Lol when you think about it though this will make setting up/maintaining a botfarm much less of a hassle when the prices inevitably crash due to oversupply
I prefer to have my nightmares with open eyes.
"We have a major problem with rwt in the game"
...So we've decided to release official real world trading. Meh
Its an interesting concept though, wondering if it'll do any good as a gold sink.

I just bought ~5 but had to do it 1 at a time.
Could you put it buy offers for more than 1?

You have to buy them one at a time. I guess if that is the one draw back.. Lol

8m for a bond = $0.625/M
GP from the market buffs goes for $0.30/M lol
At least this decreases the price of memberships, anyone know if this works for refer a friend?

28 days membership = 2 bonds = 8m x 2 = 16m EOC @ $0.30/M = $4.80 per account
Game Card = 3m OSRS GP @ $2/M = $6 = 2 memberships (refer a friend) = $3 per account

It is, but buying bonds is safer, easier and convenient so it can stay well above third party sellers.

Ah I didn't account for the Refer a Friend. Good on ya
Yeah that really only works for botters though, for those looking to make 1 account members bonds is definitely the way to go.
I can see game card prices decreasing a bit, but if you can buy bonds from Jagex I don't think many people are going to purchase game cards from 7-11 for resale (except kids that get cash allowance and want to exchange it for RSGP via that method)
I prefer to have my nightmares with open eyes.
I'd probably be willing to pay double if it was simple, guaranteed, and directly through Jagex without any risk to my account. I'd much prefer that to a gold seller especially when dealing with my high level account that I'd really hate to lose.
Again, I'm not sure the solution to rwt is rwt'ing but we all knew it was bound to happen eventually :/

I think it depends on how much you're looking to buy, as the price of bonds decreases it'll go even higher. 8m upon release only means it'll only go downhill until it stabilizes.
A lot of people buy hundreds of mils to buy the best armor/weapons. If you're going to be purchased 300m for example, why pay $180 via Jagex when you can purchase it for $90 from a gold seller?
Also the buyer usually isn't affected, it's the seller's mule accounts that get wiped for RWT
Basically, this is going to stop complete morons from RWT'ing. If it's RuneCoins or some alternate non-membership reward that people are after, all JaGeX has done is make RWT even more desirable - more bang for players' bucks.
