Rsgp in 2005

[liam182]

Can anyone tell me roughly how much gp was per mil back in 2005. Just wanting to know out of curiosity.

That's a good question, I'm really tempted to say like 5 dollars a mil but I could be off. It was expensive as hell.

 

[Marbles]

ya i think 5$

I started playing in 03, and I remember gold being $7/m

2005 prices were around $6,5/m.

Sellerman would definitely know tbh. 6.5 definitely sounds about right, I know I wasn't introduced to the blackmarket scene until 2006 or 2007 - and it was always hovering around 5 dollars give or take 50 cents or so.

Man, this brings back memories. 1m for 5 bucks. I guess when you apply it proportionately to the actual prices of items such as partyhats at the time, it's not too much more money - but it's definitely more profit back at the time than it is now. Very cool to think about. Also sad to think about all the opportunities at rl money I had .

I remember paying £3/m from gold sites in the past - Wouldn't surprise me if it was around 05/06. It was also when £3 = $6 so anywhere around the figures mentioned above won't be too far out.

lol what were y'all doing on the black market 10 years ago?? 10 years ago I was dancing for money, rockin' my noob gear, and cutting down trees for cash.

Making gains when gains were easier to make!

Thanks guys because I had a friend start in 05 (I started 04) and by half way trough the year he had all party hats and d chain (when it was around 25m+) just trying to piece together how much he would've spent since i'm assuming it wasn't made legit haha

Having party hats and D Chain back in 05? I'm guessing he must have sold them when they were already on the rise and he would surely be regretting his decision till date

6-8$/m

Me too pretty much, I didn't get my first partyhats til either late 2006 or 2007. I was decently rich in 2005 though, had full dragon and such. I was always pretty good at getting GP fast.

@Liam - He easily would have had to spent THOUSANDS. Partyhats were still expensive AF (the cheapest being like 3x a D Chain)...so they weren't easy to get. Damn If I had known about Abyss Rcing in 2005 though??? I'd probably have been able to get 2-3 phat sets alone off of that.

Yeah, just thought the discussion was interesting. I'll lock it after this post. I did it legit - both collecting dragon bones and large scale merchanting - and then getting 99 rc in 07 08ish. That's how I got all my Partyhats (still have em today woohoo).

But yeah, you're right. We've answered this question. Though reminiscing on the times was nice.
