To All You Wanting a "Full Rune Refund."
All items depreciate in value. ALL items. There is an excess amount of economic analogies on the boards rn so I won't waste my time on it. But your runes are just like all of those physical items that get old and worn out.
A common argument I found on the boards was that their runes can't lose value because they are virtual items. You know what I say to that? Fine! Keep your runes. Keep your runes and keep your rune pages, but they won't be used in the game. Whether you like it or not the new rune system is what will directly affect the game not your current runes.
Oh? You would like to sell your useless runes now? Great! 100 BE for marks,seals,and glyphs, and 300 for quints please.
