Nice easy fix is make them none tradeable and they can't use used or manipulated for high prices within the Community.
I'm sure Jagex did not intend for these to gain max price for some. They were added for fun only.
None Tradeable is the way to go.
Either that or put a time limit on their use. Use them or lose them. Still make then none tradeable.

I don't think making them "untradable" and worthless is a reasonable solution. Merchants aren't the problem here; the problem is the excessive reintroduction of items without regard for their economy and delivery.
While players understand Jagex's intentions of these items not being discontinued, I don't see any harm in players investing in them in the short-term or flipping items for a profit. I think that type of market freedom should be necessary.
Continuously introducing these tokens to the point where they're ridiculously common and making them untradable isn't the solution here; it doesn't address that players are losing excitement toward these items.
Jagex can find a way to make these tokens "special", without being too rare to the point where they reach 2b+ prices (Zombie token), while also ensuring they're not 10k or a ridiculously negligible value to the point where players don't desire them and perceive them as junk. Some type of exit from the game, in addition to consumption is necessary for balance.

Tending to agree with Tuffty's idea of "untradeable" and/or time limits.
However, strongly disagree with Theos idea of flipping items for profit.
The track records show that flip/merching tends towards various abuses and, tends have a negative impact on game balance as it appears as an afk activity that outpaces more intense activities.
That is, flip/merching tends to become overpowered and should be nerfed.
Check it out, the Grand Exchange has buy/sell limits that were intended to help prevent the abuses of flip/merching.
So, strongly disagree with flip/merching, it doesn't result in "market freedom" because it tends towards monopolies, price manipulation abuses and it actually obstructs the market.
Furthermore, disagree with the premise that "oversaturation" results in "worthless items" because of the principle that "one person's worthless item is another person's valued treasure."
Snobbery against affordable items isn't a justification for flip/merch profit monopolies.
Thus, strongly disagree with this thread's premise because cosmetic items are presented to all the players for fun and enjoyment rather than the narrow band of appeasement of a handful of flip/merch profit monopolies. 'o.0'
