THE FACTS
I made more than 100 million Gp in less than 2 months.
The methods I have used are simple, but relative few people have
recognised their gains.
Thanks to several 100+ level friends that have helped me write this
guide.
You need to read the whole guide before you start!
Basic Hints-
· It is often the case that you can sell an item for a lot more if it is on
· a member server. So becoming a Runescape Member is encouraged!
If you want to make millions!
The forums are a gold mine! The forums available at
www.runescape.com allow 1000’s of potential buyers to see what
you are selling at minimal effort. This is many more than in the
game, and save s time you are waiting for a buyer. It means that
you can hold auctions where, if the demand is high enough, the
prices offered for your items escalates and you may be able to sell for a lot more than intended.
If you don’t intend to buy or sell in the game. Choose the most
busy banks and places to make sure you get the most potential
customers! These are World 1 Varrock West(Free players) and
World 2 Falador East (Members). Also picking the most popular
times to sell increases your customers, E.g. 4-6pm, and 10-12pm
UK time.
Remember the character name of buyers, As they are often
interested in buying more of the same item in the future!
Let’s cut to the chase, the key to making money on runescape is
MERCHANTING. Merchanting is simply buying items for cheap, and selling them on for more. In this guide I will start off with the techniques that even the lowest of levels can use, before moving onto the highest paid techniques, which can earn you millions for minutes of work if you’re good!
LOW LEVEL/INVESTMENT TECHNIQUES
NO INVESTMENT:
If you literally have no money on runescape the quickest way to make money, in my option, is to mine rune essence.
To do this simply go to the rune shop in east of Varrock. Here you
can be teleported by the shop owner to an area to mine rune essence Use a pick up axe on the rune essence to collect a whole inventory.
Take it to the closest bank (Varrock East) and deposit it. When you have enough the essence can be sold for 20-25Gp each. So if you mine 1000 you make 25k!
Another good thing to collect are Herbs(members) and big bones
which sell for 1k each and 300Gp respectively
MINIMAL INVESTMENT /50K+
Follow these 5 steps to make your money:
Set yourself up in west bank Varrock-World 1 (this is very
important as f2p people sell them for less than members- I never
buy off members)
Stand in a place where as many people as possible can see you.
Type Green: buying all natures (Green: make type green so people
can see easier)
Do not state price buying for as this varies depending on amount
(see buying section)
Wait for people to trade!
“Remember to buy ANY amount as it will be unlikely to get 1000 cheap at onceâ€
BUYING
At the present time buying 1K Natures you should be easily get 350 - 400GP each. Therefore if you re buying natures, anything less than 350Gp will yield a profit. The lower the price you pay, the more profit but you have to give a reasonable amount or people will not sell.
The rough outlines I use are-
• 1-99 Natures, buy at 250 each.
• 100-400 buy at 400 each.
• 400+ offer 300 each and 330 if they decline.
OTHER LOW LEVEL INVESTMENT GOOD MERCHANTING ITEMS ARE-
• Big bones. Can be sold at 350-400Gp each. Advised buying price
250-300.
• Limpwurt Roots- Can be sold up to 1k on member’s forums.
Advised buying price 350-400Gp. This means you can easily quite
DOUBLE YOUR MONEY!!!
• Rune essence: can be sold for 35Gp each on member’s servers if a lot are obtained. Advised buying price 20Gp.
Remember- If you know you can sell something at a certain price, if you can buy it for anything less than that price, you will be making money when you sell it on! There is a slight risk involved when choosing the prices so try so try and buy thing for as cheap as possible.
Repeat this buying and selling stuff and watch your money grow!
Profit table example
If you buy natures at 300 each and sell at 400 each:
Amount of natures brought, cost to buy at 300 each, Profit
Amount Cost Profit
500 150000Gp 50000Gp
1000 300,000Gp 100,000Gp
5000 1500,000Gp 500,000Gp
10000 30000,000Gp 1,000,000Gp!!!
By selling 10K natures you will be making 1million Gp profit if you
buy for 300 and sell for 400Gp. Buying for 200 each means you will have 2million Gp profit!
Note:
• Usually, the more of an item you buy, the more money you make.
A good investment would be to buy about 1-2k of the items listed
as good Merchanting items above so it is best if you have 300-
700k to invest.
• Try and sell items in 1k intervals E.g. 1k, 2k, 3k, 5k etc.
• Always have a calculator present so you can add up the Gp to Give/Receive.
Coloured Gloves
After completing the priest in pearl member’s quest, you can buy
coloured gloves from werewolf village. The gloves cost just 650Gp each! To make money off them buy a lot (red and gold are most popular) and sell to non members on world one for between 2-5K. You could make over 700% profits on each glove!
If you want to buy more gloves than available in the shops at any
time, simply switch worlds and you will find that there are more in the other worlds for you to buy.
Chaos and Death Runes
Although this is a time consuming way of making money, it really
does work! The reason begin is that these runes are often sold out in the rune shop in varrock so player pay large prices for large numbers.
All you have to do is buy large numbers of these runes from the shop and sell them on. Do this by:
• Going to varrock rune shop with all the money you would like to
invest. Buy all the deaths and chaos you want (death make a bigger
profit) or are available.
• If you want, keep switching worlds as the shops are individual to
each world, so one can have a lot and they other can have very
little. Repeat this process until your happy that you have enough
chaos and death runes.
• At the present time chaos can be sold for 175Gp (making 85Gp
profit on each run you buy!) and deaths can be sold for 400Gp
(making 220Gp on each one you buy)
• Remember the easiest way to sell is on the runescape forums. Make a post in the “Runes†section and watch the buyers come in!!
Big Rune Hint!!!
If you are a level 66+mage (level 63 mage with a wizard mind bomb) you can enter into the member’s magic guild in Yanille. Hears you can buy Laws for 240Gp, they can be sold up to 1k but usually 350Gp.
And blood can also be brought on for a profit.
A good tip is to buy Blood, chaos, death and law runes. These will all sell for a profit, death will get the most profit followed by laws.
Tip: remember, if you want to buy these runes as fast as possible, make sure you go into the world with the least people in, at a time where there are least people online, this will increase the chances of there being many runes on.
Higher level investment 300k+
I make millions a day using this method so listen up! A great way of making money is to buy Dirty herbs. These can easily be
bought for 1k and you’ll have no trouble finding sellers. But in bulk, I have bought these for 1k and sold them for 2k! Making a profit of 1million in 1-2hrs.
Vital information: People look to buy stack of 11 that are quite evenly distributed. So remember, buy 7 stacks or more which are quite even.
If you have a high level Herblore you can also make money through cleaning them and selling them cleaned! Plus you’ll gain all that extra herblore XP!
To find out what type of herb a “stack†is id one and remember which stack it came from.
Guams Can be sold for 1K Each!
Marrentil Can sold for 1K each!
Tarromin Can be sold for 1K each!
Harlander Can be sold for 1-1.2k each!
Ranner Can be sold for 5K each.
Irit Can be sold for 2-2.5K each!
Avantoe Can be sold for 2-2.5k each.
Kwuarm Can be sold for 3k each.
Cadantine Can be sold for 2-3k each.
Dwarf Weed Can be sold for 3-4k each.
Ladytymes Can be sold for 4-5k each.
If you are high enough level you can also may the herbs you buy into potions and sell them on for more. Currently, super sets (super defence, attack and strength), anti-fire, and prayer potion are the best selling.
Ok, we are now on the expert section! These are the methods that got me my full dragon armour, my party hat set, and much more. But BEWARE; these techniques require skill and precision!
THE ULTIMATE MONEY MAKING
Using this method is basically gambling, but gambling where; if you
are good enough, you have a very good chance of making millions!
I have made 1million GP+ from 30minutes play from this method!
Important things to remember whilst using the methods below:
Always monitor the prices of items using the runescape forums and find out which items are in demand and which have fallen.
They involve a risk, but these items do not often drop in price by that much so if you monitor the forums regularly, you should be able to sell before the price crash.
Always buy and sell the items on the forums, as it is faster and more efficient.
Holiday Drops
These drops were on special holidays during the year and dropped on only one day, so they are Ultra-rare.
They include-
PARTY HATS
HALLOWEEN MASKS
SANTA HATS
As time goes on, people may drop them, there accounts may be frozen or their player may get banned. This means that there are gradually less of these holiday drops available! More and more players are fast becoming richer, so the demand for these items is increasing as the amount available is decreasing. This means that it is often a worthwhile investment, one of these items, as their price, over time, is guaranteed to rise!
Example- When they came out, party hats were sold for as little as 20k.
They are now sold for 24million for the best colours. That is a 120000% increase by my calculations!
So if you have some money it seems worth it to invest in some of these items and watch the price gradually grow. Halloween mask and party hats have been rocketing in price for these last few weeks.
The prices may dip and dive sometimes but the net effect is often that the price increases over time.
MERCHANTING OTHER EXPENSIVE ITEMS
Items that are rare monster drops, but can still be achieved all the time as more and more people get the drop and there are less people that want to buy the item! You can, however, use this to your advantage!
Example: The Abyssal Whip
These items are a very rare drop and can only be achieved by people with a level of 85+slayer. As more and more people reach level 85 slayer, while
there are less and less people that need a whip, the price decreases over time.
You should look out for the SUDDEN DROPS in price. These happen as people who have the whip are desperately trying to sell theirs before the price decreases.
If several people are doing this at once, the price may rapidly “drop†by up to 1million in 1 day. It is time that I act, that I buy a
whip when it has reached its lowest price.
The quick reason in drop may does not comply with the demand/supply of the item and is only caused by desperate people trying to sell, so I often find that by the next day, the price has rocketed back to where it should be.
At this time, I sell the item and collect the well deserved profit.
I have actually done this twice using abysmal whip and earned myself and profit of over 2millionGP!
But is it not just this item that you can make a profit from, experiment with other ones. Believe me, there are a lot of there!
Basically after an unnatural drop in price, the price usually skyrockets back up to what it “naturally†should be!
But using this method is risky but means that I can make about 1million Gp in about 30minutes work:
Buying the whip, monitoring the price every once in a while over the next day, and selling when the price return to normal.
Now that I have millions of GP, I usually employ the “Merchanting
expensive items†technique as it is extremely fast and I can afford to take the risk.
