Recorded by Lao Dong reporter at 10:05 today (November 21), the domestic price of plain round gold rings and gold bars remained unchanged at all brands. At a gold shop on Cau Giay Street, Hanoi, the scene of queuing up was once again bustling after the gold market "cooled down".
However, buyers can only hold plain round gold rings in hand if they trade 5 taels of gold. With a maximum of 10 taels of gold sold this morning, people will have to deposit money, after 10 days of receiving the product.
Ms. Phung Thu Thuy (Cau Giay, Hanoi) passed by the store so she took the opportunity to buy, said: "In 2019, I bought gold rings that only fluctuated around more than 30 million VND/tael. After that, I also sold it to switch to buying land. At that time, buying was not as easy as it is now, just need money to buy".
Meanwhile, many people are somewhat hesitant to buy gold to pay for their wedding anniversary. Ms. Do Minh Trang (Cau Dien, Hanoi) frankly shared: "Gold has increased, I do not intend to buy gold as a wedding gift, a burden for both sides. Some people have been playing with their best friend for 10 years, giving them 2 taels of gold rings as wedding gifts, but when they get married, that friend won't attend or send a happy message".
As for the elderly who come to buy gold like Mr. Tran Van Binh (Cau Giay, Hanoi), they want to buy more than 1 tael of gold rings with the help of family members.
"I usually carry cash when I buy gold, with the new regulation that over 20 million VND must be transferred, I call my son. When I need to transfer money, I will send my child a QR code via text message, the sales invoice is still my name, my citizen identification card" - Mr. Binh said.
