could a mod please fix the ge price? --Ian G R 19:29, 6 September 2008 (UTC)\


Rarity:Price[]

It says that the tooth half is slightly rarer than the loop half, so it sells for "slightly" more. I just looked it up on the GX, and the tooth half is over 50k, and the loop half is around 7-8k. Who is to determine the definition of slightly? I think that's not at all slightly different. However a particularly rich person would most likely find it to be rather insignificant. Pardon me if I'm wrong, but seeing as this is a sort of encyclopedia should relative adjectives like this even be used? Anyhoo, just my thoughts. :) Bobdog:) 07:17, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

I've been collecting key halves from randoms and monster drops, and I've gotten up to 43 of both. So one isn't rarer then the other.. Adult chameleon (automatic) Anurin Talk · Sign! . 00:48, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

Alch value[]

This has no alch value. I just high-alched one to see. Horsehead Talk 15:00, September 13, 2009 (UTC)

Price Before GE[]

I was looking at both halves, and both articles say that before the GE was introduced, both halves were selling at the same price. However, The Tooth Half says this is 45-55k, whereas the Loop half says 25-30k. If neither is right, I think this should be taken out of both articles, having that discrepancy in a wiki article undermines the overall quality.--Flameswarren 02:07, January 5, 2010 (UTC)

Rock Crabs : very rare drop[]

On friday 12th (2010), I got this half of a key. I was wearing a Ring of Wealth, so I think that made it happen.-

Rarity?[]

I have always collected and assembled half keys for myself, never sell or buy them. I would maintain that both key halves have exactly equal drop rates, but the tooth half is much harder to see or click on, due to its extremely small image and footprint. The loop half, while still small, is easily noticeable on top of bones or ashes, while the tooth half is nearly invisible. The number of tooth key drops lost due to players missing it was probably unforseen by jagex, but is responsible for their much higher price.


As a sample, I have probably collected well over 100 crystal keys in my playing time from monster drops and other rewards. Being a nit-picker who grabs every coin drop over 5 gp and always checking the pile, I don't think I miss very many teeth. I currently have 40 teeth half and 37 loops in the bank - statistically, this would indicate a 50/50 drop rate.  —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Pestface (talk) on 00:10, August 10, 2010.
