About Papyrus

Papyrus are a members-only item in Old School RuneScape.

"Used for making notes"

Over the last 30 days they traded between 65 and 110 gp on the Grand Exchange, averaging 93 gp. About 4,131 units changed hands per day. The price is down 28.4% across that window. The Grand Exchange buy limit is 13,000 every 4 hours. Selling one at the average price costs 1 gp in Grand Exchange tax.

Casting High Level Alchemy returns 6 gp, which is 93.5% below the 30-day average price, so alching a bought one loses money.
