Game developers believe in the player-driven in-game economy, so they have removed all item price restrictions, and the only forced limitation is currently the maximum quantity of an item which can be bought every 4 hours each item/item type has its own limit Jagex will only intervene at the last resort when price fixing and manipulating gets off the charts and becomes unhealthy for the in-game economy.
Safeguard Trade restrictions are set on the Grand Exchange in order to limit price manipulation, real-world trading, and unfair Player interactions. There are 6 NPC Guides who show the current prices of various item types (named the same in both OSRS and RS3): Hofuthand (Armors and Weapons), Murky Matt (Runes He can also Decant your charged items), Bob Barter (Herbs He can also Decant your potions), Relobo Blinyo (Logs), Farid Morrisane (Ores), and Brugsen Bursen (Items price guide in OSRS, and Grand Exchange information in Runescape 3). Transactions are conducted automatically and a chat notification is sent to a Player each time a transaction is completed, which means that the only thing that Players have to do is post up their Offers there is no need for any Player to Player interaction when using the GE (this means that you can stay anonymous at all times which might be important when flipping or trying to manipulate prices.). It is located North-West of the Varrock city in both versions of the Game. It was released on 26th of November 2007 in the Runescape and on 26th of February 2015 in the OSRS, after Players have voted for it in the official pool. The Grand Exchange is the in-game trading system which lets Players Sell and Buy almost all tradable items F2P Players are limited to 3 active listings, while Premium Members can post up to 8 trade offers (this means that Free Players will have a much harder time using the GE to their advantage). Before we go into details, let us start by covering some basic, general, and most importantly, useful information: The GE is almost exactly the same in this two RS versions, so we have decided to cover the topic together for both games and point out any important differences (like popular items, and available online statistic tools).
