About Purple cape
The Purple cape is a free-to-play piece of equipment in Old School RuneScape.
"A thick purple cape"
Over the last 30 days it traded between 648 and 1,957 gp on the Grand Exchange, averaging 1,071 gp. About 323 units changed hands per day. The price is down 61.7% across that window. The Grand Exchange buy limit is 150 every 4 hours. Selling one at the average price costs 21 gp in Grand Exchange tax.
Casting High Level Alchemy returns 19 gp, which is 98.2% below the 30-day average price, so alching a bought one loses money.
