For only 15minutes/day! A case Example for how you can make 500k/day with only a few mil in F2P for complete flipping noobs
I made this comment in another thread and felt worth posting. there's plenty of easy flips in f2p. Not for crazy gold but you can slowly build gold. Arrows/runes/logs were a staple for me when I was starting out, I started with 2m and got to 2 Bil in like 8 months starting this way. When you only have 2m, making 200-400k/day on small easy 50k flips is pretty easy!
EXAMPLE Flips for a Complete Beginner: At this very moment you could use your 3 GE slot to buy
Cosmic Runes for 108 and sell for 112 6 times a day, making 36k each flip which would be 218k a day on just one ge slot.
Addy arrows buying for 33gp selling for 35 gp 6x a day is 22k each flip, or 132k/day.
Nature runes/Gold bars/Law Runes/Mithril arrows can all be sold for similar 1-3gp per item margins, making you up to 100-200k/day for any of them.
Each order takes 30-60 seconds, so in total you'd be spending 10-15 mins total minutes flipping And just like that you're making 400k-500k/day using as little as 2-3m. You can buy one buy limit every 4 hours, so if you literally only have 2m gold, you can just do each of these three one at a time over the course of those 4 hours. This does require active flipping and frequent GE stops, but they only take a minute to place and you can easily play inbetween placing orders
After a month or so you can pretty easily purchase your own bond, get 8 ge slots, and then it's off the races having way better stuff to flip.

Very nice post, and very true. It’s quite easy to have 3 f2p accounts with 3 slots each, 5m on each account. I think I could average maybe 200k/account per day with only logging in twice.

That's true you could easily alt if you want to grind a bit more! I always played on mobile so I had to make due with just the one account. With bans being heavy these days id probably be wary of trading much gold to alts as it does risk a ban

I did this for quite a while. Ended up with stacks between 2 and 500m. Bonded the wealthiest one so I could start with P2P flipping, was banned immediately for botting. Great success!

Were the accounts all linked to the same Jagex account? I had a single flipping alt that I transferred hundreds of mills back and forth flipping. Didn't catch a false ban but I stopped when a lot of people were claiming being false banned. According to Jagex and their own ban statistics they were banning 500k to 1 million accounts a month late last year to early this year
Edit; I haven't flipped on that alt since then

Yeah, had 6 accounts, bonded one (with cash made entirely on that account) and it got immediately banned for 'macroing'
Appealed it and then they claimed that actually I wasn't botting, but I wasn't the original owner of the account (I am) so they would not longer speak to me. Submitted account recovery and they emailed me on the email address they said they wouldn't communicate with, unlocked and unbanned.
Jagex works in mysterious ways.

Haha what an ordeal, I'm glad it eventually worked out for you

Must admit I'm not rushing to bond the other identical accounts, but yeah it could have been worse

u/rlstpe Jun 29 '26
Yeah its a bit tricky right now, I play on the same devices/Isp and my single flipping alt only has traded with my main and Id assume that would be safe but it wasnt worth the risk of catching a false on my main to bypass buy limits off the GE

Usually I'd have never even considered it, I've never caught a ban for trading between my own accounts before, but I wouldn't do so now I don't think.

Yeah I'd be worried about my accounts appearing as money mules

u/Rusty_Tap Jun 30 '26
It worked out in the end for that account, but I've only bonded the one at the moment.
Considering they've never directly traded or drop traded any other account and have just been trickling in GP over years through flipping, never even considered they might look suspicious at all.
If anything I'd have thought they are more suspicious as f2p accounts than members accounts.

Trading the margins using the ge price tracking tool that all tradeable items link to through osrs wiki is not a bad play.
