Nature runes went down, so essence followed. Natures became too easy to make with the removal of the wildy.


Just wait, the Grand Exchange will slowly reduce RS's economy to ruin. Prices on nearly everything have gone down.

Why? When a seller and a buyer have mismatched prices, it brings the buyer's price down to the seller's, rather than meeting somewhere in the middle and making both of them happy. Also, many RS players are impatient (gee, who would have guessed that a hundred thousand 10 year olds wouldn't like to wait longer than five minutes? :P), so when they go to sell something, they automatically go for the minimum price. This brings any buyers' prices that would have been above minimum price down to minimum, therefore lowering the market value of the item.

The Grand Exchange was an excellent idea taken by Jagex and twisted to control the arguably best aspect of RS, Free Economy. Congratulations, Jagex, Your Communist level is now 99! =D> <-- sarcastic clapping

There he lay now, sick, miserable, filled with ill-will towards himself; full of hatred for the impulses toward life, full of suspicion of all that was still strong and happy. In short, a "Christian"... - Twighlight of the Idols

I am having a horrid time selling yew longs. I made 1k of them, spent [rounded-up] about 600k. Sold them all to a general store, for less the 150 each, as virtually no one ingame, or on forums was buying. Ingame includes the grand exchange.

I comepletly agree. Since the removal of pking, and unbalenced trade removals, the econamy completly has crashed. Even the grand exchange also was involved with this, however much i liked it. :P I wish jagex wwould listen up and just fix it.
I noticed g mauls have completly halved in price. Also, I think the whole act of removing pking made alot of people(pkers and merchanters) quit. Anyone who has made money with fishing(sharks,lobbys,swordies, ect) has just been deprived of a profit. Thats all I have to say.

Luckily I got 99 cooking before the update...

Raw fish sell pretty good and laws sell good now that world 66 is gone.

But I do agree about everything else, the economy as a whole is getting worse.
