Market Strategy

  • Investment Notes
  • Pinned at the 1 gp alchemy floor; almost no flip margin
  • Demand tied to Farming patch runs and fruit-based Cooking training
  • Crafting baskets is rarely profitable due to willow branch cost
  • Shop runs from Grand Tree and Brimhaven beat GE for ironman supply

Trading Tips

Buy in bulk for Farming run prep; resale margins are negligible
Compare against sack supply for cheap container alternatives
