Money making
Skilling pay, merchants, thieving, gems and daily tasks.
Skilling pays coins
Every skilling action pays coins straight into your inventory, on top of the resource:
- 40 coins per XP: woodcutting, mining, fishing, thieving, agility, farming, runecrafting, prayer.
- 15 coins per XP: cooking, fletching, firemaking, smithing, crafting, herblore, construction.
Higher-level resources pay more: a magic log is about 10,000 coins, a runite ore about 5,000, a shark about 4,400 (plus 3,150 to cook it).
Rare finds while woodcutting, mining, fishing or thieving: Blood key 1/600, Blood Mystery Box 1/3,000 and the Pebble pet 1/5,000.
Skill merchants
Each skilling spot has a merchant who buys what you make at a fixed price:
| Merchant | Where | Buys (examples) |
|---|---|---|
| Ore merchant | Falador mine | Ores and essence - runite 2,800, adamantite 310, coal 55 |
| Metal merchant | Varrock | Bars and smithed items - runite bar 4,900, rune platebody 26,000 |
| Lumber merchant | South of Seers' | Logs - magic 500, yew 300, redwood 870 |

Thieving market
Teleports > Skilling > Thieving takes you to the Port Sarim market. Every stall appears twice: fruit (level 1) at the south end, gems (level 75) at the north. Expect about 165k coins an hour at the fruit stalls and up to about 1.28M an hour at the gem stalls.
Gem trader
Teleports > Skilling > Crafting takes you to the Neitiznot bank, next to the gem trader. He (and the Crafting merchant's tool shop) sells uncut sapphires (750), emeralds (1,000), rubies (1,350), diamonds (1,800) and dragonstones (2,500). Cutting a gem pays double its price in coins, and the trader buys the cut gem back for a fifth of its price, so each gem makes 900 to 3,000 coins plus Crafting XP. Other shops don't buy gems.
Crafting 1-99
Everything below is sold by the Crafting merchant's Buy tools shop at the Crafting spot south of the Seers' flax field (next to the furnace and spinning wheels). The Neitiznot gem trader (Teleports > Skilling > Crafting) sells the chisel, needle, thread, leather and uncut gems too. Buy a needle (27) and thread (10 each, one is used per item) once and a chisel (57) for the gems.
| Level | Make | Buy |
|---|---|---|
| 1-7 | Leather gloves (needle on leather, 13 XP) | Leather 132 + thread |
| 7-14 | Leather boots (7), cowl (9), vambraces (11) | Leather + thread |
| 14-20 | Leather body (14, 25 XP), leather chaps (18, 27 XP) | Leather + thread |
| 20-27 | Cut sapphires (50 XP) | Uncut sapphire 750 |
| 27-34 | Cut emeralds (68 XP) | Uncut emerald 1,000 |
| 34-43 | Cut rubies (85 XP) | Uncut ruby 1,350 |
| 43-55 | Cut diamonds (108 XP) | Uncut diamond 1,800 |
| 55-99 | Cut dragonstones (138 XP) | Uncut dragonstone 2,500 |
Every gem you cut pays double its price in coins and sells back to the gem trader for a fifth, so from level 20 Crafting makes money. Leather is the cheap start: the Crafting merchant pays little for leather armour, so your coins come from the skilling pay, not from selling it.
