19-Dec-2012 - Squeal of Fortune: Tradeable Christmas Gifts

Santa’s sleigh has been hit by turbulence, scattering Christmas gifts across Gielinor. Collect sets of these presents to claim some fine festive fare – including a new rare cosmetic item!

Depending on which combination of missing presents you collect, you can get mince pies; mistletoe, complete with a kiss emote; a Christmas pudding amulet that grants bonus XP as you train; or a rare, tradeable Christmas tree hat! Claim a reward for a single present, or collect a set of up to five different presents for even better rewards! The presents are tradeable player-to-player - although not on the Grand Exchange - so meet up and get swapping to collect all five different colours! While blue and green presents can be used by free players and members, the red, white and purple presents are for members only.
tradeable gift rewards

Like strange rocks, the missing gifts can be found randomly on monsters, or while skilling. They can also be won on the Squeal of Fortune itself. The presents will be dropping in the world and will be available on the Squeal of Fortune between Wednesday 19th December 00:00 GMT until Monday 31st December 23:59 GMT.

Inspect a present for information on how to swap it for a reward or combine it into a set. If you still have presents in your possession in the new year, you’ll still be able to trade them in for rewards until Tuesday January 14th 2013; after then, the presents will disappear. Full details can be found on the official FAQ.

You can purchase spins here, or by clicking “Add Spins” next to the wheel in Squeal of Fortune. Don’t forget that subscribing will bag you two daily spins instead of one. If you’re hunting for ways of getting extra spins, check out our Squeal of Fortune wiki page.

Tradable gifts + Squeal of Fortune? Wouldn't this be another form of buying spins and thus "real-world trading" because we can invest cash to unlock rare items, then we can trade these items same as that Fish Mask, thus creating further tradable rares in the game?

The rumor that Jagex was trying to fix a mistake where past rares skyrocketed is a myth. I expect there will be more and more items such as Fish Mask found on SoF and Solomon as the days go by.
New money-making methods with 0 skills needed.

"The christmas tree hat is obtained from the Squeal of Fortune or from collecting all five coloured presents (Dragonstone purple present, Ruby red present, Emerald green present, Sapphire blue present, and Diamond white present)"

"Though it is tradable, it is not available on the Grand Exchange . It will not be able to be obtained after 31st of December 2012, and will be removed 2 weeks later, on 14th January, 2013."

The full set of all presents (except purple) is 1m at Draynor lodestone world 2. You can instant flip this for 3m by changing to a different world.

The prices will skyrocket for these presents starting December 31st 2012, and will be playing a game of Russian Roulette with whom ever gets stuck with them by January 14th 2013.

Christmas Tree Hats sell for 50m on Grand Exchange. Should you luck in to a drop or SoF spin of a Purple Present you instantly combine that with your set for instant profit of 49m. Or you can try your luck but I think it will fall same as Fish Mask because it's not a true rare of sorts as with those from 10+ years.
