• Buy at (instant-sell): 402 gp

The flip, step by step

1. Place a buy offer at or just above 402 gp (the current instant-sell price).
2. Wait for the fill. Lime is liquid right now, so expect fills within the hour at reasonable prices.
3. Re-list at or just below 403 gp (the current instant-buy price).
4. The GE takes 8 gp tax (2%) per item when it sells, leaving -7 gp profit each.
5. Repeat up to the buy limit (13,000 per 4 hours), a full cycle is -91,000 gp on 5,226,000 gp of capital.
