![]() ![]() My guide will be split into 4 parts, and I encourage everyone to read all 4 parts if they have never merched before and just the first and fourth part if you are experienced. My goal in making an in depth guide to merching is to show that merching is not only something very profitable but it is also something that I believe everyone can and should do. This leads to very ill informed merchers whom lose money as well as can really mess up market prices on items for players (yes 1 person CAN do that). When I began merching quite a while back I very quickly found that many guides and videos are ill-informed and provide no real substance, and instead show just an example of a few items that you can easily flip. Intro: I know that this subreddit has a fairly negative attitude towards merching so I would like to preface all of this by saying that we are only talking about one type of merching in this guide: “Flipping” so every time I say merching just keep in mind I am talking about the individual taking advantage of NATURAL price fluctuations in the GE. This one will earn you a ban.ĭisclaimer: You are about to read a WALL of text, I am also re-posting it from yesterday as i posted it at around 11:30 pm central time and it seemed as if all of 5 people looked at it For more information about account bans, click here.

The Clan Chat of merchanting clans is most of the time muted to unranked players, due to the massive amount of spam and hate messages that these clans receive.Submit a link Submit a text post Submit a game suggestion.The names of merchanting clans often change in accordance with the item being merched.Leaders of Merchanting Clans will often create a separate account with the username having the word Merch in it.In many cases, this leads to a significantly reduced profit, or even a substantial loss in money for the low ranks. Members of the clans themselves have been known to criticize, often accusing the founders and higher-ranked members of scamming players, because they often buy items to be merchanted before announcing the items to their lower-ranked members, and sell the merchanted items before announcing as well. ![]() ![]() Main points include interfering with the game play of all those who are not in the clan, due to the difficulty of purchasing an item being bought-out. These clans are often heavily criticized because their operations are nearly identical to the real-world practice of price manipulation. When the increasing price hits a certain mark, the clan sells their items, netting a profit. This is intended to trigger a massive price increase due to the Grand Exchange picking up the increased (albeit artificial) demand. Instead they pool their wealth together and buy out the entire stock of a particular item. They do not rely on natural market fluctuations to raise and lower prices. Nowadays, Merching Clans are significantly different than their predecessors. They used to be fairly rare, since solo-trading was easier and in some cases more profitable. Historically they were a collaboration of players who attempted to predict natural market shifts and making advantageous investments. ![]()
