Why the sudden spike in price? Was it just supply and demand? Shame to think I had one about a month ago and I sold it...

Why are they going up in price? Is it because they are 'cool'. Well, they aren't that cool, and they certainly aren't discontinued items.

They are cool. Freaking great Ranged bonus.

They spiked because of this smart move Jagex made:

To me, Robin Hats pwn Paper Crown or Rubber Mask

Did the price really spike because Jagex said "Hold onto your Robin Hood hats"?

Hmm, if the price goes up again, i'm definately going to buy one, the possibility that the price might go up again, and because I just like them will get me to do it.

:/

Everyone + rune scim = Jagex thinks low of their p2pers?

Maybe that's why updates are based on low/mid players.

Anyway, back on topic, yeah I noticed this a couple weeks ago, sad I didn't invest in them.

They're dropping back in price afaik. They went from 7.6 to 7.2 today I recall.

Well I hope they're going down, I don't like that something that was fairly easy to get one day pretty much doubled in price. I feel the same ways about Yew Longbows right now but oh well, those were always unstable.

Edit: Just checked, the price is evening out to a nice 6.5 now.

I find it funny how everyone seemed to take this months bts so literally. It's full of metaphors and sayings. "Hold onto your Hats" for example.

Robins and Rangers have gone up cause of pures really, I haven't noticed too big a price increase since March 1st.

**** this would be a great merchanting way! **** i only have 10k.

The " Hold onto your Robin Hood hats" could me a clue to a possible rangeing update that will be released this month or in the next...

peaple aren't getting robin hood hats or ranger boots. The peaple that have the sets do not want to sell thiers. So the peaple that want to by them are not getting them. So it started to back up in my opion.

you seem to forget, anubis, that there is a huge population of 8-12 year olds that fuel the game with their meager iqs and inferior intellects. could you really blame them for being stupid? no.

"boys will be boys" runescape style is "stupid 8 year olds will be stupid"

once again demonstrating his dislike of all things under the 8th grade... ~potato~

Merchants have power in runescape ecomnomics, ther was a rumour they were goingto become discontinued, so the idiot merchants raised the price, then rs mods cleared the rumour, also a large amount of them disapeared when they banned cursed you, Its just moronic merchants **** with us.
