I don't know wha happened since yesterday but white + blue have skyrocketed.

White went up 500-700m and blue went up from mid-high 28s to close to 30b: over a billion gp overnight.

I was expecting white to go up since it's undervalued compared to blue phat, but blue went up MORE proportionally to white. I don't know why blue would even go up at all tbh.

Sometimes the prices recorded in the thread are because upper hats are illiquid. It takes time to buy or sell them. People don't have the patience and just pay whatever to get what they want. Especially if its just a long term investment. It's very possible that on certain days there are no sellers of x hat and there may be multiple buyers. In this case there is scarcity and they will pay more than what its worth to get it.

That's a good point. Right now I think there is a mix between stubborn hat sellers and high demand.

Hey guys.

I've quit Runescape. Please feel free to keep the thread going if you like, but I will no longer be operating it.

Have a great time.

Oh, and invest in masks ;)

Good luck Midas

and i'd rather invest in Christmas Scythes atm, maybe masks in a few more years when the supply is a lot lower ^_^

Imo, rares have peaked.

Today, however, the demand for phats was overwhelming. Almost no sellers until this evening. People were demanding hats, but there were no sellers. So, the prices just got higher and higher.

That might not sound like a peak, but lacking any evidence, I believe we've peaked. Time will tell.

Well that is quiet a surprise,its not my business but why did you quit?
Anyway,noone truly quits runescape. Everyone comes back eventually if only casually.

Hats have broken free,the suply has completely dried up. The only hats you see for sale are yellows and the occasional purple and green. The other hats are gone,not for sale anymore.
Well i guess they are for sale if the price is right,which right now it obviously is not.
Big jump for hats incoming,maybe the final jump when supply has dried up which often marks the end of the rise but thats hard to say.
Blue to 40b,white 28b,red 20b. Within a few months maybe even.

And if they dont go up but "crash" (aka drop 10%) then its even better.
You can not go wrong if you have both hats and coins,always profit no matter what happens.

Masks are undervalued when compared to santa and so are hats. Masks i dont know,there is no real demand for them in the end other then merchants while demand for partyhats is virtually unlimited.

@ H Rassy

I will likely return someday, and my bank is positioned well for that, which is exciting.

But the reason for my departure is that I am taking on new responsibilities at my job, and I just will not have the time for RS, sadly. I am also dealing with some medical issues related to a military deployment a number of years ago, that I need to sort out.

It was definitely a fun experience returning to and playing RS again, which has always been my favorite, and most nostalgic video game, and hopefully I will have a period of time in the future where I will get to play again.

And you're right, no one truly ever quits Runescape. ^_^

Feel free to keep the thread going. I think it's an important thread for the community to have, and it would be a shame if it fizzled out.

What do yall think of the historic ratio of xmas scythe + wreath? The old ratio of 5:1 was broken semi-recently.

I'm assuming scythes have gained on wreaths because they're in the g/e + more prone to buyouts but it's pretty crazy how the wreath is worth about 2.6 scythes rather than the usual 5.

I guess we've also learned that historic ratios really don't matter as much anymore but I did think these rares were different given we know the exact numbers that were released.

On a side note xmas scythe being uncontested in the weapon slot does make it more appealing than wreath having to contest with a ton of rares.

I also don't see wreath being 7.5 anytime soon LOL
