At the moment, Robin Hood hats are 3.8 mill and Armadyl helmets are 3 million. I'm not too interested in looking like I 'pown', so I sold my Robin, bought an Armadyl and made 800k in the process!

Deaths were buying for 2 gp over mid and selling for 2 gp under max. I made over 400k for doing nothing basically.

Death runes and nature runes are good runes to merch. Nature runes can always be bought below mid and sold above mid. But sometimes it takes more time.

It does not fall exactly under merching, but currently making tuna potatoes is 1k profit per item. This is if you buy all items from scratch. Cooked tunas are cheaper than uncooked, so the profit is more and it is faster if you buy cooked tuna.

would just like to add a couple of things
i had originally noticed black hatchets were way more than normal when i was killing some abby demons which commonly drop them (about 5k each at the time, normally like 700 gp) because i used to alch them, as they used to be a worthwhile alch (aka more than the cost of a nature rune & a free drop)
just under a week later they were about 8k (which is when i originally posted about this)
they are now over 17.5k ... i bought 2k and just dumped them for 20m+ profit (they all sold instantly btw, so the merch is likely still going on) and it paid for my 90-92 prayer :D

now is certainly too late to buy some :(

i don't support price manipulation clans but, that's no reason to not take advantage if you see a monster merch taking place

i guess what i'm saying is... if i see another crazy one ... i'll post it here as a heads up :)

Raw Sharks are cheaper than cooked ones............................

If you can cook a load with 3 or less burning, you can get free xp!

This isn't GE related, but still relevant to taking advantage of a money-making opportunity. This is a quote from Paperbag, a well-known player wanting 200m in all skills:

"Also one large reason I'm trying to get rich again is so I can get some friends who love dg to key for me so I can sit at homebase just afking :) I would pay people good money to do that. So maybe I can actually get 120 dg! I will try this after 200m farming in a few months. I'm definitely willing to pay 1 to 2m a dungeon. "
