How to flip Raw herring in OSRS

Flipping Raw herring on the Old School RuneScape Grand Exchange currently makes about 14 gp profit per item after the 2% GE tax: buy near 128 gp (the instant-sell price) and re-list near 144 gp (the instant-buy price).

The flip, step by step

  1. Place a buy offer at or just above 128 gp (the current instant-sell price).
  2. Wait for the fill. Raw herring is extremely liquid right now, so offers at fair prices typically fill within minutes.
  3. Re-list at or just below 144 gp (the current instant-buy price).
  4. The GE takes 2 gp tax (2%) per item when it sells, leaving 14 gp profit each.
  5. Repeat up to the buy limit (15,000 per 4 hours), a full cycle is 210,000 gp on 1,920,000 gp of capital.
