Flipping is a popular way to make RS Gold in Runescape 3, but with the introduction of a new tax, many players are wondering if flipping is still a viable way to make money. The answer is a resounding yes! Flipping is still alive and well, though there are some changes to the way you need to approach it. In this article, LOLTANK Will cover the changes to flipping, how to price check items, how to avoid taxes, and how to maximize your profits.

• Flipping is the new tax
• Bigger loss than before
• Avoid taxes
• Accurately update your items
• Flipping with other people
• Using alts
• Record your flips

Flipping is the new tax

This tax affects any item that is sold for 50 gold or more, meaning the margins are much bigger than before. This means that for an item like a Masterwork Period of Annihilation, you might see a margin of 7 million or more, which is a massive amount of profit. However, it also means that you will be losing money on your price checks when you buy and instantly sell an item. The best way to combat this is to use multiple accounts and spread out your buy limits. This way, you can negate the loss and still make a big profit.

Bigger loss than before

Another important change to consider is that if an item is currently falling in price, you will take a bigger loss than before. For example, if you buy an item for 341.5 and it starts dropping, you will likely get only 333.2 back when you sell it. This is a much bigger loss than you would have taken before the tax.

Avoid taxes

There is a way to completely avoid taxes if you want, and that is by flipping items that are worth less than 50 gold. An example of this would be an air rune, which is only 28 gold. You can buy and sell this item with no tax, and make a profit of two gold per flip.

Accurately update your items

Every item in the game that you are flipping has an amount of time that you should wait before you update the price. This can vary per item, but it's important to update regularly to avoid losses due to price changes. 

Flipping with other people

Flipping with a group is much better than flipping alone, as you can avoid the fee for price checking and avoid accidentally buying something too expensive. 

Using alts

Using alts to buy more than one account stock limit can help you to ignore the cost of price checking and maximize your profits. 

Record your flips

Keeping a record of the prices you pay and sell at can help you make a more educated guess as to where an item currently is, so you can start there on your next buy. 

In conclusion, flipping is still a viable way to make money, though there are some changes to consider. Keep in mind the new tax, how to price check items, how to avoid taxes, and how to maximize profits. With these tips in mind, you can still make a lot of RS Gold flipping items in the game.
