On March 19, although major gold brands in Ho Chi Minh City limited the quantity sold to customers, many people still waited to buy.
"At 12:30 at home, I saw a price of 98.50 million VND/tael, when I arrived at the store at 15:30, the gold price had reached 100 million VND/tael. Normally, I often buy a few just to save up, but now the price is high and the store is selling limited, so I buy less" - Ms. Dung, living in Binh Thanh District shared.
According to Lao Dong on March 19, at large gold shops in Ho Chi Minh City, there are only a few customers coming to sell gold, while the number of buyers is very large.
At Mi Hong store, each customer is only allowed to buy 1 tael of 9999 gold rings. As for SJC gold bars, depending on the available supply, some customers can buy them, some customers cannot. At times of the day, the shop announces that it is out of gold rings and gold bars.
"I often buy for storage, when I have money, I go buy without paying attention to the price. I have to wait 10-15 minutes to buy plain gold rings because there are quite a lot of customers" - Ms. Nguyen Van Anh, living in Go Vap district, said when buying gold at Mi Hong store.
At Saigon Jewelry Company - SJC (Nguyen Thi Minh Khai, District 3), the number of customers coming to buy is also bustling. To buy SJC gold bars, customers must register to buy online. If the order is successful, customers will come to the company to pay and then receive gold. For gold rings, each customer can only buy 1 tael/day, but the quantity is not much.
At the stores of Phu Nhuan Jewelry Joint Stock Company, during this period, customers were unlikely to buy gold bars or gold rings because they were out of stock.
As of 4:00 p.m. on March 19, in Ho Chi Minh City, the price of SJC gold bars was listed by Saigon Jewelry Company SJC and DOJI Group at 98.3-99.8 million VND/tael (buy in - sell out).
The price of gold rings at DOJI is listed at 98.6-100.2 million VND/tael (buy in - sell out). Saigon Jewelry Company SJC listed 98.2-99.7 (buy in - sell out).
