Broad-tipped bolts: 1,613,381 gp (65.88%)

buy/sell:

Comments: Was meant to be a long inactive flip but i held the bolts long enough due to inactivity for a few days and the slow buys. So I believe I can put it in as an investment. Havent really logged into rs for a couple of days.

Investment #29: 07/27/2013 - 08/04/2013   
Coal: 22,149,915 gp (3.84%)

Before buying:

While Selling:

buy/sell:

Comments: coal: bought amount = 2,510,622, sell amount = 2,528,295 since i got coal off squeel and slayer.. so i took average of the sell and recalculated sale price and put it in.. That said, Coal had been dropping for a long time so i figured it hit rock bottom so i started buying in specially cos its coal and its a safe item so i bulked it as you can see. Decided to sell off since I found a buyer on forums so it saves time rather than selling part by part and its going up right now. As you can see i sold coal in bulk in transaction. Also I was highly inactive this week so just blocked up money in coal. Also, Adri thanks a lot for the support on this one . Julij2, Connor, Kelly, Billious thanks for the advice xD.

Investment #30: 08/04/2013 - 08/07/2013   
Dharok's helm: 874,915 gp (1.48%)

Before buying:

While Selling:

buy/sell:

Comments: Was a graph based investment, but it never really rose. And I was told that it was a crappy item so i just dumped it. Still made some profits, might take off soon but idk could take a week or 2 for that. TOO SLOW and dead item.

Investment #31: 07/30/2013 - 08/07/2013

Investment #32: 08/08/2013 - 08/13/2013   
Virtus gloves: 2,150,000 gp (10.57%)

buy/sell:

Comments: This was supposed to be an overnight snipe. But well the prices were dropping and then adopt a member competetion started a day later. Also when i logged on in the morning i noticed that i lost 15m on overnight infinity robe sets.. So i lost interest in flipping on my main for a couple of days. So i let these sit in ge buy box for 3-4 days and then removed and sold them. I believe these can be counted as an investment since it was held for a duration of over 3 days even though i didnt remove them from ge slot, was only buying one as it is. That day i did 20 infinity sets, 100 furies, these, torva gloves and 2 other items..

Investment #33: 08/08/2013 - 08/13/2013

Tin ore: 718,850 gp (34.04%)

before buying:

after selling:

buy/sell:

Comments: I have been looking at all ores and noticed that over the last 3 months all ores fluctuated a lot... When i pced tin ore it was crashing like mad so i was like hmm i can buy in. And well this was a pretty good investment for it being tin ore lol. Ya i missed out on the sale on my other account which is why the % profit is low because it started dropping and i never bothered to check my f2p noob for selling the ore..

Investment #35: 08/14/2013 - 08/16/2013   
Yellow partyhat: 21,000,001 gp (1.49%)

buy/sell:

Comments: First ever foray into party hats. All thanks to phileep for this one. Was going to completely stop flipping/investing. So decided to convert bank to partyhat. And then it went down and back up lol so i just put an offer in while it was going up and next thing i know it sold..Did this after looking at drygore prices after a month lol and they seem pretty low..So yea my first ever partyhat ! All thanks to phileep all credit for this should and does go to him for giving me the idea of buying one

Investment #36: 08/06/2013 - 08/16/2013   
Grimy tarromin: 5,664,819 gp (31.67%)

before buying:

after selling:

buy/sell:

Comments: This was a 2 account investment. Did it because i have 1 f2p account and well i had lost mems on both my noobs so i was looking at f2p items at that point of time. This is only a partial investment still selling and buying more stock on other acc due to crash but ya this is how it looks like so far . Self found item based on graphs and a ridiculously insane pc which was 60-80 gp when i started buying initially. Good item for low budget investments . And i know most of my items are items that normal people wont invest into hehe. So enjoy the freak show

Investment #37: 08/12/2013 - 08/15/2013   
Copper ore: 751,029 gp (32.19%)

before buying:

after selling:

buy/sell:

Comments: Since I did invest in tin ore and this graph was also dropping i was like hmm lets do copper ore too on f2p noob. So bought in on 2 accounts and well i just dumped half of it when i noticed it was going up and then instant sold the rest today since i was updating the log as it is.

Investment #38: 08/17/2013 - 08/21/2013

before buying:

after selling:

Comments: Not an investment that I am proud of. But still an investment all the same. Thought I could sell higher but didnt work on the trial sample. Miss the live graphs.

Investment #39: 08/15/2013 - 08/23/2013   
Royal torsion spring: 9,526,677 gp (61.9%)

before buying:

after selling:

buy/sell:

Comments: Thought these were veryyy low on price. Still are but i got a good sell price so im not gonna complain about selling. That said I would still buy into these again cos well at around 100k each these are cheap...

Investment #40: 08/23/2013 - 08/25/2013   
Rocktail soup: 12,750,000 gp (17.89%)

buy/sell:

Comments: Not a graph based investment. More of an update based one. Rocktail soups limit is now 10k/4 instead of original 100/4. And i have been following/inactive flipping them on and off. So i went inactive on friday and before i went inactive I bought these and removed from ge, since i was buying other stuff to invest in. So I think these should count as an investment, since I held onto them for more than 24 hours and removed from ge before selling.

Investment #41: 08/19/2013 - 08/21/2013   
Yew seeds: 4,786,500 gp (25.72%)

before buying:

after selling:

buy/sell:

Comments: Not bad for an investment . Graph based and bought in at proper time. Sold some for high. Noticed that the rest wouldnt sell and saw the item almost crash plus needed ge slot so insta sold the rest.

Bandos chestplate: 9,338,435 gp (10.78%)

while buying:

after selling:

buy/sell:

Comments: All gwd stuff has been dropping so i decided to buy in when i thought it was at an all time low. However it went down and rose again as you can see. Needed cash for other investments and i think it wont really go too much higher than where it is at now specially since nex gear is going up atm.

Investment #3 and #4 added  noobish item = cheese but successful haha

I like that cheese investment to be honest.
It was risky but not so much risky but you read the graph properly.
I am pretty sure if you invested way more in it you could have done some decent profit.
Great job so far

Dear Gonecase,

The skill necklace investment shows off the investment skills you have .

Not to missunderstand, low wealth flipping with high margins is incredibly hard! Keep going and keep your log updated please!
