3rd age longsword

Is it true that 3a longs have a street value of over max cash?

Where do people buy and sell these if they can't in the ge?

 

Yes, and they find people that have them.

 

probably osrs forums?

 

Yep, you can't buy them in the GE even for max cash. The majority of 3rd age longs have been stockpiled by a few people, Wilson being one of them (not sure if he flips them anymore though): https://twitter.com/WilsonMagna/status/679585137776930816

 

he does, friend of mine bought one a few weeks ago

 

That's insane.. looking at his current twitter status it looks like he gambled away his money?

 

Just makes me sick on how much profits he makes by flipping

 

Thats is so crazy wish i had one

 

Just imagen getting pne of them. Easy rent paid.

 

I've been reading his twitter... How does a single person make an item jump from 800m to max cash?

 

Has 5B+ Bank
States he's soon quitting
*randomly gables his bank away*

do you sense the pattern here

You might call it flipping, I call it price manipulation lol.

 

Wilson played a pretty smart role here, he bought all the longs he could, and as they're extremely rare they would slowly rise price because of the demand and there was stakers who wanted to play fashionscape bought them off for huge prices, he said it on one of his streams I believe.

 

There's no way that staking stream was staged. First he started with 1B, profits 15B for a total bank of ~67B. He then proceeded to slowly lose all but 23B of his bank to known stakers (Zulrah Life, Get That Pid, In 2 Win).

He then made that twitter announcement. But perhaps he rwt'd the last 23B but I do think that was a legitimate stream.

Btw, how did he make the prices go up by so much?

 

It's straight up price manipulation.

 

Yeah the prices may be a little manipulated, because
a few of the richest players hord those items but they're
indeed over max cash.

That's probably the reason they added these GP tickets so you
can have over max cash.

 

As Many Have said before , Known Merchers Like Wilson will stock pile them and sell for obsured prices , as the golden rule states , you can sell anyone anything for any price , just depends how much they want it.

 

Who in the right mind would pay 3 or 4b (I think thats what his highest sell price was) for a 3a long??

 

Stupid rich people lol. Kinda same for all 3rd age. Useless as theres better cheaper armour out there, but used mostly to show off wealth

 

Wouldn't say stupid rich people lol. If it retains its value then why not.

 

True true, but if you wanted to store your gp you better use those tokens imo, no risk of price fluctuations.

However if you have reasons to believe those items will rise, i agree, better to invest in something
