February 20, 200719 yr Santas were not 22M 3 days ago either. This drop happened much more steadily, Santas have slowly dropped from 22M around 2 weeks ago to approximately 20M today. Blues are selling for as low as 370m, thats an 80m drop, if you didnt spend all your time illigally selling mils on [Censored] you would be able to pay more attention to the market. Santas were 26m in december, now they are 20m, couseing me a net loss of about 120m. If you actually kept track of the prices, then you would be able to know what you are talking about. Prices of santa's during december were around 23-24mil. And I see enough offers for blue phats on the official forums to say that their price is not 370mil and probably more towards 385-390mil at the moment. Rares did loose some ground over the past 6 months though. Their prices have probably mainly been unstable due to updates in the game. Rares most recently peaked in late September/early October (Santas were 29 million, Christmas crackers hit 1 billion, etc.). Crackers never reached 1bil. And the peak for santa's was way over the top anyway. I remember seeing crackers at 1bil myself as well.
February 20, 200719 yr Author Thanks for the contructive answer R2pleasent. Like i said when i was asked this earlier i had 2 reds traded for blue and 5m. It was after that trade that i found out the real value of blues. To a player such as yourself who has alot of money that might not be a big deal, but to me it was alot. I don't merchant, i hogged the hats way back and just never sold. As to others, i addmit that i panicked when this thing happened. I had big plans for the money to use it on skills. Now i'll figure out a new way to make some cash since merching is really not for me. As for calling the topic stupid, that's your opinion and you're entitled to it. Whoever appeals to the law against his fellow man is either a fool or a coward. Whoever cannot take care of himself without that law is both. For a wounded man shall say to his assailant: "If I live, I will kill you, If I Die, you are forgiven." Such is the Rule of Honor.
February 20, 200719 yr This thread has made me tons happier about just being able to afford a whip/barrows Rares sounds almost more trouble than they are worth
February 20, 200719 yr I remember seeing crackers at 1bil myself as well. Did you actually sell one or know anyone who sold for that price? They never reached 1bil. Yes there have been a ton of people "trying to sell with autowins 1bil", but that doesn't mean the price ever reached 1bil... They never came much above 800mil, if they even reached that. The value of my bank at its height. Estimated value at the peak of the rares market: 250 billion+.Most likely the largest trade in RuneScape ever. Estimated value at the peak of the rares market: 70 billion+.
February 20, 200719 yr Jagex have been screwing us all around with rares, and thats not our fault but theirs. They allowed them to be exploited and did nothing to prevent it early on. Now they are making it out to be our fault by punishing those who have rares by halting their investibility on a smaller scale. They should either deal with the situation (like make all rares untradable - i don't support that in anyway) which they won't do because of the amount of annoyed players. Or they should allow rares to do whatever they wish. Anyway, come spring i bet rares will be back on the up. With so many trees in the city you could see the spring coming each day until a night of warm wind would bring it suddenly in one morning. Sometimes the heavy cold rains would beat it back so that it would seem that it would never come and that you were losing a season out of your life. But you knew that there would always be the spring as you knew the river would flow again after it was frozen. When the cold rains kept on and killed the spring, it was as though a young person had died for no reason. In those days though the spring always came finally but it was frightening that it had nearly failed.

February 20, 200719 yr Crackers never reached 1bil. And the peak for santa's was way over the top anyway. At that particular point in time I was watching rares quite a bit, trying to figure out trends, and gain some insight into the unchallengable conventional wisdom that "rares always go up". And I could swear I recall seeing the upper range at Zybez.net hit 1 Billion for a week or so. And if I was off by 20 million on a billion gp, what exactly is your point? Ignore the whole post but chime in with some trivia? Nice value-add.
February 20, 200719 yr And if I was off by 20 million on a billion gp, what exactly is your point? Ignore the whole post but chime in with some trivia? Nice value-add. Let's make that 200 million shall we - big difference. And what it shows is that people can believe anything when there are few sources for info. The value of my bank at its height. Estimated value at the peak of the rares market: 250 billion+.Most likely the largest trade in RuneScape ever. Estimated value at the peak of the rares market: 70 billion+.

February 24, 200719 yr Adding prices as I see them: Small Rares- Santa: 20.2 M Green Mask: 18.8 M Blue Mask: 24.5 M Red Mask: ~36.5 M Disk: 11.75 M Easter Egg: 9.1 M Pumpkin: 9.3 M P-Hats- Purple: Between 142 M Red: Yellow: Green: 170 M White: Blue: About a week later on a Saturday, here are the prices: Santa ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ãâ 20 M Green Mask - 19 M Blue Mask ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ãâ 26 M (seems to be a lot of these) Red Mask - 35 M Disk of Return ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ãâ 11.2 M Easter Egg ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ãâ 9.1 M Pumpkin ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ãâ 9.3 M Purple Phat - 140 M Red Phat - 200 M Yellow Phat ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ãâ could not find Green Phat - 168 M White Phat - 250 M Blue Phat ̢̢̮ââ¬Å¡Ã¬Ã¢ââ¬Ãâ could not find Conclusion: No dupe what so ever \ I'm always buying snapdragon seeds, name your price.
February 24, 200719 yr I heard Santas jumped to 20.4M average now. That's a good sign. Anyways rares are supposed to rise and fall. They don't always rise, sometimes they fall a little. So when they rise (double, triple, etc), people like to sell the rares and wait for them to fall, then buy. SWAG Mayn U wanna be like me but U can't be me cuz U ain't got ma swagga on.
February 24, 200719 yr Hopefully for you the market will be back up on it's feet, soon :D Credits to Skully Sc for the signature.

They're still on the downslope IMO. My Goals and Achievements
February 24, 200719 yr I remember seeing crackers at 1bil myself as well. Did you actually sell one or know anyone who sold for that price? They never reached 1bil. Yes there have been a ton of people "trying to sell with autowins 1bil", but that doesn't mean the price ever reached 1bil... They never came much above 800mil, if they even reached that. Wait a minute, you told someone to stop selling mills for real life cash? How did you get banned then? Crackers have been sold for 1B before also. RSN: Zammyftw ^^The girl that ruined music.
February 26, 200719 yr I reckon that because of the crash a lot of people will go out and buy rares and take advatnage of the market therefore eventually prices will go back up, seems to happen a lot in the rare market : Check out my blog here!Thanks Jopie211 for the sig

Duke never said that i did, and yes crackers were 1 billion for a month or so, i sold 2 myself for 975m and 968m respectivly.

Its buyers market atm...
