I really don't see why people buy corrupt dragon anyway. Seems like a waste of RS gold money to me. Since Corrupt dragon is the ideal F2P armour, PKers purchase the weapons because they help getting kills and clanners buy the armour in order to tank longer. But doesn't it vanish after something like 30 minutes? Yeah it does but in addition, it depends upon the way you use it. For example, if you're PKing and only employing a tainted dragon weapon to deal the final hit then clearly your weapon will last some time.

These one or two good hits are the difference from killing or being killed. With the drop(s) you would get, assuming that your PKing, it probably makes up for the high price of Corrupt Dragon. Especially if you are a pro Pker like Mic. You then make a significant profit. Additionally, the boots road cost was 25M (Leaf obtained the boots) while GE price was 8M? Thought it was the same. It appears that you can not wager money anymore.

The street price is the price at which someone is willing to pay for a product. The GE cost is just an automated way of recording transactions and upgrading the cost to follow that. Why do you believe that the GE prices change? Because people purchase and sell in the road costs via the GE and it upgrades the cost to match this.

Ever since I got back to RS a couple of months ago and finally became a member, I've noticed a large amount of players (mostly round the GEx) begging for cash. Now, I have personally never had more than 500K to my title. I have never had more than this and I have never actually set out to try and generate income. However, when I have needed to buy something expensive I have worked hard to cheap RuneScape gold produce the money I needed.
