Been with a good merchanting community and have made a good sum of money. I went from 20m to 33m within a few days. Sadly, most merchanters aren't too fond of bots =D. Anyone else have success merchanting at all?

i have a lot of success went from about 5 mil to 120 mil in a month and a half. what was the community? im always struggling for good items to invest in :(

Mind sharing advice? :)

making sets from components is an easy one to do (infinity used to be 700-800k profit a set). also just try buying an item that you know people are willing to sell low, for example emeralds. then buy 1000 below market sell above and you will soon pick it up. the hardest part is finding the items to buy i have always found soft clay to be a reliable one.

I used to make a little money buying broken barrows parts, repairing them in a poh, and packing them into sets. Problem is, there isn't a good supply of broken barrows parts.

I've never been able to get straight buying/selling to work for me, at least not since the GE was introduced (so, a long time). Do you suggest short-term flipping, or holding on to stuff long-term, or what? I have 30+M capital, but no idea how to use it :p

Google lumbridgecity. Go to the forums and they have a lot of guides there on it. It really isn't that hard once you learn the basics and some of the trends. I don't do too much long term flipping because i don't have enough money to let sit on that for long periods at a time. Sometimes i will hold items over night or for the course of a few days, but i mainly stick to short-term flipping.

There are so many items you can flip. If you check out some of the ways to do it and start trying different items, you will eventually get the feel for it and start making some decent money.
