Party hats are going to rapidly rise. Why? First we have to get into the statistics. Why did they drop so rapidly in the first place? It's because before the 3k trade limit, stakers were the richest players in the game. Most would think merchanters would be the richest, but no. A player who can double his money in under 5 minutes, can make quite a load of cash. On my defense/prayer pure (Snow_Ninjas) I went from 150m-470m staking. I know 6 people on the game who have the max ammount of cash. One got it from scamming (angel_cape), the other saved rares from classic (phat_shock), the last 4 all got it from staking (O_Solo_Mio and a few others). Merchanting isn't what it's really said to be, richest merchanter I know only has around 1.2billion gp (God__I) and he spends his life merchanting.

How do these stakers use money? After max cash, you can get more money, but it doesn't actually show you the worth. If you examine it, you just see "2,144,700,000 gold peices" (max). So, they would invest in rares. Buying out all the rares, most of all party hats. This caused a steady gain in the price of phats, a bit more than they were actually worth. Now, when the updates kicked in, stakers couldn't do what they loved most. It became boring with no reward. The few that didn't quit started skilling. For that they needed money, and therefore started selling a few party hats here and there. But you don't understand. I would estimate an average of around 1,000 party hat's in active playing users hands. This is probobly alot less than your estimate. The reason?

Angry stakers and merchanters have quit runescape, pissed about the updates - leaving their rares in their bank, and abandoning Runescape. Now, when theres 50-100 stakers selling party hats, and only a handful of people buying them, the price obviously dropped. This caused people to get scared and sell theirs too. Now there were over half the party hats on the exchange, but no buyers. The prices literally bottemed out. But while the street price of party hat's have been dropping, the literal price has been rising. More and more stakers and merchanters have quit than ever. The guy I told you about (God__I) has played since RS Beta (2001), and is gone. This caused the actual rarity of party hat's even greater than it has ever been. 2001-2004 blue party hats went from 1gp to 45million gold peices . From 2004-2007 they went from 45million to over 500million. Now, with all the new player's and wealth being brought into the game, the literal price of a Gold Peice has dropped. Also, with item lending you can make 400k overnight, just lending a party hat for junk...adding to it's wealth.

The most part of rares have finally bottemed out and are now starting to rise. Can you imagine what the blue party hat will be worth in 2010? If we stick to pure stats it should reach, an estimated 5,555 billion gold peices. Now in 3 years, how many people with party hat's do you think will still play the game. Most have outgrown runescape, and very few actually sell. In conclusion I would just like to say, I think all of you predicting a price drop in "phats" are in for a little surprise.

Sincerely,
Snowboard-Ninja

It's not hard for Jagex to put some Phats into the game on their acc's. But that probley won't happen, and your saying merchanting didn't affect alot of gp? 1 word.

R2Pleasent.

 

[Snowboard-Ninja]

R2Pleasent himself (the god merchanter) never made max cash on Runescape until after his little business. Though I think he did at one point have a single party hat set.

 

[Hellz Shellz]

believe it or not, he's right.
its similar to NASDAQ and the stocks.
people got scared, everythings being sold. eventually when everything is sold, the prices will rise, and its like people ripping up their stock papers, so there is alot less, so prices jump like crazy.
the same would happen with phats. just imagine what the ccrakers will be like.
thast alot of gp.

title says your selling yet your not

soomn mechscape comes and rs will be abandoned

rs will be dead like rsc

 

[Noob!]

ya its true scary but very very true

 

[timberlandboyz]

5.5B? they buy max .g.e. lol?

 

[Merchant_in_the_dark]

I'm intending to hit max cash in the next year or so.

Your partyhat theory is true, but it's important to realize that this is only in the long term that they will rise. Remember when red masks used to be 40M before the GE?

Shit happens, and the price of rares will always be fluctuating. In the long run, however, they will inevitably rise - because of the simple rules of supply and demand. More rich people, fewer partyhats.

You didn't even read the post...



@Snowboard Ninja or w/e

You have the right train of thought, but Runescape might be abandoned for Mechscape

Exactly my point. Darn too bad I have a tend to make a couple sentances of information into a ton of paragraph's lol. Good luck on max cash. And yeah, I remember when I used to merch masks. Green 20.3m-21.3m, blue 27.0m-28.5m, red 37.0m-40.0m. Can't beleive I can still remember that.

soomn mechscape comes and rs will be abandoned

rs will be dead like rsc

I know no-one's going to beleive me; But I know a few J-mod's and they all say mechscape is a staff joke.

 

[The Nature]

As a Current owner of a few Party hats, and an account I've owned since 2001.
This gentleman is quite right, Rares will go up and they have always been unstable.

Spot on.

maybe faster then you think, once people hear of this more people will be buying back their phats, and new ones. people will start to hoard them, and now days anything that makes over 200k an hour is seen by jagex as RWT.
on another note, it is possable for jagex to make a totaly new rare, they just said it wouldent be a holiday item...and i belive chessy is currently the richest mercher, somewhere in double digit billions...

and as a side note, admins do spawn things, but i doubt they trade.

Moderator's can spawn any item they want. They can't trade though. The way their account works is way different than any other players. I can't go into specifics because I'm not sure if there are any lurking J-mods around Sythe.

dont worry, ive known about that forever, but almost every time you bring it up random people call you noobs and that you are wrong.

 

[Snowboard-Ninja]

Yeah, I like lot's of inside information. I'm used to people telling me I'm wrong. If I knew people would believe what I say, I probably wouldn't say it. It's just funny to find all these people who try to get as much inside information as they possibly can, then after all the twisted shit they dig through - I tell them something they would have never known anywhere else - and they call me a noob.

 

[masterv11]

so what ur telling me is keep my purple which i bought for 95mill and now its only 90mill and dropping?

 

[I OLD SCHOOL I]

It all has to do with the wealth of the game. Nowadays peoples are getting as rich as stakers was.. That's why they will buy phats again, sooner or later.

ANd you should keep your purple.

 

[Alt F4]

rs will be dead like rsc

Which will cause everything to either rise or fall. I'm guessing fall. But I don't know.

 

[Freely Drawn]

maybe it will happen.

 

[Breakyoself]

One reason that phats are around the hundreds of millions as opposed to a few million in the days of rsc is that players these days have more gp than ever. With this in mind, party hats priced at 5.5b in 2010 would mean ALOT more billionaires than we have now.
