Times change. I was careful enough to avoid buying items when they are released. I waited and see what value they would become after a year has passed.
As for scarcity, there are parallels to be drawn with edibles.
A few months back, merchants were like wines are junk (NO "DEMAND"
. Now the same people are begging me for wine (GL getting one now if you didn't get one already). I couldn't sell disk for 700m just several weeks back. Now look where they are...
I had the cash to spare and I didn't want to beg Wise or some other dude for a set to wear later on. If you are willing to chuck your most precious possessions like phats because someone said words like crashing/dying/quitting and then find yourself unable to rebuy for what you sold for, then you don't deserve to own a phat.

sweetie you can't compare ACTUAL rares to 2a which isn't even discontinued and second-tier best for wealth showcase. Any 3rd age/blood dyed set beats 2a in expenses and looks.

Reading up above so ill add to it, the thing you must understand is that item prices of 2nd Age are inflated and are artificial this can be said about discontinued items there are certain players I wont name names who are beyond wealthy some have over 2trillion they have nowhere to put there excess gold anymore because 2147mil in gp and items is the maximum limit going by Java scripts.
I have been burnt on second age melee enough times for example selling Plate and legs at 1.7bil then re-buying them when they rose to 2.4bil then not being able to sell them for break even prices [must stress this is a point of comparison not manipulation] so From this I gathered that whatever demand or supply is out there its superficial and artificial, there isn't any real demand for anything anymore now that a new generation of players have come into the game who are poor'er than generations proceeding it, and most of the veterans who propped up the market are now in Old School Runescape so the demand and supply has shifted to other Runescape gaming platforms, this is bad for me and other players who got stuck with a boat load of second age which was artificially inflated and someone left us stuck with it.
But I guess it is just a game and not to draw to much into that fact, we should only view this game as a means of entertainment and not as a monetary machine which the real world traders and merchants have turned it into, I doubt anyone who plays this game anymore sees it as the joy it once was that fact Jagex created something grand and the community turned it into a corrupt warped perspective of artificial value and having more is more.
Its all greed and you are not alone with Second Age guys Im stuck with tons of it
just wanted to give you my 2cents if its worth anything that helps them see another in the same situation, the question is will I hold it? Probably so I am in to deep now in the Titanic sinking ship
