Greetings Jagex, the algorithm for GE price vs trade valve price needs to be re-assessed. I was just scammed 7,000,000 gp by trading an idividual for dragon items and these tiara. It took me over a month to accumulate that wealth and now its gone in the blink of an eye. There is not enough scam information being broadcasted in game and the amount GE bots spamming at the ge is getting ridiculous. I am a long time player of jagex 20+ years. I would really to have my 7m back, and in addition, that more development into anti scamming it put in place.

Real simple, lets show the GE market value of items while in trade. I believe this to be highly unfair, and that I should be given 7,000,000 gp back because of this incident. I am a very polite and beneficial player to the society of OSRS. Ive been working a long time hopes to prevent these scams and join the ranks of a moderator. However more development is necessary.

Thank You, I mean this as positive as possible and I do report and stop many scams throughout my gameplay.

Gold tiara in trade value = 5719gp

Gold tiara in ge value = 313 gp.

This needs to be addressed, and a definite reversal should be done. Even an OSRS bond would be a fair deal in reaching a solution for this neglect in the ingame trading system.

Thank You.

F2P gp is hard. Sorry for your loss. I think the game helps teach players to be wary, teaches a real world lesson. I didn’t even know gold tiaras exist…

The ge is really great. I dunno that it’d be easy for them to improve it. RS I believe was early in creating an exchange like this. So, the concept might have been improved upon.

You risk a worse result with a change. You should have been here for restricted trade…
I cannot for the life of me manage to catch Covid. Perhaps it's because I didn't get vaxxed? The travails of those lacking immunity. :(

I'm extremely sympathetic to your concern. I have lobbied hard in the past for Jagex to take prices and the economy in the game more seriously but to no avail.

However, luckily for you, 7m isn't a lot. I can give you 7m gp for free if you contact me in-game.
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.

Oh nvm. This is OSRS. 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.
