Flipping Mithril arrowtips on the Old School RuneScape Grand Exchange currently makes about 4 gp profit per item after the 2% GE tax: buy near 46 gp (the instant-sell price) and re-list near 51 gp (the instant-buy price).

The flip, step by step

  1. Place a buy offer at or just above 46 gp (the current instant-sell price).
  2. Wait for the fill. Mithril arrowtips is extremely liquid right now, so offers at fair prices typically fill within minutes.
  3. Re-list at or just below 51 gp (the current instant-buy price).
  4. The GE takes 1 gp tax (2%) per item when it sells, leaving 4 gp profit each.
  5. Repeat up to the buy limit (10,000 per 4 hours), a full cycle is 40,000 gp on 460,000 gp of capital.
