Introduction of Sa1e
I started out on Runescape in Fall of 2004. After weeks of sweaty work collecting the feathers to achieve my first 100k, I slowly tested the waters of Runescape merchanting world. I slowly crept into it and became one of my life-long hobby of Runescape. I've been merchanting for over 8.5 years since then to today.
I went through 3 years of original free trade. Last 1.5 years was when I became a member, I merchanted Dragon med helms at 1.0-1.2m each, making 50k-100k per trade, 1-3 trades per hour at Falador park. I moved up to Dragon legs at 2.5-2.6m, then to Abyssal whips at 3.6-3.8m each. Eventually, I climbed up to Amulet of furies when it was 7.6m each.
I achieved my first 10m shortly before free trade got removed, I thought merchanting on Runescape was at absolute end. But it was a bright beginning of G.E. merchanting. One day I went to GE to buy a Bandos tassets because I thought it was cool, I used 11.5m of my 12m cash stack to buy one. It instant bought at -5% under market, refunding me about 575k. I decided to try to sell it minutes later, I managed to sell it 2 minutes later at market price, netting me 575k profit. I was amazed.
After that Bandos tassets incident, I got myself into mainly GWD merchanting, my bank boomed to 200m in early 2009 after about 1 year. Purple partyhat was 64m at that time. Everyone still had a mindset that partyhats are dropping forever and I was a scared noob, sadly I chose not to buy one.
I climbed to a peak of 680m (after I spent 270m on 99 crafting + Sc'd smithing) in end of 2010.
Free trade came back and flipping was born on that very day. Then I spent 285m on herblore in 2011, bottoming out at 450m.
I then started to do some serious flipping at 450m, started with 3a in Spring 2012. I climbed up to Red partyhat + 1 billion in Oct 2012. then I lost it all. I flipped it back from ground zero in 4.5 months. Richer now.
