Value

Every item in Old School Near-Reality has a static value in coins predetermined by Near-Reality. Value is used to determine how much an item is worth to Non-player characters and to the game. Value is used in the following features in the game:

Actions that Turn Items to Coins

Spells

• High Level Alchemy - Gives coins equal to $\left\lfloor 0.6\times Value\right\rfloor$ of the item High Level Alchemy was cast on.
• Low Level Alchemy - Gives coins equal to $\left\lfloor 0.4\times Value\right\rfloor$ of the item Low Level Alchemy was cast on.

Store Prices

• General stores - These stores buy items starting at Low Level Alchemy amount ($\left\lfloor 0.4\times Value\right\rfloor$), with some notable exceptions, and then depreciates the amount of coins given with every subsequent purchase.
  • Martin Thwait's Lost and Found - This store buys items starting at High Level Alchemy amount ($\left\lfloor 0.6\times Value\right\rfloor$) and then depreciates the amount of coins given with every subsequent purchase.
  • Bandit Duty Free - This store buys items starting at High Level Alchemy amount ($\left\lfloor 0.6\times Value\right\rfloor$) and then depreciates the amount of coins given with every subsequent purchase.
  • West Ardougne General Store - This store buys items starting at $\left\lfloor 0.55\times Value\right\rfloor$ and then depreciates the amount of coins given with every subsequent purchase.
• Specialty stores - Every specialty store has their own starting price to offer for items they stock. Prices are based on value and are typically around High Alchemy value.
• Overstocked stores - A store will offer less money to buy items, the higher the current stock of that item in the store is. Whenever a store's stock is high enough that the price of an item has depreciated down to a value of $\left\lfloor 0.1\times Value\right\rfloor$, the item's price will not depreciate any further. This means items will always be bought by stores that accept the item for at least a tenth of the item's value, rounded down.

Miscellaneous

• Items Kept on Death Value - Nearly all untradeable items use their value as their Items Kept on Death Value.

• Value can also be interpreted as the summation of the High and Low Alchemy coin return of any particular item (0.6 + 0.4 = 1.0), although due to flooring this may be slightly lower than the real value.
