Dell Monti is a pirate that was added with the Personalised Shops update on 2 September 2009. He is located in Brimhaven, around the POH portal. He will give 40 free noted pineapples to those who have completed the easy Karamja Tasks, but only once a day (You do not need to wear the Karamja gloves). He will also give 40 free noted apples to those who have completed the elite Karamja Tasks. Unlike Bert, Dell does not directly transfer the pineapples or apples into the player's bank.

Trivia

  • Dell's name, like that of the cat Del-Monty, is a play on the American food production company Del Monte. They are probably most famous for their tinned fruit, especially pineapples.
  • When asked about his parrot, Dell will say that it kept telling him to "Pick up a penguin." This is a reference to the Penguin chocolate bar advertising campaign.
  • Around the time of release, the price of pineapples dropped sharply from 450 coins each to less than 100 coins due to an increase in supply. Players no longer needed to buy materials for supercompost if they could just get it for free. This also drove down the price of other supercompostable materials like calquat, mushrooms, and coconut shells.
