Is there a good f2p item that can be merched with 100k (me poor). It needs to be able to be sold fast and the price fluctuates a lot. Plz dont do the following:
Tell me im poor (i know already!)
Tell me i dont have enuff money to merch (i might, i might not)

There is no "perfect" merchanting item, and you definitely can't get started with 100k. Earn about 1 mil doing skilling or anything, and then try researching into the grand exchange. You can't go wrong with rune armor, though .

Best merching items are items that you can predict when they will rise or fall, and ride the waves like a surfer!
Also good are cheap items that everyone uses. Buy like 1M of the item at say 15 gp, sell at 16 gp, you make a Mil right there!

Considering that he is not gonna be the only person buying, and there are limits on how much you can buy on the Grand exchange, and he only has 100k, how exactly is he gonna get 1M of this magic item?

Apart from that, flipping in that way does work well.

I never said he could do it with 100k. I told him a general method

You can start with 1k if you wanted...just because you dont have a huge amount of capital on hand is no reason not to start off with that.

Someone that I know started off with 20k and now has 20M+ ... 6 weeks later, it is simply tougher in freeplay, these items may start you off but you need to get the timing right, buying when they get near to a historical low (or a low that has been a trend for the last month or two) and selling nearer the top

If something is too rigid in its fluctuations it is to be avoided as you will likely not be able to sell it for great profit as there is too much supply, similarly if it spikes then you should keep away...you could lose a months profit overnight.

Looking for those little fluctuations is what I do

Here's the thing, if you're going to start merchanting, don't expect to make extreme profits from one day. While you're merching, skill. Go out and fish some lobsters, chop down some yews. Most people who have multiple millions skilled a lot of the way there.

And some (like me) Bossed my way there
Either way merchanting can start off at any capital. As said. Its just finding items that kills me and why i have no idea how to merchant .

No you would end up with 1,066,666.6gp which is only a 66,666gp profit.

Um? You really did your math wrong.
Buy 1M fire runes at 15 gp: 15,000,000
Sell 1M fire runes at 16 gp: 16,000,000
And you end up with this much more: 1,000,000

Teller of falseness, it is you who did your math wrong.
He didn't mean one million of a product, but one million of wealth to use.
Nope, you're right.

Read it again. I have a feeling that English is not your best subject.

My English is just fine.

I believe the OP would like to stay in the 1m zone, anyways.

I was just using easy numbers as an example o.O. But the same principle can be applied to ANY money amount.

Guys, it does not matter who is right and who is wrong, since I did fire runes like that back in the day it is impossible to buy and sell that much quantity a week, let alone a few hours to make it worth your while so it is a moot point. If you wish to argue then take it to PM to figure out whose wording made it seem theyre wrong. It can be read both ways, 1M of wealth used OR 1M units...still, it hardly matters...it doesnt work anymore anyway.

The best thing to do though is simply plug away at it, you will not become super-rich overnight, but if you spend 20 minutes setting up your buys and sells and figuring out what to do tomorrow then go off and skill and pile your wealth back in rather than wasting it on junk that is of no use to you...you will find after a while all those 3-5%s added together have started to pay off...take green chaps or rune axes or anything after a while, once you have bought 1000 and sold 1000 you will have profit to buy 1040 and sell 1040, then buy 1095 and sell 1095, this is without considering that you will have the profit of 300 yews or more to add to the mix...of course I havent worked it out exactly but it is an example.

I usually just buy 100 rune kites , platelegs, scimmys or 2h's for like 500-1000 under mid and i make a nifty profit.

I used 1m as in 1,000,000gp not 1 million of the item. It was a mistake on my behalf.
I thought you said "Buy 1M worth of the item at..."

Yeah, I understand, it's cool lol.

Again, first, I never mentioned what the item would be, I was just using it as an example.
Second, this method works VERY well, if you split your merchanting over a couple of items that are really commonly used, instead of relying on one.
In fact, ANY merchanting is WAY better if you use more than one item. Mixing between common low price items, and common high price items wold probably be the best way to go.

Yeah, I looked at it again and I guess it is ambiguous.

Yeah that could be interperted as '1M WORTH' of the item, but no thats not what I meant! Sorry!

Flipping rune items is decent/lowish profit but it adds up.

Rune armor. People will always want it. Demand will never go down.

Is buying eyes of newts from port sarim and the selling them at ge for 200 coins a good idea.
Buy 28 eyes for 84 gp.
Sell 28 eyes for 200 gp each. (5.6k)
Found this after a while of digging into pages and pages of money making.

its quick money and eye of newts sell very fast.

But it has been wrecked by shop update .

No one is going to give their own little merchanting item, or else if they tell the item will crash so don't go around asking people.
An easy way to making a quick buck is by joining a merch clan (preferably smoking mils) until you get the hang of merching then ride solo for extreme profits

By telling one guy like me through pm the item will not crash. *gets power to crash any item* I thought clan leaders use u and dump the items before the clan members sell them. Arent merch clans disapproved by jagex?

Jagex looks down on them, but they are allowed. Of course, there are some merch clans that are devoted to actually price manipulation, and that the top members/leaders don't use their members as tools to make quick cash.
