Be Respectful please


I've only been buying osrs gp for little over a month here and the price went from 80 to 87. At this rate, it will be 100 or more per 1m before summer.

OSRS gp is 1:15 USD per M if you know where to go and That Price is not Increasing anytime Soon. It's a Booming Market.

If I spent 1:15 Usd here on Fg I would probably only get 5fg and that's not an educated guess.

it's just a randomized guess because I'm to lazy to do the math but if in case you are curious, 290 fg is 10 bucks.

1m of osrs gp is 1.59 cents after taxes usually so do the math.

I generally find the Diablo 2 community to be a well-respected community most of the time.

I understand the logarithmic curve of a fluctuating value in an active market-place that is dominated by supply and demand but for those of you who play Diablo 2 and Old School Runescape like me, I want you to ask your self.

Would you Pay 2-3 Ber Runes for 1M in Old School Runescape?

Now actually Think about that for a minute. ( Excluding Botters, I'm talking about Legit Players who do not Bot like me))


Some of you here are Merchanting which I fully understand that, everybody wants to get the most bang for their buck.

But why are you going to continuously raise the price within an unreasonable amount of time?

in little over a month the price has gone from 80:1 to 87:1 and or 90:1 (which I was just recently offered).

If this rate continues, it will be over 100fg per 1M before Summer.

80:1 ratio is, in my opinion, a price already OP. But people are pushing for more and I'm curious as to why.

The Demand is There, without a doubt but the Supply is Unlimited. There will Always be somebody here with over 100M and selling it so there is no excuse to ever bring up Supply affecting the price per 1m.

with that said,

Am I the only person who feels this way about this?

What are your thoughts?


((( Oh and I am selling my Diablo 2 Gear in order to Buy Osrs Gp and that is exactly why I'm concerned about this ))

What are you on dude... people are free to buy and sell gold at whatever rate they want. Also you’d be stupid to buy 290 fg for 10 bucks

haha dont do drugs

I asked you guys to be respectful. If you are not going to take this discussion seriously then please find your way off of my post please & thank you.

Unfortunately you can get high runes for days even weeks in Diablo II and you don't even have to be in front of the computer. Fortunately you can do that in Runescape for short period of time. Runescape gold is more valuable since a very large portion of the player base actually work to get it. On a personal assumption the supply balance the demand with the addition of bonds, duel arena taxes, death payments or any other way to not let the supply going skyrocket.

gold prices are strictly based on supply and demand, just like any commodity

when people are trying to buy things for a certain price, and no one is selling at that price, the person trying to buy the thing will raise the price they are willing to pay

So you are referencing players who play Runescape specifically to Pk as well as the alternative method of obtaining membership here if I am not mistaken. ( if I am, could you please expand on that for me )



If people Skill in Osrs like me, then money will eventually not be a problem. ( I understand the contradiction I just made) as a ( buyer here ) & as a Skiller & occasional Pker there are more than enough methods to make good money in decent time. Zammy Wine is 50k an inventory usually.

Slaying Green Dragon Bot slaying can run you about 50-75k per inventory if you only range or melee and keep only teleport runes & food in your inventory. ( assuming that you drop your food to pick up Dragon Bones which are about 2k each in the ge)


I understand there is the risk of being pked but if you are smart that won't ever be a problem, you can log and hop worlds no problem and always make the trip to the bank.

Plus, Flax is 3gp each, Bow strings are 125-130 gp ea. That's also quite profitable, I do that myself currently.


And You also mentioned getting high runes daily as if they drop daily, which isn't true and you brought up botters.

Can we exclude botters or is the excluding botters obsolete because of the fact that they indisputably do impact the marketplace?

I have a lvl 91 Lite Sorc with 550 Mf exactly and I frequent private games every single day and sometimes public hunting for good drops and in a single day I might get 3-4 profitable drops and High Rune Drop rates are unaffected by MF so where do you get a High Rune Dropping on a Daily basis from? If that's happening, then I want to know Your Secret because a High Rune ( Jah, Zod, Cham, Ber, Vex ect.. ) Everything Higher than an Ist but Not counting an Ist Rune only drops for me like once a week.

Anyway back to Bonds, yeah that's 3m for 14 days. If you can't make 3m with 14 days of membership than you don't know how to play runescape at all i guess.

(I'm a vetearn d2 & osrs player ) I'm just trying to sustain membership which is why i buy osrs gp here

Merching gold (or gold farming) used to be illegal on these forum. The prices used to be a lot more steady.
Then goldbranch started merch gold, people saw him do it and started to as well.
When confronted. He suspended the user for a month and changed the forum rules.
Now the gold prices fluctuate rapidly.

That's pretty Harsh to Suspend a guy for provoking hypocrisy.

Thatsgold branch for you.

Lasshing was a big part of this as well but this was a year or two before he become a med
