Putting On The Trade

Accumulating 13 million raw trout took months of patient buying. Each time raw trout prices dipped to around 10gp, I started buying as much as I could. At the time, I would get 20k raw trout instantly… all of the time. The prices were at historical lows because the supply was large.

Doubling Up On The Trade

Once the Botnuke day went by, prices of the commonly consumed fishes started going up. Swordfish and Sharks were first to show price changes. Soon Tuna, Salmon and Pike joined in the price rise, but lobsters and trout seemed unaffected. During this time, I was even more aggressive in my purchasing of raw trout.

Why Raw Trout and Not Trout?

Trout has proven it would have been a fantastic investment – but the rapid price rise in cooked trout indicated there is a shortage of them in the markets now… and that may well be because I have horded so many raw trout that have never been cooked!!

However, that’s not why I bought raw instead of cooked trout. I made this choice because the raw version of all other fishes is more costly than the cooked version – but not for trout… so I bought into raw trout, thinking this imbalance would correct itself and soon raw trout would be more costly than trout… so far that has not proven to be the case.

The Present Day – January 25, 2012

Currently, I’m logging into the game several times a day checking to see if it’s time to sell my inventory.

From this time on, I will record how I’m selling out of this position here, and make comments as I go along.

Free Guide Open To The Public

I’d like to thank Sonu Dangee for the Merchanting Commentary below. There some interesting market observations here, so the guide was worth paying for and it’s worth putting on the public area of the website – but this guide is not specific enough to be included in the Paid Pro-Merchanting Area of Lumbridgecity.

There are several different items that have gone up and down in value over the past thirty days. Here’s a look at what the Runescape biggest gainers and losers are on the Grand Exchange.

Runescape Biggest Gainers

Most of the Runescape biggest gainers are small-value materials. The largest price change is through the Crayfish Cage. This product was worth around 9 a month ago. Today it is trading for 85. This is a sudden increase that has made this product more appealing.

The Box Trap has gone from 99 to 314 in the past thirty days. This is one of the top gainers at the Grand Exchange because its value has tripled in the past month. Its value is now around what it was in August 2011. Whether or not the value of the product will go back down is unknown but it has become more valuable again.

The Ancient Cloak has also increased in value. It has gone from 133k thirty days ago to around 216k today. This makes for a 75% increase. This is making for the highest value that the Ancient Cloak has ever been at. This may be a great choice among what item to merchant because the price appears to have gotten steady.

These three items have helped to create a substantial combination of items. These are used as a means of catching food with ease. The Ancient Cloak has also become popular thanks to how it adds to a player’s defense without creating any negative impacts on the attacks that a player can handle. It even adds a +3 prayer bonus.

Runescape Biggest Losers

Some items have been substantially impacted by the Grand Exchange from those who are selling them quickly. The Runescape biggest losers are topped by the Polypore Stick. The product had a large vale when it was first introduced but in the past thirty days it has fallen from 2.9m to 229k. The Polypore Stick works with many benefits and cannot be bought but it will still be a challenge to sell due to how it has declined in value so quickly.

The Grifolic Leggings are also Runescape biggest losers to watch for. These items were originally 1.5m in value thirty days ago. Today these are found for around 535k. This is a decline more than half of what it originally was. This is in spite of the increased magic support and crush protection that the leggings have to offer. This cannot be bought either but it may be sold to people. However, it may not work well among what item to merchant because some may be suspicious over the sudden decline in its value and how its value is still falling.

The Blood Talisman is also falling in value. It was around 6.5k thirty days ago but is now at around 3.5k. It had experienced a minor rise in its value a few weeks ago but it has been dropping in value for the most part in the past thirty days and even from the past three months.

The Blood Talisman may be a good item to merchant thanks to how it allows people to get into the Blood Altar in Meiyerditch. It may help to try and sell this item off at the Grand Exchange as quickly as possible before its value gets at risk of going down even more.

What Does This Mean?

Overall, these three formations are among the most popular and least popular. The formation with the Ancient Cloak, Box Trap and Crayfish Cage has become popular because it involves the protection that comes to a player through these items. It will be easier to stay secure and to get access to more food through these items.

The Blood Talisman, Grifolic Leggings and Polypore Stick are not very popular simply because they are becoming more common. More people are finding these in nature and as a result are choosing to sell off what they have quickly. Anyone who wants these items will be better off simply finding them off of enemies that are defeated around the game.

These rising and falling values for Runescape are important to see. They all relate to the many things that are going in and out of style to see what could or could not become more valuable over time.

Linkbuilder’s Note: This article is NOT good enough to make it into the paid Pro-Merchanters Area. It is a good article for free general gaming site that is stuffed with ads, but it’s not good enough to be worth paying membership fees for – and I think you’ll agree with me.

A Runescape Daily Run can be a great way for anyone to earn more profits in the F2P Runescape game. This involves buying items and getting them exchanged in the F2P world at the Grand Exchange. This is all done for getting the best profit. It is one of the best money making ventures that anyone can use in this game.

This Runescape Daily Run can work with about 50k in gold to start. It also works best when starting as close to Lumbridge as possible. A teleporting ring is also strongly recommended because it will get you between each spot as quickly as possible.

The first money making strategy is to get to Lumbridge and into the fishing supply store. All the feathers should be bought here. You can then go to Port Sarim by going to the northwest in between the buildings and through Draynor Village by going between the jail and marketplace It helps to stay as close to the farming areas as possible.

All the water and earth runes can be bought at the magic shop here. Death runes may also work but only if they are limited to a few due to their volatile values. There is also a fishing shop in the F2P Port Sarim world. All the feathers should be bought here too.

You can then transport to Varrock and get to the magic shop on the southeast corner of the town. The same runes that were bought at the Port Sarim magic shop should be bought at the same magic shop here.

Everything that was bought can then be sold off at the Grand Exchange. You can do this by tracing your path back to where you transported into Varrock from and then move northwest to the Grand Exchange. You’ll need to go along the palace walls to get there on time.

This should be relatively easy to manage. The amount of money that you can get for this Runescape Daily Run should be at least 30k in value. This can be more if you buy more feathers and you are careful with getting death runes.

This Runescape Daily Run should help you to get more F2P money than most players. In fact, if you do this every day you can get about a million in the course of a few months. This should make it easier for you to afford some of the most popular things around the F2P version of the game.

Remember, the items that are in these shops will reset every day. You’ll need to repeat this each day as soon as possible because supplies run out for the day.

Be sure to see how you can do this hen finding a way to make more money out of the F2P version of Runescape. This is a money making venture that will be very easy for you to manage and should not be too complicated. It only take a few minutes to do and can be done each day for the best possible results.

This is an example of a FAILED Article from iwriter.com

This is an article that was written (mostly copied) from information gathered by a basic Google Search, and it is not a Guide written by an experienced Runescape Player who is sharing his real tips for making money by doing a daily run to a series of vendors throughout the game.

This generic article might work for a gaming website about that is full of advertising for you to click on, but there are no ads on LumbridgeCity, and there is no room in our Pro-Merchanters Membership Area for lame-ass content like this article:

One of the most famous online multiplayer games in existence today is Runescape. Since its debut, millions of gamers worldwide have continued accumulating money using the Runescape daily run, and almost all of them have had tremendous success. However, quite a large number of players are of the notion that making money on runescape is not an easy venture. This is not entirely true. Though the process is a little bit hard, arming yourself with the right information can and will greatly increase your chances of making money on runescape. There exist many places that the gamer can purchase items and later resell them for profit, thus earning you money.

You can buy a bolt of cloth from the saw mill operator in varrock. The bolt of cloth is normally use to build items such as curtains and wooden beds in the construction skill. This purchase will cost you six hundred and fifty coins. To make profit, you need to purchase the whole lot of bolts at a cost of 195,000 coins. You can then resell the bolts of cloth on the grand exchange for more than fifty percent profit. To achieve this run quickly, you can opt to use the jot air balloon as a mean of transport, or ride epic style on a beast of burden. This is an effective daily run that can be done in minutes in case you are running low on coins. However, not all runs can be done. To access some runs, you need to have the required skills and equipments.

For lower level gamers who are not yet conversant with runescape daily runs, the easiest way to make money is to visit the gnome stronghold and collect toads. You can then take them back to the grand tree bank, and as long as you do not remove the legs, you are guaranteed some coins. This run has not changed much since its inception. It is mainly targeted for newbie gamers to help them accumulate the much needed coins. The telgrabbing white berries daily run is a simple yet effective way of earning money on Runscape. Visit any canoe station and take the canoe to the wilderness. Continue eastwards until you come across white berries on the opposite side of Lava River. Use your telegrabs to pick up the berries, and then continue southwards to the cave. You will need to apply Lumbridge teleport to enter the cave. Repeat the above process as much times as you can.

In Runescape daily runs, your speed will determine how much money you make from a single run. Always watch out for free collectible items such as coins left by others. Though they are usually of small value, they will definitely give your inventory a nice boost. Due to the dynamic nature of the game, players should always keep in mind that daily run can change abruptly. In most cases, the degree of change is minimal. Keeping track of these changes will ensure that you do not get stuck while trying to complete a run.

As you can quickly tell, the author of this article does not play Runescape, and I think even confuses it with World of Warcraft!  This is not a helpful guide that is going to provide any unique and tested solution for anyone.

Hiring Real Runescape Guide Writers!

If you read all the way through this, then you likely play Runescape, and I’ll even wager you are pretty good at the game – might even have a skill cape or two…  If you know what you are doing in Runescape, and want to make a buck or two writing high quality guides for Runescape players - then Lumbridgecity has a writing job for you!

After reviewing the web stats for the Lumbridgecity website for the past few years, reflecting on the success of he site and the forums, and, while basking in the delight of turning 13.5m into now over 800m – I see more opportunity to merchant on Runescape than has been available for more than a year…

All these things put together have made me take action, and finally invest in moving this website to it’s own dedicated hosting account with its own dedicated IP Address, SSL Certificate and more.

Its Time To Get Serious About Merchanting Again!

Predictions About Bronze Bar, Tin Ore and Copper Ore Prices on Runescape

—-*** Show Me The Money ***—-

If you want to know exactly how much you could have made, here is the math:

If you had invested when this video was created, then, so far you could have made

profit = ((selling price) – (cost))/(cost)

Initial Investment 3m (1 million into each)

bought 12,500 bronze bar @80 each = 1 m
bought 50,000 copper ore @20 each = 1 m
bought 62,500 tin ore @16 each = 1 m

If you sold out today:

sold 12,500 bronze bar @269 = 3,362,500
sold 50k copper @60 = 3,000,000
sold 62.5k tin ore @26 = 1,625,000

bronze bar (269-80)/80 = 2.36*100% = 236%
copper (60-20)/20 = 2.00 = 200%
tin ore (26-16)/16 = 0.625 = 62.5%

3m invested – 7,987,000 returned = 4,989,500 profit

(7.987,000-3,000,000)/3,000,000=1.66*100% = 166% overall profit

…and, the price of Tin Ore and Copper Ore are still going up!

—-*** Show Me The Money ***—-

If you could make those kind of profits in the real world, you would be a very, very wealthy person. (This is why practicing this skill (merchanting) with play money in Runescape makes good sense to me!)

Want to know what I think is going up in price next?

Watch my bank video! 784m invested!

Anyone have a guess about what item I think is going up?
Do you have a guess about WHY I think that?

Prizes for the best answers to these questions!
