Pretty sure you're referring to special shops that buy at a higher value than the "regular" default buy value of shops, which is equivalent to its low alch value
Duty free bandit shop buys at high alch value I think
The way you make money is by getting items that sell for cheaper than its high alch value and then selling those items to the shop
This eliminates the need to use a nature rune, which ultimately leads to a big profit
So if you used the alchmate site, anything that is considered a profit via high alch you can buy up and sell to the duty free bandit shop
Do note that the shop reduces its buy price by like x% for each additional stock in the shop
Example, using 2% reduction
Item A = 100gp high alch value
You sell 1x Item A for 100gp
Shop now has 1x of Item A
This will reduce the price by 2%
You sell 1x Item A again. This time it's worth 98gp
You sell another 1x Item A. Now it's worth 96gp
You pretty much sell x of an item, depending on what the lowest acceptable profit margin is for you, and hop worlds then repeat
Thanks ! That's it, apparently this shop buy first at high alch value indeed.
For alchmate, seems that some items don't stay at the displayed GE price for long... reducing the profit margin a lot... Or I missed something
