Buying or selling for yourself?

These offers did best when we tested them on past GE trades.

Buy offer
191,025 GP
Sell offer
195,754 GPAfter the 2% tax, you keep 191,839 GP.

In our tests, a little under half of offers to buy or sell one completed within an hour.

Need it now? Buying right away costs about 195,754 GP, what buyers have been paying. Selling right away gets about 191,025 GP, what sellers have been taking. In our tests, waiting up to an hour for an offer saved about 2% compared with trading right away.

How we know

We tried 80 ways to pick an offer price on 6 weeks of past GE trades. Then we tested the best ones again on 5 other weeks we hadn’t used.

Each offer waited up to an hour. If it hadn’t completed by then, we finished the trade right away and counted that cost.

Offering at recent prices worked best. The buy offer is the average price sellers got in the latest five-minute stretch with a sale. The sell offer is the average price buyers paid in the latest five-minute stretch with a purchase.

We also tried the usual price over the last 6 hours. It cost a little more than recent prices, and fewer offers completed.

We worked all this out from past trades. We didn’t place these offers ourselves.

No flip suggested right now. The gap between its buy and sell prices is too small to make money after tax.

GE tax

The tax takes 83% of the gap.

Each sale at 195,754 GP pays 3,915 GP in tax. That’s 83% of the 4,729 GP gap between the buy and sell offers above.

Bought at 191,025 GP, it has to sell for at least 194,923 GP to break even.

High alch

Selling pays more right now.

High Level Alchemy gives 112,500 GP. A nature rune costs 163 GP, so a cast leaves 112,337 GP. A GE sale at 195,754 GP leaves 191,839 GP after the tax.

This is how our past suggestions for this item did. Every 2 hours we save the flip we suggest. 6 hours later, we test it against the real GE trades in between, after the 2% tax. If its buy offer wouldn’t have filled, we leave it out. These are tests, not trades players made. Newer tests count more. How we test

Past results matter. In our research on flipping after the 2% tax, items whose record made 2–5% made +2.6% on average the next time.

Margin is the average sell price minus the average buy price and the 2% tax, for each hour. A big margin doesn’t mean your offers will fill. Prices and trades come from RuneLite players, through the OSRS Wiki.
