As someone who is earning the bond in game instead of just buying, thanks for doing this "challenge" it gets boring but will probably be rewarding (havnt gotten a bond yet but just hit the 5m mark)

[@patrickm5822]

Bro just do some chores around the house and get a bond and save your gp to build your account faster, shouldn’t be buying a bond to play unless you making at least like 700k a hour minimum

[@macncheese3174]

@@patrickm5822 I'm 20, I don't do chores for money lol, I also just like to play like this, I do it in a lot of games (including Albion online) I think just buying the membership just removes most of the challenge of building an account AND building a cash stack. It's boring to me just to swipe a card

[@GeoffSayre]

Earning your p2p through bonds is a fun challenge! I hope you get your first bond soon

[@yournamehere5376]

Passively flip and make money by other ways at the same time

Once u get 5ish millions the money keeos growing non stop. I got the bond and extra 30m and still haven't used the bond

[@scarlett6761]

Zamora Full Helm is used for clues. I bet people are often buying them and then selling them back for the clue step since it’s only Master clues and so they don’t want to keep several hundred thousand GP locked up in a stash unit that they only use once in a blue moon. That would also explain why the set is cheaper than the helm sometimes, because people are just searching for the clue item. How fascinating!

[@AmIEvenHereRN]

Buying an item and then selling it back shortly after doesn’t decrease supply and raise prices that much. The prices are being raised because most people doing master clues CAN afford to dump 1m into a stash just for the sake of convenience.

Was looking for this video, litterly a couple of days ago on your channel, because last year you said you tend to make one of these every year, and here it is, awesome.

I love how this trend transcends mmos. Played wow for a decade, just picked up osrs. Now I get to watch this gem here too. Ty boss loved the vid.

[@elisteele574]

These are easily some of my favorite videos of yours, especially as someone that mostly plays f2p.

My niche thing in f2p was purple capes you could buy red capes in varrock , dyes off ge then sell em for sometimes 1k ea … because looking good is important. And purple is bis fashionscape

Also the guthix set(lg) is probably either members who don't have it, but also have a lot of gp or players who want to feel the nostalgia. 😂

[@TheDragonshunter]

I try sht like this I end up with -100m

[@lexiatel]

Me too, that's why I only do cheap stuff that I can skill with should the price tank 🤭

[@PENT1UM]

Lmao

[@Encephalophage]

Historically, bonds fluctuate in price a lot, and it's fairly consistent that they get most expensive around November-December, then tank in February-March Currently I've been cooking lobs for around 100k/hr and flipping guthix sets to save up enough to buy a few under the assumption that they'll drop to under 7m in Spring 2024

[@shrach8]

and if they dont, youll have to double the effort to get them next time u want them

[@Encephalophage]

@@shrach8 Very much a valid risk

[@entryman]

@@shrach8there’s a limit to how much gp they will cost due to being able to buy that with irl cash. Like a exaggerated example would be if bonds went for 100m it would break the game at the price they cost..

[@slaterbrazeal3396]

Lol hope you got your bond brother but you were SOL on the price drop

[@cerval00]

This is the type of video that should be redone a few times a year just for information sake on how game updates, price fluctuations and new items/methods change the META

[@TheLKStar]

These are for entertainment only, if you need a video every time you're gonna flip you don't really know what you're doing. If you want to learn how to flip any one of these videos is enough to learn the mechanics and the rest is just analyzing the market.

[@MohammadChughtaiH]

DUDE - I just started a f2p account just now. Such good timing

[@therenzix]

Btw I started a few months ago and went from f2p to p2p and now have 2 bonds saved up. I know I could buy the membership but this is my Ironman without doing a actual Ironman as a newer player. I saw one of your videos and was able get make a 1.5 mil from buying small fish nets. Thanks

[@riccipena5227]

@flippingoldschool so this is just a random question would you recommend looking at the price by the loot tracker before selling instead of just going off of what the price says on runelite?

[@Gws_2]

whats the GE plugin at the end?

[@texasred5250]

I remember I quit OSRS temporarily after beating most of what you can do in aF2P because bonds are too hard to grind for without being mid/end game. Realistically putting an investment of 1-3 months of membership then you can grind them yourself

[@miciso666]

I remember getting a bryo. Sold it for bond and grinded 2 bonds out of that 😅

[@shroomer3867]

I used the Twitch bond to get p2p and it’s been really grindy since I was able to get a bond just at the end of the two weeks but my account progress didn’t have as much potential, would recommend just going members to play and get quests and unlocks first

[@Bjbazooka]

What was your total playtime on this account?

[@mack4691]

Here's a flipping tip. Try pressing the lower price button or higher price button on the item to see what most people will input their price as since its a preset. Then you can adjust your price from there to get the best deal.

[@RIDGELAKE101]

Hey I think the Addy axes and legs are so irratic cause people use those things for high alchemy?

[@tustinbear5831]

[@MurdaMacJones]

What program is he using?

[@DevonWapskuJohnson]

I was attempting to buy a bond from straight gains. But a friend started playing which I never thought would happen, and their brother is guiding them and assisting and got them membership. She owed me money and said I should play with her so I promised I'd treat myself and buy myself membership to join the fun. 2 weeks into my membership now and fletching is almost 70, agility is 50 and we talk a lot about OSRS now. Afking a lot of the same skills tg. So it's been pretty cool

[@DevonWapskuJohnson]

I made up to 1.4mil from gains. But it being 10mil makes it feel like an incredibly slow climb. So membership ain't too bad to boost my levels and money to hopefully get another bonds worth maybe by the end of my membership.

[@ChefJeff003]

My f2p account is approaching 300m in worth. At this point I'm just logging in once a day to update offers. Once you get past 100m, I find it really hard to actually spend it all on nightly flips. A lot of the 300m is invested in adamantite bars and just sitting in the bank. My thought is buying the bars for sub 1850 and selling them for at least 1950 whenever the price spikes. Or I just smith them all into platebodies and alch them for profit.

[@shroomer3867]

I would’ve said be careful since GE prices can drop if bots suddenly started doing adamantite but if you have the smithing to make high alchable stuff wuth it then sure you’ve at least got a plan b

[@ChefJeff003]

​@@shroomer3867 yeah, smithing and alching is plan b. Assuming Nature runes don't go to 750 per rune, I can always smith the bars for profit. 1850 × 5 = 9250. Platebodies alch for 9986, leaving a margin of 736. Current Nature Rune price us 135, so I make 600 per smith and alch. Current account value is now 373m. On top of doing nightly flips and collecting Adamantite Bars, now I'm venturing into collecting Beginner clue rares like Bear Feet and Jester Capes. The Mole Slipper fiasco had me intrigued, but I dont want to do Mole Slippers (even though they're up 300% in the last month).

[@e_eyster]

One odd item that I saw spike today was Strawberries. When doing farming runs I just grow those too as they tend to sell in the 190gp range each. Today dropped in a 1k stack at 195 and they snap sold for 350ea

[@e_eyster]

Still going on too... did another batch of 1k at 250 each today. Snap sold for 365 each

[@NoahfFs]

Been waiting for this one.

[@aivanturha1]

I love this type of content and love to flip myself. On another hand I will say it's a little silly to ''escape f2p to p2p for free'' with the caveat of buying a paid supscription in ge tracking, no? :D It's a decent bit harder to do this without the added real time market knowledge.

[@ZeliardFTW]

This looked pretty solid, the only problem is with the grand exchange, it used to have a quest point limit, but now it has a timer limit (I think it like 20 hours of actually being logged in for FTP), so that's a painful part for a NEW character, having to log in and not doing anything during that time. As you can't sell a lot of "common" items that are traded. How did you get around this? I mean a not newly created FTP account wouldn't have this issue, but "Just for a video" I am wondering how you in your free time got the hours in a account you didn't play. I must be missing something ;) Great Video!

[@BryanM86]

I wouldn’t say playing the game normally is “not doing anything”

[@TheIcahmay]

What website are you using to check the item prices? I can't seem to find it

[@Coolcatkilla5]

nice video. thank you!

[@lizzlemmon6895]

Is stuff that is sold on f2p worlds able to be bought on members worlds? The zammy full helm is a master clue item and a lot of the Adamant items are clue stash items and if members can buy them that might be why the prices fluctuate since people don't want to wait for their clue items to buy for less.

[@darksoulsgod4062]

I remember being in school farming big bones and limp roots and running to the bank and selling 500 of each just to get all the god armours

[@lexiatel]

I learned how to flip from your videos, you make it looks so easy! Anytime I invest in a higher priced item, they tank 😂😂😂 I have made 17m flipping super cheap items though. Since I'm a skiller, I focus on items that I can use if the prices sink. I'll try to dabble more with the pricier things soon, now that I have a good bank.

[@fissionphoenix4995]

I sometimes wish I had the patience to spend time doing flips at the ge but I find I prefer to just do herb runs and dailies to try to keep/maintain membership... that said I did buy a year of membership last year and I might end up doing so again anyway so that I can just reinvest gold into continuing to level my account rather than on just barely keeping it going. I think something I should do is invest in augry and rigour asap since they'd help my pvm more than probably much of anything else at this point.
