Vial price in OSRS — live Grand Exchange data

About Vial

In game it is examined as “An empty glass vial.” Vial is available to free-to-play accounts. The base game value is 2 gp, which is what shops price from rather than what players pay.

Vial buy limit

The Grand Exchange lets one account buy 13,000 every 4 hours. That is a generous limit, so the market rather than the limit is usually what caps a position here. Filling it once costs about 39,000 gp at the 3 gp price recorded on 11 October 2026. The limit is per account and resets on a rolling 4-hour timer.

GE tax on Vial

The 2% sale tax is rounded down, and at 3 gp it rounds to nothing — sales under 50 gp are untaxed, so a flip here keeps its whole margin.

High alching Vial

High alchemy turns one Vial into 1 gp. That is less than the 142 gp nature rune the cast costs, so alching Vial always loses money.

How much Vial trades

Vial sees about 1.11M trades a day, which makes it one of the busiest items on the Grand Exchange — orders at a fair price fill in minutes. That is roughly 85 times the 13,000 buy limit.
