    So with the release of all these plot stuffs, who's making some decent profit by sniping/reselling?
    Ive made about 5m so far by sniping and reselling and I still have some stuff stashed. anyone else?

    Yeah I have about 5 put away that I got yesterday for under 500k each. Right now I'm just overpaying with my abed items for more pbs :) So if any of you guys are trading PBs and you get an offer of like 1.6 in relatively easy items it's probably me :p

    I actually found one on the wiz the rest were through trades newbies were selling low so I bought em up. Getting one for 1.2 or less is a deal right now so don't worry about it. If you JUST got one for two baby pbs on trades I was looking to trade for the same lot haha

    the last plot prize that actually mattered was the rmb/thc

    thats when they actually gave out plot prizes that were hard to obtain and could actually hold some value

    everything since then has just been junk

    and they just tanked the rotl which was their only other viable decent plot reward

    I didn't participate in the plot, but the Altador Strength Potions mean 700 strength in a day for ~30m. :D

    well personally for me its not worth the hassle of buying and selling and buying and selling and trying to get rid of things quick before they deflate and trying to figure out when their low so u can buy them to inflate

    its just a lot of unnecessary work for a few mil

    whereas past plot prizes...was easy, good things were expensive and hard to get, and if you bought it it was going to go up in the future

    now i just sit on plot points until they make me use them and at that time i buy what will benefit me most

    Yeah, it's a good philosophy and something I'll follow.

    That is to say, if you put in the time you can make much more than just a few mil! There's a lot of opportunities out there to get rich. I just really can't be bothered these days.
