Gold prices have been rising again, with customers lining up on the sidewalks since early morning even though the gold shop had not opened yet. However, many people were shocked when the shop suddenly announced that each person could only buy 1 tael and left in anger.
At 7:30 this morning (November 15), many people came to Bao Tin Minh Chau gold shop (Tran Nhan Tong, Hanoi) waiting for opening time.
Sharing with PV. VietNamNet, Mr. Trung (Hai Ba Trung) said that he works as a food vendor. Yesterday, seeing many people buying gold, he decided to take a day off to go buy gold for his son's wedding.
“I hope the gold price will continue to drop this morning and the store will sell without limit, because I want to buy about 3-4 taels of gold,” said Mr. Trung.
However, at 9:30 a.m., when the two Bao Tin Minh Chau gold shops opened for sale, the staff suddenly announced that today each person could only buy 1 round gold ring; contrary to yesterday when the gold shop sold unlimited. Customers still had to take a number and wait for their turn to buy gold.
After hearing the announcement, Mr. Trung was stunned because he had taken a day off from selling but had only bought 1 tael of gold. "If I had known this would happen, I would not have come again. It would have been a waste of time and income, and I would not have been able to buy enough gold," he said, frustrated.
Ms. Lan (Thanh Tri, Hanoi) also expressed her indignation: "I left early in the morning with the intention of buying 2-3 taels of gold to pay off my debt, but the gold shop only sold 1 tael. I felt extremely disappointed."
According to the reporter's records, within just 5-10 minutes of opening, both gold shops on the "gold street" Tran Nhan Tong of Bao Tin Minh Chau had 50 waiting numbers. The staff said that this morning, the number of customers was limited to about 50-60 people.
Ms. Mai (Cau Giay, Hanoi) said she was unhappy because she could only buy 1 tael of gold, but it was better than not being able to buy anything. “This morning, it was very difficult to park my car in to buy gold. I had to park 300m away from the gold shop because the staff informed me that today there would be a limit on parking in front of the gold shop,” she said.
On the morning of November 15, it was observed that there were not as many customers coming to make transactions as yesterday. The time when customers were most concentrated was early in the morning, before the gold shop opened for sale.
When the announcement was made that each customer could only buy a maximum of 1 tael of gold, many people were shocked and left in anger.
Meanwhile, outside the store, many people still appeared to be “holding gold”. Whenever a customer came to the store to trade, they would approach them to offer to buy it back at a price 500,000 VND/tael higher than the official buying price.
Outside, some people approached customers and offered: "I accept unlimited purchases, sell gold to me, I will pay 500,000 VND/tael more than the gold shop's purchase price."
Sidewalk shops also saw gold trading. Some people, after not being able to buy gold at the store, went out to buy at a higher price to save time.
Today's gold price, November 15, 2024, domestic gold bars and plain rings suddenly increased sharply following the world gold price. Doji plain rings are priced at 81-82.7 million VND/tael (buy - sell), an increase of 1 million VND for buying and 600,000 VND for selling. SJC gold rings are listed at 79.3-81.8 million VND/tael, an increase of 300,000 VND/tael (buy).
SJC gold bars remain at 80-83.5 million VND/tael.
