@sister don

I removed your post as you can't accuse anyone of Manipulating prices. It's upto the Community to do their research.

Anyone can spam selling for X and not accpet any offers. Anyone can spam Buying for X and not accept any offers. If you think they are trying to manipulate or crash prices then ignore them and move on.

2 other posts removed for comments that did not belong within this thread. Remember everyone we have a Stickied Chat thread.

There was white partyhat sold in ge last month. Does someone happen to know when that order was placed? You can pm in game if you dont want to reveal here. Anonymous quanranteed. I have one old offer but most likely it is inactive. I would love to have confirmation on that.


It could have been sniped by someone (a bot) who sets max offers in every second, this way, if there was an inactive phat sell offer for max in ge, they would get it.

This is more likely it

Friendly reminder to check out this thread to avoid falling victim to manipulation:

[Beware] Price Manipulation

Players who wish to manipulate often trade their partyhats for other partyhats+cash, this way they can over/under value the partyhat that was traded and boost/lower their sales value.
This seems to be happening a lot more lately, so please be cautious
.

- Sometimes people post ranges for their own benefit and don't reflect the recent trades.

- Some users will change their examine to claim they are accurate PC'ers, because this falls in a grey area and Fmods are unable to take action, be aware that some of these are false, they may even mention this in their post to try and deceive people.


- If a post looks suspicious, for example failing to mention second parties, screenshots, prices that seem very inaccurate compared to recent trades within the thread, then be very cautious.

- People that manipulate and use false ranges usually appear off in game and are never online to answer any queries about their ranges.

- Research the ranges advertised, to see if they include actual recent trades within the thread.

- Look for reports verified by both parties involved with the transactions.

It's a team effort to keep the community safe, since the Fmods/Jmods can't to do anything about it due to fairness and are unable to prove with 100% accuracy whether a trade is real or fake.

Sold Red Santa Hat 2850m - to Dye Devil


Forgive me for I have not played Runescape for many many years, but I do own a red santa hat. Because I haven't played in so many years, I do not know what spirit shards are and how they are used for trading for discontinued items.

After some light research, the GE price for spirit shards are currently 22gp each,
114m spirit shards x 22gp each = 2,508,000,000 NOT 2850m as his reported price was.

Even if spirit shards were 24gp each at the time of transaction, it still falls short at 24gp each x 114m spirit shards = 2,736,000,000

Can anyone explain this to me?

Yes, you can buy and sell the spirit shards for a fixed price of 25gp each in summoning shops such as the one in Taverley which means spirit shards wil always be 25gp.

I totally forget this possibility! I want to believe Jagex would notice and ban this kind of activity.. Most likely not. :@

This compilation only includes transactions with SCREENSHOTS, TIMESTAMPS, and DATES. Trade screens MUST show the 2nd trade screen with "Other Player Accepted." This heightened verification level is to deter the constant manipulation on this thread. Unless you see a screenshot, I'd strongly caution anyone from taking the trades seriously. If you wish to do more research, I will implore you to look at previous posts containing screenshots with visible trade screen, date, and time. Use price check and trade discord website and their discord.


Note: If you are unsure,
HOW TO TAKE A SCREENSHOT
with a time and date, you can use the time clock interface in-game. When you hover over it, there is a visible date and time.



ADDITIONAL RESOURCE:

Price Check and Trade discord, Suitybot. This is a great resource that verifies explicitly every user's Runescape name and only allows users who have visible trade screen, time, and date reported. You can go to these links to find them.
