About Lobster
The Lobster is a free-to-play food item in Old School RuneScape.
"This looks tricky to eat"
Over the last 30 days it traded between 96 and 114 gp on the Grand Exchange, averaging 101 gp. About 535,457 units changed hands per day. The price is up 2.1% across that window. The Grand Exchange buy limit is 6,000 every 4 hours. Selling one at the average price costs 2 gp in Grand Exchange tax.
Casting High Level Alchemy returns 42 gp, which is 58.4% below the 30-day average price, so alching a bought one loses money.
