Rare discontinued rune gauntlets.

Specifics:
* Discontinued, that is: not available in game anymore, only tradable with other players
* Originally from FOG (Fist of Guthix) or hellhounds
* Examine description is "i have to keep my hands safe" (instead of "a pair of rune gauntlets&quot ;)
* high alch value is 4.500 gp (instead of 500 gp)
* trade value 20k (instead of 2.290 gp)
* not upgradable through smithing

anyone knows a price for these?

Today I'm standing in free-to-play world and some guy says "selling rare discontinued gauntlets". He puts up 2 pair of steel gauntlets. Says you can't buy them anymore.

So I go to GE and I buy a pair. I put them up in trade which looks like a one-to-one "Steel gauntlets" for "Steel gauntlets" trade. And we accept.

He says "try to sell on GE", and I'll be darned, it wouldn't let me.

So we trade back. I say it couldn't be worth too much if he just trusted me with it. But I ended up buying one for 1m.

Normal steel gauntlets:
High Alch: 100gp;
Examine: "A pair of steel gauntlets".
Price Checker: 463 (current ge value).

Discontinued steel gauntlets:
High Alch: 600gp;
Examine: "I have to keep my hands safe!"
Price Checker: 1,250




Seems to be the same situation as the discontinued Rune Gauntlets. Apparently you can't get gauntlets from fog anymore, it probably had bronze-rune, yeah?

Wish I picked his brain a bit more. He said he was coming back after a long time on his old pure account. Would liked to have asked where he got them from.

I bought Elite stack's 3t araxyte spider pair for 250 mil


Hi,

could you explain how this is discontinued? I am not really up to date on the farm and so.



There was a hidden update to player owned farm where araxyte spiders cant be bred from other araxyte spiders anymore. Although you can get a shiny 1 trait araxyte spider from an unchecked araxyte spider egg (which is dropped by araxxi), you can no longer get a 1t, 2t, 3t, (or shiny 2t or 3t) araxyte spider anymore, since they cant be bred from other araxyte spiders.
