Old Style Merchanting
Just my thoughts on the subject, but with the revival of Rs2007 and pre ge it will bring back the old style of merchanting that i love so much actually engaging with other players.
Things to be careful of are definitly scammers
Always check trade screens

Other things to watch out for is being well educated about the thing you want to buy sell, so you won't buy/sell it for a crazy price!
Re: Old Style Merchanting
definitly, Logs are a good thing to start on scope out the prices then go for it

Re: Old Style Merchanting
Yeah, the biggest "scam" to be aware of right now is someone putting up a price like 4K and then putting up items (ie- trout, logs, etc) and then removing some of the items, putting other stuff instead, and then changing the GP price to something like 400, then 40, etc.

I love the Old School Merchanting.
You're right, it does bring back the opportunity to engage with players.
Pre-GE in my opinion does require a lot more work, in some aspects, but it definitely pays off.
And yeah, merchants in 07' Runescape get more recognition for what they're buying and selling too. Which sort of helps with the whole process of arbitrage.

And also the scam of someone saying "BUYING [X] FOR 200K" and then have his friend going "SELLING [X] FOR 50K" when the item is worth 2k.
Re: Old Style Merchanting
