NOTE: the calculations have been made from February 2017 until 10 Augustus 2017! The calculations are made on 11 Augustus 2017.

So here we go...

First of all, we had to guess how many unique holly wreaths are traded within the past 6 months. Based on some experience and realistic thoughts, I assumed there are around 20% unique wreaths being traded. Others are at people their bank (never traded) or some even lost by many methods. That makes around 200 unique holly wreaths being traded through the G.E. in the past 6 months.

The price of holly wreath updated 7 times in the past 6 months (as of 11 August 2017). That makes 7 updates for a volume of 200 holly wreaths. Now let’s do the math for the other rares.


First row gives the rare item. The second is the update frequency (6 month). The third row is the traded volume in the G.E.

Holly Wreath

Update frequency: 7 \t
Traded volume: 200

Christmas Scythe

Update frequency: 33
Traded volume: 943
\t\t\t
Half full wine jug

Update frequency: 0,25 to 0,50
Traded volume: 7 to 14

Disk of returning

Update frequency: 1
Traded volume: 30

Pumpkin

Update frequency: 2
Traded volume: 57

Easter egg

Update frequency: 8
Traded volume: 229
\t\t\t
Black Santa hat
Update frequency: 19
Traded volume: 543

Santa hat

Update frequency: 72\t
Traded volume: 2057

Red hallowe’en mask

Update frequency: 16
Traded volume: 457

Blue hallowe’en mask

Update frequency: 19
Traded volume: 543

Thanks to Tuffty for letting me carry this on, in the the thread it was posted on.

These numbers suggest there were 10,000+ Santa Hats and ~2700 Black Santa Hats back at the time. The number must be far lower as people left since then. Otherwise, over 1,000,000 Bonds worth of value was generated in 24 hours last week.

gonna jump this over too.

is it possible to re-valuate the old data?

im not sure if the owner of this data still checks the forums but it would help alot having a more updated version.
trusting certain pc lists or prices of items or websites that dont belong to jagex will get you into trouble notice: external websites and trades are your responsibility, dont get fooled!.

From his forum history, I think he's long gone. Shame really.

What were you hoping to find out from them?

The numbers look reasonable to me, but I don't think I've seen enough evidence to satisfy me about the correlation between traded volume and update frequency. It would be a fairly easy experiment to do if you chose the right item. I've thought about it for years, but never bothered...

I used to suspect the update frequency was related to both volume and the trade limit. Can anyone think of any items which have recently had their buy limit changed?

Bump and back. :D I'm known as Rich King Midas, and when you look at me, you'll see a king who knows a thing about his treasury. I never cared for women. I've never cared for wine. But when I count a large amount of money - ha ha - it's divine!

Be interesting to see, I know a lot of people have cashed out their rares and are sitting on the sidelines for a crash when max cash comes out. Rares as it pertains to those in the Disc item status thread haven't had much gain in the past yr.

Maybe the news is in the price right now; and a tsunami of liquidity will flood and make them spike.
