Forjadora Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 What is so special about mint cakes? ive heard they're used a lot for junking? but how do u get them and what makes them so expensive?
Ultra Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 u get them by playing a mini game but they are extremely rare and i heard it takes up to weeks to get one its an item with a huge street price, they are so expensive because richfags made them that
Mike1 Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 You do not need to play the mini game, just complete a quest.
Forjadora Posted January 3, 2010 Author Posted January 3, 2010 in the vid it says mint cakes are worth 5m, but i checked in GE and its like 25k?
Smited B O W Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 the time to get them would make it worth 5mill but the item itself is only worth 500 gp (it restores run) same with pirate hook, pods ect
Briggsy Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 seems great, but i dont have 5m junk atm... unless i somehow have a crashing item
Jamie|SparcX Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 in the vid it says mint cakes are worth 5m, but i checked in GE and its like 25k? try buying one at 25k and see if it buys :)
Beastdefire Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 They're good for staking...and RWT I guess...because of their high street price and very very low GE price.
Sam|Hooded Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 It's such a random thing to have a high price on. I'm still not 100% on why their street value is 5m
gfdgfd Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 Things like this are stupid, at the end of the day, you're still paying 5m to be able to trade it for 5m, you have to either buy the junk, or spend ages getting 5m worth, in which time you could of got 5m worth of non-junk, people are wasting their time.
Vlooieneuker Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 just a random item and like Mike said, you get one FOR FREE during a quest. you can also get them from the gnome minigame where you cook gnome food and deliver it to gnomes all over runescape, the reward can be goggles, scarf, gnome food and of course: a mint cake. the street value will drop when jagex increases chances of getting it from the minigame and when everyone finds out that it isnt a discontinued item.
S U C K Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 I say we take the price of Iron Daggers and let's value them at 254m! Do I get my partyhat now? :O
Larzi Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 Why wouldn't you pay 5M? oh god i would. :omg: Me three!
I Maytag I Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 I think everyone is forgetting the real reason mint cakes are so expensive. You can use them to stake. Buy an expensive item like a partyhat for 250M (just an estimate) + 100M in junk. Stake for 20 mintcakes and u can make your junk back. I -wouldn't ever spend money on that shit but I just wanted to remind people why idiots are buying it
Silenced Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 Mint cakes are also used to sell crashing items for normal price. Since they have high street value and low ge value people use it for many reasons... Personally I wouldn't buy em but I have obtained em from the quest Path of Glouphrie and you don't need the slayer requirement, just the agility and thieving one. Hoped i help a bit :nice:
Pieter Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 u get them by playing a mini game but they are extremely rare and i heard it takes up to weeks to get one its an item with a huge street price, they are so expensive because richfags made them that it's not hard and rare at all, you can get one per day by trading a 3k item to a guy after the path of glouphrie quest, I do it on my main.
Finally Ownage Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 Their price is dropping like a balloon tied to a brick. Still, 4mil ish is pretty high, and the reason for this is because they are used as duel stakes. Best use if you have one is to buy a rare (say a Green Mask. Suppose trade price is 40mil, but street price is 52mil, you just add 3 cakes + 40mil and buy the Mask). Works really well.
