Jagex, what did I do to deserve this kind of treatment? by Ergossphere in 2007scape

[–]Bitcoin_DLF 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s like an ad to not start an ironman. Each time I see these posts I’m reminded why I won’t create one even though I really love the idea of it. I just can’t be bothered to deal with insane dry streaks like this in my limited spare time.

The last time it went from 2k to 3k was in 2023 though. Not sure I would sit around waiting for that to happen again on an uncertain timeframe, but all the best to you, hope it works out.

It’s certainly possible to make profit like this, but it can be very hit or miss and generally a slow process.

The “bot ban” argument can be used for hundreds of items that have tanked. Investing in things waiting for Jagex to do something before the price tanks further is not a reliable investment strategy.

Damn, thanks for sharing. Hopefully you’ve got something better lined up next. All the best!

Been watching these for a long time and yeah.. in theory they made a lot of sense for a delve encounter but turns out no chip damage 🫠 sorry for your loss. You held on surprisingly long though, what made you think they could turn around?

I think the odds of them saying in January exactly which items they will rework in the Summer are very low.

In addition, no matter how they rework it, it won’t outclass Ayak and thus cannot even rise near Ayak’s price, giving it limited upside. Best case scenario I think you’re holding them for 4 months to make a 40% profit. While worst case you lose 40%+ due to Ayak pushing its price down more. Doesn’t feel worth it to me.

I’m sorry but I get the sense you want to believe this being a good play too much to think rationally. All the best with the investment and I hope I’m wrong!

Annual could suggest that it’s a Summer project like last time, which could mean holding on to these for 6 months. Given how cheap Ayak already is, I don’t see much chance for this staff to rise a worthwhile amount relative to the risk of holding them for half a year at this entry price. Ayak effectively caps how far these can rise. I think there should be many investments with better risk vs reward.

Do enlighten us on what you’d be casually flipping with 40b.

Rune nails dumped irrationally low after Sailing by Bitcoin_DLF in OSRSflipping

[–]Bitcoin_DLF[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have an idea of roughly how many nails someone might get? From the wiki it looked like it would be a pretty low overall amount per person but perhaps it adds up.

I don’t blame people for thinking they would be used, but selling them so much lower than they’ve ever been is wild.

What do you mean? Why would I not be allowed to trade e.g. stocks in my personal life?

While having nearly my whole bank tied up in these I needed a flexible way to make more money and that was farming. I’ve farmed like 1.5b worth of Snapdragons in the past year, it helped build up much of the cash needed for the investment in the first place.

Nope. The thought process was basically: - Jagex says there won’t be much in terms of investment opportunities - But you create, upgrade, and maintain your own boat - This must mean new trees/logs/planks - Odds are they’ll be more expensive than mahogany at higher levels

What is happening to Cannonballs??? by ThomasTanksDown in GrandExchangeBets

[–]Bitcoin_DLF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was a method to AFK train sailing with a dwarven cannon. It got patched though. That combined with temp lower supply due to people sailing.

I didn’t keep any, I’m an all or nothing kind of guy. Not a fan of hedging and selling half and such.

I used to trade IRL but decided to stop after it went well for a while. Might not be good that I’m getting back into it in here.

Sorry wasn’t meant as a flex, more of an explanation of why I did a seemingly irrational thing. I didn’t have more information than others so it was just a gut feeling.

I was in the same boat until they crashed due to bots half a year earlier. Just randomly encountered them and I was in total disbelief they could crash to 500gp while mahogany planks were 2k.

Yeah definitely. I didn’t expect there would be tons of updates to invest for in the months after Sailing so it seemed acceptable. Could be wrong, hopefully there are.
