You transfered a large amount of gold to a new fresh account. This is the biggest red flag possible.
New accounts are treated the same as bots and sellers and get instantly banned.
Use aged leveled accounts to receive and hold gold. Play on them a while before trading significant amounts of...
If both accounts are yours - you won't get banned. You can trade back-and-forth as many times as you like.
If they aren't, you'll have to take some risk, no matter how you trade it.
The "mass buyer bans" was a PR stunt. From experience, less than 1 in 1000 trades gets a temp ban. Most of them as collateral damage when a large reseller network gets penalized.
Stop buying on accounts that have received a temp penalty. Switch it up, use a different one and stay safe.
Buyers get a temporary ban first. Usually a longer temporary ban as a second warning. Then follows permanent penalty. It's best to stop buying on an account if it has a penalty already. Use a different account if that happens.
You can buy gold and then get expensive items from GE if you want to...
Gold sometimes stays, sometimes doesn't. Items stay.
Buy expensive items after getting gold and keep them in your bank. Sell them one by one when you need gold for something new.
Buy from smaller sellers who have good track record. That way you're much less likely to become collateral damage if a large reseller gets penalized.
There are sellers who haven't got a single ban in years. Just have to find them. Look at reviews. Most sellers will have a few negative ones with...

Information I provided comes from experience of thousands of trades.
I am not sure what you gain from creating fantasy stories like this. The only occasion a gold buyer would be permanently banned on first trade is if he broke other rules, such as macro usage (botting). As...
Selling and buying is treated differently. Selling gold is risky and always results in permaban. Buying is significantly less risky, and gets a warning and 1-3 temporary bans before it turns permanent.
This can happen if you're buying on fresh lvl3 accounts, or buying on accounts that match a...
That is factually incorrect. It's often best to not voice your opinion on the topics you have no knowledge about.
Jagex has vastly different approach for sellers and buyers.
Buyers get a warning, then a temporary ban, than a second temporary ban, and 4th offence can lead to permanent ban...
