About Herring
The Herring is a free-to-play item in Old School RuneScape.
"Some nicely cooked herring"
Over the last 30 days it traded between 9 and 50 gp on the Grand Exchange, averaging 22 gp. About 12,499 units changed hands per day. The price is down 5.0% across that window. The Grand Exchange buy limit is 6,000 every 4 hours.
Casting High Level Alchemy returns 6 gp, which is 72.7% below the 30-day average price, so alching a bought one loses money.
