I wanna try to restate a thing for clarity. if I found some nice vintage boots at an estate sale, like... say some santa rosa engineer boots like arnold schwarzenegger wears in terminator 2... I can -already- use ebay to search completed auctions and see how often such things have sold, at all, and see a range of sale prices probably related to condition.

ugly url paste please forgive:
https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&LH_Complete=1&_udlo=&_udhi=&_samilow=&_samihi=&_sadis=15&_stpos=75042&_dmd=1&_ipg=50&_fosrp=1&_nkw=santa+rosa+engineer+boots&_sop=3

our GE could do that, but its a lot of work for just Timbo to do it. They would need a minimum of 4 jagex guys to focus on making it for like 2 months, and then leave Timbo, or the next guy, in charge of updating it. They might do that eventually, but... its hard to see it being the same kind of thing that might lure in a new player, or returning player, as compared to like... new elder god wars dungeon third and fourth bosses.

as far as popularity contest and purity testing some "neutral" report guy goes... wooo. no way man. I don't completely trust anyone who plays. It'd reek of reddit post count shill (or gamefaqs before it where cabin fever types would post on every game "should I buy this game?" til they had hundreds of posts and undeserved powers to moderate the rest of the forum).

purity test has multiple meanings, but this was its origin, and its easy to see how the results would almost always be invalid.

right now we can use rs wiki to enlarge and look at average sale prices of... say... brine sabre.



lookit this weirdness: for 2 years there it kinda rose up to a million bucks! I kinda sorta remember maybe it was like... it had same stats as rune scim but didnt have any atk/str req, and then they changed so it crashed? was that it?

but we only get so much info. I'd kinda like to know how many sold, how often, etc. like thats something forum types and wikians could add to their pages, but meanwhile these oddities are not really illuminated as fully as would be possible with a searchable GE history

edit/add: do y'all remember, btw, the nomenclature origin for "
mad hats
?"

cause before GE the fix was live at falador gardens, and oooo y'all were mad, so mad, that GE was coming, and you thought party hats would crash. forums full of yer protests.

well... thats not what happened.
