anim7 Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 Hey guys. I posted my bank and stats a few weeks ago. I sold most of my items to get my first rare. I am such an idiot. I sold items such dirt cheap prices to get this. A few days later. The prices went down. I had to sell for 8.75mil. I am such a noob. I lost about 300-350k. :wall: :wall: :wall: This was my bank..Before I bought the pumpkin. :cry: :cry: :? :wall: 100% F2P85 Mining achieved on Dec 4, 200785 Smithing achieved on May 28, 2009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C110 Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 You sold for 300k less? You should keep it, price will get up again *some day*... Anyway, gratz on your first rare - I'm not proud of everything I've done, but I have no regrets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anim7 Posted February 24, 2007 Author Share Posted February 24, 2007 I am an idiot. As my first time buying and sellign a rare, i had no idea. I saw someone sell for 9.8mil, so i bought at 9.1. Thinking that I am super smart and that soon i was gonna have a mask. Now...sadly, i am in a loss. 100% F2P85 Mining achieved on Dec 4, 200785 Smithing achieved on May 28, 2009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either look to sell the second you get it, or the second month after you get it Dont get suckered into the hype? Look at the long run...yes, they always rise and fall, but in the long run, they ALWAYS go up. "The greatest joy a man can know is to conquer his enemies and drive them before him. To ride their horses and take away their possessions. To see the faces of those who were dear to them bedewed with tears, and to clasp their wives and daughters in his arms." -Genghis Khan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordjake Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 Don't worry about rares for the time being. Concentrate on skilling, and the money will slowly roll in. Just keep investing cash back into your skills, and you'll be better off than if you emptied your bank to buy 1 rare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recruiter23 Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 mehh you need to keep it for a few months, unless you can make some good profit right away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anim7 Posted March 3, 2007 Author Share Posted March 3, 2007 i hate long term investments. for example if i canot sell an item within 3 days, then i ust sell it for a loss. i cannot concentrate on any skills when i merchant. it is like an addiction. i had the pumpkin in my possession for about 4 days and i gained 0xp in my skills. all i could think about was sellign that pumpkin. 100% F2P85 Mining achieved on Dec 4, 200785 Smithing achieved on May 28, 2009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
