Maybe have the person buy the item you want with runes instead of straight trading for runes?

Yup. I'll definitely be doing that c:

It's hard to find sellers sometimes and / or it's cheaper to buy it with runes.
I like to have a few just in case I want something really badly
ouo

Buy the runes and ask the seller to deliver in the form of items?

Haha I could do that I guess
