like 300-350 sell 400ea)).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The_orange_cabbage - i beilve theres sentance that says it a long guide at the top of the guide (says its like 13 or 14 pages on microsoft word).

10/10 Great guide. I made these calculations fom 30 smithing and 44k to 99 smithing and 119M. Must take a long time...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(100[iron ore]*80[buy price])+(200[coal ore]*180[buy price]) =

 

 

 

44000[gp spent]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

100[steel bars]*600[sell price] =

 

 

 

60000[gp earned]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

60000[gp earned]-44000[gp spent] =

 

 

 

16000[extra cash]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

100[steel bars]*17.5[exp each] =

 

 

 

1750[exp total]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

13021068[30 smithing]/1750[exp total] =

 

 

 

7440.610286[times til 99]

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

7441[times til 99]*16000[extra cash each 100 bars] =

 

 

 

119056000[ending money][119M]

wizjany - hmmm i might use that calculatio in my guide

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and yea it would take a long time

 

 

 

im at 86 smith and 40m, and im only about 30% maybe to lvl 99 smith.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

so ill probably have at least 100m by the time i get to 99 smith. which isnt bad considering it cost about 100m to get to 99 smith if u do it the fastest way (buy bars -> smith the best pl8 bodies u can make then alch them (exepct for iron pl8s just sell them)).

I would make claculations with actual smithing not smelting ony, but if I did smelt and smith i have to add the exp and that would take to long unless there is a standard to smith because of the number of bars each object takes.

it's easier for me to mine the iron

I totally based whether or not and how to form my company based on yours. I still look up to you as a merchanter and consider you as far better of a store than I am. I'm still not sure whether I will buy/sell mith, addy, and rune ores. I may, I'm just not sure if people would buy :?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Excellent guide,

And good luck in the future w/ your company.

MarketplaceFad - weather to base it on mine or not is up to you. As for buying and selling for mith, addy and rune ore, its not so much weather people will buy or sell... its weather there willing to buy or sell at the prices u are after.

simple really* u dont...

 

 

 

they get some bars for you (i have them get at least 250) then trade those bars for ores+cash.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ya i dont quite make as much as i could... my company is big but not really effient. and i dont invest a ton of time into it maybe a few hours aday... and i could probably get ores+bars for cheaper from fally east bank but i really dont like yelling "buying this" and "selling that" all day. Id rather smith and have them come to me.

pretty cool guide.

Im P2P

98% of rs players have attempted a scam. If your one of the 2% who havent, copy this into your sig..

Awsome guide. I used to merchant, but i felt it was kinda immoral. I suggest adding a section about merchanting furies, which was what I did. About 700k each time. Basically, buy 33.333k chaos runes. Sell to tzharr rune shop, get 300k tukkul, buy onyx, sway onyx and 25k for fury. You spend about 4.2 some for a fury :P

Dungeoneering isn't a skill.

I'm faster than bots at Sorceress Garden.

PM me if you want to chat. My PM is always off.

My keyboard is on fire. Want some?

Good guide!

 

 

 

But to much focus on smithing and mining...Try to make more merchanting ways open for new merchanters, by telling about, for example, willow logs merchanting.

 

 

 

Overall: 7/10!

Add me if you so wish: SwreeTak

8/10, good guide but like swedishboy sayd, try other methods to, i got one, add Xanotex if you want \'

ooh eeh ooh ahah, ting tang wallawallabingbang m8

  • Author

Xanotex + Xanotex - its focused on Mining+smithing because its what i do... but it also says that basicly anything can be merchanted. And because i mechant those... its more focused on them... however the methods can be applied to just about anything.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

your free to subbit any merchanting method you feel like (also never really saw much profit in merchanting willows so enlighten me).

goto to worlds like... 1,3,4,5,7,8 and other almost full worlds (1,900+ people, i find f2p worlds work best (as there are better ways for members to make money). and try fally east bank... remember to world hope if u dont see any sellers in like 2 minutes or so.

 

 

 

 

 

ill have to include this comment in tips section, or make a FAQ section.
