Flipping is one of the most reliable ways to grow your bank in Old School RuneScape without skilling or combat — but the difference between a flip that compounds and one that quietly loses gold comes down to a handful of concepts: margins, the sales tax, buy limits, liquidity, and trends. These guides explain each one in plain English, with worked examples you can apply by hand or with GE Uncut.
