Nice layout for us advisers to read.

First, you should get a Greater Healing Scroll to replace your Green Scorchstone.  It is cheaper and heals more than the Green Scorchstone.  That could probably raise your budget to 500,000 Neopoints.

I'd sell your "Useful Weapons in Your Safety Deposit Box" if I were you, apart from the Leaf Shield.  Also, sell the Winged Scarab since your strength and defence are (almost) even.  Sell your Frozen Wand of Crystals and Cloudy Wand of Storms as well, and that should give you just a little less than one million to work with.  Get a Purple Sticky Hand into your set and interchange the Leaf Shield and Patched Magic Hat between opponents.  You should also get a Honey Potion and Ramtors Spellbook.  That would take you a few days to get, but it'll be worth it.  Your new set:

Purple Sticky Hand
Downsize!
Leaf Shield
Greater Healing Scroll
Honey Potion
Sword of the Dead
Ramtors Spellbook
Golden Compass

Reason for selling Patched Magic Hat is that all the icons it blocks can be covered by Leaf Shield and Sword of the Dead already.

Green Scorchstone
Essence of Esophagor
Cloudy Wand of Storms
Frozen Wand of Crystals
Winged Scarab
Scarab Ring
Golden Compass
Sword of the Dead

First thing I see is your healer. Sell the scorchstone and replace it with greater healing scroll. It is cheaper and heals more. If you are going to drop 1p almost completely I suggest getting Jittery Jipple Potion and/or Steaming Skeem Potion. If not, you have several other alternatives like Scuzzys Comb, Staff of Righteous Fury, Stone Club, Ice Club. The only weapons I have a problem with are the two wands and winged scarab. As for the wands, I just don't see much of earth/water to consider them useful. I'd rather have a stone/ice club as a backup. The Winged Scarab is good for one player no doubt. I don't think it's very good for 2p though. Unless you are totally goin away from 1p (or just configuring your set for 2p and then living with how it does for 1p like I do) I suggest you keep it in your SDB. You might want to put in a Downsize! as well as it's a great situational item. The Essence of Esophagor is fine, unless you would like to upgrade it. Also, you can switch out Sword of the Dead for Ethereal Sword, Amulet of Inevitable Betrayal, or Thief Dagger if you want. My suggested combo of all the advice I just gave you is this:

If you want a 2p only set:

Greater Healing Scroll
Downsize!
Scuzzys Comb
Jittery Jipple Potion
Steaming Skeem Potion
Scarab Ring
Golden Compass
Thief Dagger (because it wins against Comb/SoRF and you can use compass to win against RSB)

If you want a 2p set that's just as good in 1p:

Greater Healing Scroll
Downsize!
Scuzzys Comb
Stone Club
Steaming Skeem Potion/Ice Club (for 1p, SSP still does 8 icons meaning you don't necessarily have to switch it out)
Scarab Ring
Golden Compass
Thief Dagger/Winged Scarab (for 1p)

As for training, go to the 85 boosts, you're already part way there. Definetly don't train your level or hitpoints or move anymore untill your strength and defense are caught up (~100).

I think what I suggested was in budget (weapon wise), if not it's very close. You might want to hold off on buying the SSP, they haven't seemed to level in price yet and may be cheaper a week or more from now (except it seems to be about 20 less in circulation atm, so I figure someone is hoarding them....).

As for future weapons, I don't quite know because it depends on which set you pick. But you definetly want to get the 85 boosts before you upgrade weapons again

Edit: Wilt beat me... But I agree and say that you should get a Purple Sticky Hand for some 1p opponents (aka, throw it in your SDB) As for the selling of your other weapons in your SDB, I'm not familiar with pretty much any of those, so I don't know.

Btw (for all future ppl to post on here, so you don't have to look it up), Green SS is sellin for around 250k in trades

I think it's best if you hold off the Steaming Skeem Potion and Jittery Jipple Potion until it is known how it works.

We have a pretty good idea:

Seems for the JJP if you have intelegence of 9 or lower it only does 6 icons. Most pets seem to have atleast 10 by the time they are at the 55 boosts, but if they aren't you still have a 6 icon backup weapon. I figure it's worth it to do 10 icons against about 75% of the people you battle (my own personal opininon on how many percent of people that I verse have intel 10+, and I'm at the 55 boosts)

I assume SSP is similar, but just a slightly higher intel requirement

Edit: seems the SSP has been figured out too:

At this point I'm not sure which is better. The SSP obviously does 1 icon more, but less people are inclined to have the extra 10 intel points. Meh, I'm still getting one to try for myself. At the worst it's only 1 icon less than an Ice Club (what I have now, and what other people would use if they stick it in as thier backup weapon/sometimes main weapon) So in the set where I suggested just the SSP, you might want to consider the JJP instead....

Meh, I wouldn't really do anything with the set, except maybe get a Greater Healing Scroll to replace the scorchstone. Also, the wands are pretty useless, In my opinion. They're like down-powered Golden Compasses, except they defend against worse icon types. Not too helpful. Besides that, just train strentgh and defense until they equal health... and then train strength, defense, and HP equally. I wouldn't continue to train movement, but if you do, stop at 200... the ONLY application of movement is Heavy Robe Of Thievery. Also, when you hit the 125 boosts, I'd recomend picking up Bow of Destiny and/ or Wand of Reality.
