Hey,

What is happening with this item. They buy at 6500 ea and your order gets filled in no time.
Its far below the price what they normally are and the alch value of items made with them.
They are now almost the same price as cut dragonstones at an all time low which is like 1500 lower then their previous all time lows.

Have they been massively duped somehow or is it something else?

They have been a common drop from the last three boss releases from Jagex. I guess they think that because the alch value they can just pump them into the game and have them stay the same price. But given that 3/4 last boss releases also drop tonnes of dragonhides they are basically just flooding more crafting xp into the game than what's demanded at any given moment and it shows on prices of all crafting stuff lately.
At least that's my thoughts.

Would you trust a Price-checking service that has bots running in W2 advertising themselves constantly? I wouldn't!

It just seems weird to me.

2 million dragon stones are traded in ge every day,i asume that means more or less 2 million a day are dropped by monsters.
Crafting the dragonstones into the alch product isnt all that fast,its been ages since i have done it but i vaguely remember you could maybe do like 250/hour including the alching and excluding the smelting of gold bars and such.
How is the runescape crafting population ever going to process 2 million dragonstones a day? It seems virtually impossible as there is so many more products that need crafting as well like hides (which also sit at alch).

Its a steep drop into the abbys on the chart for dragonstones after years of beeing more or less stable. Gold bars went up but they went up way less then dragonstones did drop. Dragonstones did drop 1500-2000 and bars went up 700.

Its not that its really important but its something that doesnt make sense to me.
Anyway i will keep buying dragonstones lol,you have to do something with your coins after all.
