Don't forget, this is a GENERAL PRICE GUIDE. Needless to say, not every single person will pay or do work at these ratios, but the MAJORITY will.
Not much has changed but information gathering is hard when it comes to all the jobs that RS has to offer.
Anyhow, I've decided to alter this at the end of each month or when the prices start to change and just keep reposting it.

For those voting, do not confirm a vote unless you have read the thread through and understand that these prices are based on what
the majority of the people pay/receive in the most frequent way. I have nulled my vote.

With a little common sense you can use this Price Guide to figure out what you should be paying for certain jobs.
There isn't a price for everything, but feel free to post it if it's not here.

Remember that the supplies, gear, locations, levels, and the user depend on your ratios.

Gold ratios:
These change over time and cannot be stickied.
If you want to know how much FG you should receive/pay for a rare item that you are buying/selling at Medium or Minimum, e.g. Zamorak Godsword, you would use the current
rate of gold ( 1fg:50k for example in P2P/1fg:100k in F2P) to make up for what cash you are loosing out on. This applies to items being merched and are maxed in GE as well.

Agility:
This can be done a number of ways.
The most commonly used way is doing Gnome Stronghold until you are about level 35.
Regardless the cost still goes for a ratio of 1fg:300-500 exp.

After that it's best to use Brimhaven for a while which you can either pay by exp or tickets.
The ticket price is usually 1fg:2-4 tickets depending on your agility level,
And the exp price is about 1fg:600 exp.

This price doesn't normally go more than 1fg:700 exp no matter where you train your agility.

Construction:
Construction can be very easy if you have the right items and know what you are doing.
The majority of the people are willing to pay 1fg:1k exp until level 33.
Ratios after that can range from 1fg:2,500 exp up to 1fg:4,000 exp.
All depends on what you have available and how bad you want it done.

Herblore:
Since this skill is very easy and simple to do, assuming all the items are supplied the ratio starts off at 1fg:750 exp ratio ( Level 9 herblore).
And around level 40 it will be 1fg:1,000-2,000 exp from then on.

Farming
Plenty of ways to do this but if you know what you are doing you will pay/receive 1fg:500 - 750 exp exp as payment. Period.
You can do Vine sweeper while you wait on your currently growing harvest.
However, this skill takes patience and many people will throw a ratio of 1fg:250-300 exp at you.
Nothing wrong with that.

Hunter
The number one ratio seems to be 1fg:750 exp. That is all you will ever really see after level 30 just about.

Red Chins:

Prayer
Done in the 100's or by 1000's usually withdragon bones.
No gilded alter - 1fg:750-1k exp
Gilded alter 1fg:1,500-2,00 exp
Yes, the gilded alter gives a 350% but the process is longer.

Runecrafting
Anywhere from 1fg:100- 400 exp is what you are looking for.
The more costly ratio's are f2p ofc and the higher ratios are for graahking or ZMI alter.

Slayer
Depending on gear and stats, this will go for 1fg:100-350 exp.

Summoning
Just about the most simple skill there is, which means a great ratio of 1fg:2,500 exp all the way.
BUT, some controversy says that since the exp is so different depending on what level you are, it should be done by fg:trips made.
So, the ratio for that is 1fg: 3 trips if running and 1fg:4 if doing kyatt method. May change by +1 trip.

Thieving
Starting ratio of 1fg:300-500 exp.
For people using pyramid plunder with high thieving you can easily get over 100k exp per hour which means you'll be getting about 1fg:1k ratio.
But, since this is a very "slow" skill, people will most likely offer no more than 1fg:750 exp.

The following skills are most commonly paid at the same ratio:

Attack
Strength
Defence
Cooking
Crafting
Ranging
Smithing
Mining
Magic
Fishing
Fletching
Woodcutting

Levels 1-40 generally consist of a 1fg:500 exp ratio, which means you will be paying 75fg. But the thing is, if you don't have either members, or have food and weapons supplied, most
people will charge around 300fg because it is so time consuming.
Levels 40- 80 usually go for a 1fg:1k ratio. The total cost would be 1, 949fg.
Levels 80-99 uses a 1fg:2k ratio most of the time costing you 5,5525fg.
However, there are times where the only ratio you can find is 1fg:1,500 exp which is a total 7,366fg.

Exceptions:

There are other ways of getting higher ratios though.
For example, red chins. This method is mostly used for people with 80 range and continue this until 90.
So for "chinning" the ratio tends to be 1fg:3k but can go up to 1fg:5k in rare cases.

Also, Ivy. This is a very easy, very fast way of gaining exp.
The usual ratio for this is 1fg:2k exp.

Mining gems tend not to be something most people look for but the ratio would be about 1fg:1.5k.
The same ratio applies to mining Granite.
Hint: When wearing a fully charged glory you mine gems faster.

When using Stealing creations tool it is only common sense to double the ratio, but only for the non-combat skills.
You'll see it is hard to find someone willing to use SC armour to level your Combat skills.
Brawlers - In PvP worlds, the gloves provide 1.5x normal experience while training on the skill. In addition, the gloves provide quadruple experience if players train while in the Wilderness. The gloves disintegrate after a number of uses.

*If you are wanting someone to use the Fist of Guthix mini-game, the ratio is halved, causing the price to double.

Depends solely on the player.
The better your stats, the less you pay.
This price ranges from 500fg -->

1, 500fg.

Bronze Rune defender:
The typical FG paid for this is 100.
If you don't already have at least 2,000 tokens you will need to pay for this also.

Great Orb Project Tokens:
Easy to get but hard to find someone so you'll be paying about 35fg:1,000 tokens.

Pest Control:
Combat levels under 100 will be paying 1fg:1-2 points.
Combat level over 100 will be paying 1fg:3-4 points.
If you have high standards, you'll be paying more.

Soul wars:
Games last 20 minutes and you must participate or you will be kicked out until the next round.
5fg-7fg is what you want to look for on this mini-game.

Stealing Creations:
Most trusted users are the one's doing this type of job. Priced at 1fg:1 points usually.
You'd be lucky to get any better. However, so people do 1fg:1.5-2 points if all skills are level 80+.

Quest Prices!

Please keep in mind that quest prices vary more than anything. These prices have been slightly altered from several Quest service threads.
So, the price could be off by up to 15%.
