PLEASE READ THIS MODS
Okay so I am not mad at you guys trying to make more money by creating this store. However, there would be better ways of making money then to sell fake appearance items that don't do anything.
These items look awesome and should be their own unique weapon with stats or abilities (Don't take abilities off weapons for EoC, just allow them to be added to the bar and only usable when that weapon is equipped). It is just really annoying to have an awesome weapon or some armor that looks great but is really another piece of equipment in disguise.
So please make equipment not be in the store and only found in the game. Like all of these whips wouldn't have to be too different if that was a problem. They could just have slightly different stats, like the rock one could deal more damage but be less accurate or something. Then they could have different abilities.
One way you guys can make money, is by having players buy dyes. Then they could change the color of any armor or weapon. This wouldn't be lying like the fake weapons and armor do right now. It would just be a cool color change.
*Edit
I wanted to add that its disappointing that the best looking stuff in the game is in the real money store.
At first, I thought everything didn't look that great because the artists just weren't that good. But this proves they actually have some artistic talent! So stop holding back and make everything look great like these items!

I am agents micro transactions in the game when it effects you account like the SOF. However I may not like the idea of Solomon's store but if it just deals in cosmetic things then I find nothing wrong here. I think the new weps look pretty cool an to each there own. But I would much have rather seen them added to the game as real items an not just some skin.

I am personally not against Solomon General Store as long as the items that this ugly genie sells remain cosmetics. I consider it RWT but at least we cannot buy our way in to the game with cosmetics.
However, concerning the SoF, the matter is completely different. At first, when we had only 2 spins per day, I found the update really interesting. It added a new twist because we could win items and lamps. And I had found that it was intelligent to make the items untradeable.
But when Jagex implemented buyable spins, the matter changed completely. Players could then buy their way in the game. I find it unacceptable. In my humble opinion, I think SoF was a great update with 2 spins a day but Jagex(or IVP) ruined it by introducing buyable spins.
Furthermore, I noticed a lack of response from Jmods when players complain about SoF or SGS. However, whenever a random compliment of the update appears in this sea of complains, Jmods jump on that and use it as a kind of *proof* that players appreciate the update.
On a last note, I want to ask Jagex why do they create such fantastic armours and weapons only to be buyable with real-life money? Why can't actual weapons obtained as drops from monsters benefit from such amazing graphics?
