http://www.roblox.com/Guardia-Helm-item?id=17449403

After studying and logging the price trends of a few hats during late 2012 to early 2013, I decided to invest in Guardia Helms for a number of reasons, the most notable attributes being affordability, price fluctuation, and demand.

Here's what I've done:

1: Purchase Guardia Helms selling for less than 480 Robux,
2: Sell Guardia Helm for 730 Robux,
3: Make a minimum profit of about 30 Robux each time.

I started off by purchasing them at 250 Robux each, then re-selling them during their frequent price fluctuations at 400 Robux. This gave me a 30 Robux profit for every Guardia Helm I bought and sold. Combined with my daily Robux, I was making an average of 210 Robux a day once I got in the hang of it. Now this being said, I have used this method alone to make something of a rags-to-riches story. I've since accumulated 85 Guardias by using this method.

The fluctuation in price of Guardias is one of the fastest out of all ROBLOX hats. It may say there are a lot of owners, however, this was because the hat used to sell for only a few Tix before it went limited. This means that the vast majority of these owners were accounts with no form of Builders Club, and means that many more of them have since gone inactive on ROBLOX. This causes people to mis-judge the value of the hat all the time, and many people sell them for less money than they're actually worth. It is the most frequently sniped hat I've seen, which is perfect for keeping the value low, so you can sell it high when the RAP rebounds.


I am currently cashing out all of my Guardias for 43,435 Robux total(after tax!) This is enough money to buy many large items on ROBLOX today, such as:

Doombucket:

Linked Sword:
http://www.roblox.com/Linked-Sword-item?id=125013769

And if converted to Tix at a 22-1 rate (955,570 Tix), it would nearly surmount to a Blackvalk

Or, you could just buy 434 riptides =)

Regardless, this method has served me very well, and I highly recommend it to anyone attempting to make steady profit.

Forgive any clerical errors,
Cheers!

If any reader is interested in testing this method, I encourage you to track this thread so you can revisit and show your progress from time to time. It'd be neat to see other people using this strategy effectively.

Close to a year by memory.

Though exactly, by the numbers I gave, I've done the math:

My current RAP value in Guardias (averaged at 511(r) by selling at 730(r))
Divided by,
My rough statistic of 210 Robux daily
Equals,
206 days

So that's, in numbers:
43435/210 = 206.83(3,¯)

ANSWER: Round down to 206 even days

Keep in mind that these are rough statistics, and in reality I did not profit exactly 210 some days, and other days I profited more. I also spent a bit of the profit I made on other items, and was not strictly purchasing Guardias. Other times I would trade for Guardias using smaller limiteds that I picked up during sales, which leaves a bit of room for some rational inaccuracy with this mathematical run-down.

The guide notes around 480 in todays economy, but they often sell for less.
What'd you buy it at Chris?

That's what they've been going for most often, I usually don't buy for higher than that.

Alright now, the price of Guardias is being pressured up to 700+ Robux. Expect an upward trend in the graph while the RAP increases over time.

They've dipped back down to 350-450. Grab them to re-sell at 600.
