According to Lao Dong reporters at 9:15 a.m. on January 25, at some gold shops in Hanoi, people's demand for gold has not decreased. Many people choose to line up in front of the door to wait to buy gold.
However, most stores announced that they do not have SJC gold bars and limit the number of 9999 round gold rings sold.
At a gold shop on Tran Nhan Tong Street (Hanoi), Ms. Nguyen Lan Nhi (Hai Ba Trung District, Hanoi) said: "Many times I came here to queue, but could not buy gold rings because the shop did not sell them. Today I came early, the staff announced that they would sell 2 taels of gold to each person. Currently, in front, there are also many people lining up. I am still waiting for my turn to make a transaction."
Mr. Bui Tuan Hoang (Dong Da district, Hanoi) - a customer who came to buy gold rings at a gold shop on Tran Nhan Tong street, Hanoi - shared: "For many days now, the shops have frequently announced that they are temporarily out of SJC gold bars and plain round gold rings or are selling in very small quantities.
At the end of the year, I took the opportunity to come here to buy gold rings as savings, but it was very difficult. It took me several days to come here continuously, and today I was able to buy 2 trees."
Mr. Hoang added that he will continue to go to the store the next day to wait to buy more plain round gold rings.
