~THIS THREAD IS PURLEY SPECULATION, NOT AN ATTEMPT AT MARKET MANIPULATION~
There have been rumors (unconfirmed gossip, make of it what you will) that there is the possibility of a Gem promo occuring, theoretically resulting in the re-release of the original OG Gem cosmetics: The Gem Cape, The Gem sack, the Gem Crown, The Gem Necklace etc.
(AGAIN, THIS IS JUST RUMOR/UNCONFIRMED GOSSIP!)
It got me thinking, if this where to occur there would be a complete collapse in confidence, of the TH rare items, as worthwhile holdings. A ponzi scheme at best, where one could at any time be rugged and left holding the bag. Again, some are already of the opinion that this is already True of TH rares, but the Original Gem items are viewed as kind of a bulwark, inspiring the possibility that perhaps it will stay a discontinued item, shouldering a perceived favorability that could be financially lucrative.
If of that were to die, would there be a noticeable change in the Runescape 3 economy? Would it result in a Bull Run on classic rares? And Perhaps even the Gold Party Hat, and even the OG Party Hats could be potentially be affected, as fleeing liquidity from a dying TH market could inflate lower rares prices, and perhaps even boost one well positioned merhants holdings into the range of upgrading to a Party Hat. And Vice versa, Downgrading ones hat and diversifying in lowers.
What do you think would happen if the TH rares market where to crash? Unless we are censoring common sense, I would imagine this would cause a Bull Run on rares, unless there is some detail I missed?
